This is a continuation of my previous poll: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=89972
 
This time I think the result will not be as clear.

Hmmm..no criticism this time of it being bits and pieces put together.

Anyway.....much as I  dislike the subliminal messaging, I voted Excellent even though I'm tempted to say it's crap. This is excellent and so is Supper's Ready.

I voted excellent cause "I like it" doesn't express my feelings about it, but as much as I adore KC I think it's not perfect. It is brought down by Happy Family and Indoor Games, other than that it's excellent.

One of my favorite King Crimson songs (and indeed albums) and that's saying a lot.

In that case I'm glad I voted Excellent. It is really one of my favorite pieces of prog, and it doesn't seem to me as a patchwork at all.

I have to say it's been a real grower! These days it's probably my track of extended length.

I like it, even if tracks 2 and 3 are too Gentle-Gianty.

I think "Lizard" excellent.
