King Crimson vs Talking Heads

An easy choice: Remain in Light.

I do like the Discipline album, but the distance and chilliness that I sense in its music means that can not entirely relate to it. Remain in Light, on the other hand, is one of the best and most important albums in rock history. There was nothing quite like it before, and its way of mixing rock and funk with African music opend up for new possibilities. That said, the albums are not that different after all, and I think Adrian Belew performed on Remain In Light too (the solo guitar in "Born Under Punches"?)

But my favourite Talking Heads album is actually Fear of Music.

	I prefer Remain in Light. Discipline never really appealed to me.
	Just a fanboy passin' through.
