Which one gets the nod for you??

KC by a mile. Can't remember the last time I listen to Tull.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

About 20 years ago I would have said JT, but KC has really grown on me over the years, so KC it is.

KC is the most ground breaking and innovative of the two and has more albums that I put in my personal top 50 than JT does

KC is more important to prog in the grand scheme of things, but I far prefer listening to Tull. KC leaves me cold.

KC is the only big 6 band in my personal big 5. I love a lot of Tull but they're not quite up there.

King Crimson.  Nobody beats KC for being influential to all music.  Even though I'm also a big fan of JT, Crimson is my all-time most favorite band.

they are very different, anyway, I think KC have touched some peaks that Tull's never reached.

Tull easy. I’d take the trilogy of box sets from 77-79 and 71-73 over any crimson album really. Poseidon is up there though
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

Too close for me to choose. I went with Tull just because they are behind.

The Stormwatch remix basically has 71-74 crimson covered on it’s own
