I love the whole album but nothing can compete with the beauty that is The Sheltering Sky. Some of the sounds on it genuinely comes off as a mix of an elephant trumpet (whatever that is) and a sonic lightsaber. Goosebumps City for sure. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” - Douglas Adams |

"Indiscipline" and "The Sheltering Sky", but the whole album is a masterpiece, a true trailblazer of modern progressive rock. |

I am not a fan of this album; I'd call it average. Nevertheless, there is no average without deviation. The Sheltering Sky is really good. -------------

From the album, Frame by Frame. But live versions of Indiscipline are the best. ------------- "Hey there, Dog Man, now I drink from your bowl." |

Indiscipline for me, the best track of the period along with Three of a Perfect Pair...what? ------------- Progrockdude |

Thela Hun Ginjeet always makes me excited. Love Belew's storytelling  ------------- Crushed like a rose in the riverflow. |

Ditto Thela Hun Ginjeet, because of the song's amazing energy, and its equally amazing back-story. But I almost chose The Sheltering Sky, for sheer ethereal beauty...all created off the cuff and on the spot, which of course is the hallmark of a Crimson classic. ------------- "we can change the world without anyone noticing the difference" - Franco Falsini |

| Back in the 80s I would have said Thela Hun Ginjeet, but now I say Frame By Frame. |

An absolutely five star album for me. Favourite song: Elephant talk, what an opener!  -------------

Frame by Frame followed very, very closely by Sheltering Sky, followed by Matte Kudasai and Indiscipline (tie). Got this album the day it came out accompanied by the final dose of Uncle Syd taken in my life. I saw God. (Figuratively) ------------- PROGMATIC |

| So many great choices, but I went with "The Sheltering Sky" like the last time on some other poll. |

"Discipline" is possibly my favorite song by my favorite band. The great majority of metal or avant prog bands can only dream of being as intricate, intense, and flat-out exciting! ------------- I am the funkiest man on the planet! |

King Crimson had never been so intricate, complex, and precise as they were on this album. The sound was totally different but the insanity was still there, more sharply focused and finely-tuned. One of my favorite albums of theirs. I vote the(la) Hun once again for it's story within a story frenzy. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Frame.....though the 3 first Belew albums are my least favorite KC works. I prefer the later Belew albums. ------------- One does nothing yet nothing is left undone. Haquin |

Very hard but went for Matte Kudasai out of sheer beauty. The first four tracks are all fantastic however. -------------

A fine album, and a very difficult choice. The title track is real groovy, and it could use a few more votes so... ------------- https://gabebuller.bandcamp.com/" rel="nofollow - New album! http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=7385" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=7385 |

| Discipline was such a depressing bore after Red that I care not to vote. The next two albums showed a little more flare. |

This is way too hard. Unable to vote because I can't pick a "favorite," though "Thela," "Indiscipline" and "Sheltering Sky" have mileage to spare. ------------- https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_ipg=50&_sop=1&_rdc=1&_ssn=musicosm" rel="nofollow - eBay |

And it may not be the last. The thing just put me off. I never saw Belew as a suitable singer for the band, either. The supporting concert was enjoyable, though, and I even met Fripp in the lobby! As for the follow-ups, there was a little more emotion in them which raised the spirit of things a tad, but as a whole this post-Red triad of albums wasn't exactly a step forward since what was earlier accomplished. |

So many to choose from but "Discipline" blows me away today just as much as it did when I first saw it in concert in 1982. Tony Levin is in a league all his own. ------------- Drew Fisher https://progisaliveandwell.blogspot.com/ |
