*head explodes*
Bruford Cross Fripp Wetton versus Belew Bruford Fripp Levin... that is nigh impossible a choice to make.

1974 without question. I don't care for the Talking Head-era KC as much.

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

From the '80s: One great album and two just okay. From the '74 lineup (including Lark's Tongue): Two great albums and one mind blowing masterpiece.
Need I say more?

No contest. The '81 lineup stands for one of the most overrated albums in prog history.
