ITCOTKC is my favorite album by either band though.

When I was getting into prog in the mid-70s, KC were already defunct.  I heard 'Relayer' and that was it.  As a teenager, I didn't bother to investigate a band that I would never see live.

Apparently Rick was quite enebriated whilst laying down the second Mini-Moog solo on Merlin 🤪

I'm surprised that Yes is winning considering that King Crimson seem to be a bit more popular these days.

Yes always seemed a bit "polished" to me in their sound, so my vote was for Crimson.

I won't go into the Gorey details, but I scored my top 5 Yes albums against my top 5 KC albums, and Yes won by half a point out of about 40-something
