Ranking the bands I'd always choose King Crimson first but I like quite a number of their albums more than Lark's. Same with Floyd/WYWH (no. 2 band here).
So the best albums are Thick as a Brick > CTTE of the bands that share rank 3 and 4.

Larks has 15 minutes of filler
|
|
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

^ That 15 minutes I assume you're referring to is no less than the greatest musical achievement of the 20th century to my ears. Please don't reduce it to a mere 'filler' only because you don't grasp it.

"Larks' tongues. Wrens' livers. Chaffinch brains. Jaguars' earlobes. Wolf nipple chips. Get 'em while they're hot. They're lovely. Dromedary pretzels, only half a denar."

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution
