I Talk to the Wind and Cirkus are my favorites from that list, but I just had to go with ITttW.

The Night Watch, followed by Cirkus.

to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

The latest incarnation of the band has really revitalized the Islands material for me, so The Letters for today.

The damage that we do just goes on and on and on but not long enough.

I'll give The Night Watch my vote. Wetton's vocals, the imagery in the lyrics and the haunting musical backing give it a timeless quality. I do like I Talk to the Wind and Exiles amongst many others listed.

Lizard isn't one of my favorite albums by them, but "Cirkus" is easily one of their best songs full-stop.

Cirkus with Banning Cocq and his shooting stars as runner-up.

Frame By Frame is close though. 
New album!

The Night Watch is one of the few things Crimson have done that I like.

The Letters just kicks my a-- but CirKus and In the Wake are only molecules behind. Actually love the first 8 tracks listed here and could have voted for any of them. After that, the remaining tracks are enjoyable but not nearly so as the first eight.

I extend the voting range to Fame by Frame. Cirkus and Fallen Angel close behind.

Make mine "Night Watch," I've always loved that song.  The fact that it was recorded live makes it especially interesting.

Very hard choice really. I guess I'll go for Exiles, that sublime song that means so much to me, but all the rest are fantastic.

In the Wake of Poseidon, though it could just as well have been Exiles.
