These are all great songs, but my vote has to go to the seminal  LTiA Pt. 2, which defines KC.

Very tough choice. Went with Easy Money - well, just because...

All great KC songs, but Lark's Tongue 2 takes the prize.

As much as I like all the others, I had to vote for "Discipline". The guitar (and stick) work between Fripp, Belew, and Levin is mesmerizing.  In fact, I like the whole album.

All of these are fantastic. I went with LTIA Pt. 2, but Frame by Frame is a very, very close second.

Of the studio versions, I prefer LTiA2, so I voted for it. But a recent live version of Easy Money is at least as good.

All great choices (and tough!).
Went with Larks.
