Good matchup imo. Larks is my least favorite of the bunch, but red is by far my favorite so I vote KC

Again you pick out 4 of my favorite albums, but King Crimson wins again, especially when Red is involved.

KC. Rush blows.

This is way closer than I would have thought it'd be.  Rush fans lurking around in the forum, I guess.  And maybe KC fans need to wakey-wakey from complacent slumber as there is a challenger in these parts now.  For me, it's KC.  I love both those Rush albums but Red is among maybe 5-6 albums across genres I would take to the proverbial deserted island.

If it had been Farewell To Kings and Moving Pictures then I would have voted Rush although I realise that the grouping in the poll makes more sense.

I really like these two Rush albums, but King Crimson takes my vote. No question.

Those are the best KC albums, perhaps the best albums in the history of man-made music. But I discovered the Crim only a couple of decades ago, whereas I heard Rush practically from the cradle, so from the bottom of my heart, I'd go for Rush. And on top of it, Hemispheres is my favorite Rush album, and Cygnus X-1, my favorite song!

Rush is one of my all time favorite bands and so is King Crimson ... but you have picked my favorite Rush albums so I voted for them. Larks and Red are great albums I'm very familiar with.

Love KC but it has to be Rush. They were my first prog love.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!
