How did I not see this thread back in August? It's RED, baby! It goes to show how much talent this version of Crimso' had in its collective little finger.

ITCOCK because I prefer Symphonic Prog to Experimental prog but the others are also great.

These are all essentially my top KC choices...but I have to give it to Lark's Tongue.

Lizard man... But I dont know if I wouldnt have picked starless and bible instead. But anyways pretty much what I think is the essence of what I love about prog.

Red is probably my overall favourite, but these albums are all so different, and some days I'd much rather listen to Lizard or ITWOP. Depends on the mood.
I' guess I'll vote Red. |

All 4/5 stars albums, but it's Lizard just over Larks for me.

All five are great and at some point they have been my favorite. I'll give Discipline some love today.

I like Court and Red (Starless is my fave KC song period) but Lizard has a special vibe to it that makes it stand out from other albums. To me it's got a sorta fairytale-ish feel with Tippett's smeary piano, the horns and everything. Oh and I love the title suite. Jon Anderson's la la la's, the Bolero jazz section and the soulful battle sequence are done with such elegance and tastefulness.

It may be cliche, but I went with Court. But really, how does one decide. This is an incredible lineup. I'm always hearing something new each time I listen to any of these albums. It often seems that I often change my mind and the one I think is the best is the one I'm listening to at that moment.

Wow, I must be some sort of KC minority. Starless would be 1st, followed by Larks, then Lizard/Wake/Islands, then Red. The Thraks and Vrooms I cannot differentiate from but they are all great, too. And don't forget The Power To Believe. Anything left out is worth a listen, also.
