Both are kind of weird especially "the Devil's Triangle."

I'm guessing these three people who voted never heard the second King Crimson album. :)

Love both but Moonchild's great. The first part is classic and the jam is really inspired.

KC's debut has a strange following here.

I was always quite disappointed by Devil's Triangle, especially given the piece it's based on, their adaptation doesn't do it justice, and it does meander quite aimlessly. So does Moonchild, but it in a more satisfactory way. Moonchild.

The first side of ITWOP in particular is quite underrated here though.

What I get from it is that you are probably implying I'm not "Prog" enough for not liking them.

Devil's Triangle, if only because Fripp was sued by the estate of Gustav Holst for blatantly ripping off the theme from "Mars!"  

Neither is my favorite KC song at all.

Call her moonchild Dancing in the shallows of a river Lovely moonchild Dreaming in the shadow of the willow.
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

I would have to say..........'The Devil's Triangle' - mellotron madness, tritones, marching rhythm - doomy !! Excellent piece which knocked me out the first time I heard it back in '88. Love 'Moonchild' too but not as much.
