Oh, and Happy Family....I don't really get into Crimson until the Lizard album.

Keith Tippett! If you dig KT, I recommend his then future wife Julie Driscoll's 1969 album....or any of the stuff she was doing with Brian Auger.
Oh, and Centipede! Tippett really has/had a groovy avant style....highly listenable yet highly expirimental.

I like both equally but I vote Cat food because I love Lake's voice even though this is not the song his vocal style fits in.

^ With Keith Tippet's piano and all?
Now, the live version withoug Tippet's piano and louder bass and drums does sound more like a typical rock song. |

Happy Family is one of my favorite KC songs. Cat Food, while good, is probably the closest KC has ever sounded to you're typical rock group.

It's not THAT strange. People have different opinions.

The piano part at the end of Cat Food is great, but I can never fully enjoy it because of the lyrics.
I like all of Lizard including Happy Family, so that gets my vote.

"Cat Food" is of course a song about human food, or more specifically about instant meals. So both "cat food" and "not even firt for a horse" are derogatory expressions for it. |

One hand clap. Four went out but none came back.

Happy Family wins easily for me. Not too sure about Sinfield's lyric for Cat Food, although granted it's a fun song. But "I tell you that it's cat food, not even fit for a horse"? So you'd feed it to your cat but not your horse? Pete must not be a cat lover.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I just listened to both songs again. I had completely forgotten how very danceable "Happy Family" is. It will definitely run on our next party.
