Yeah, I thought that Cat Food should be a chosen one too... but there HAD to be a Mellotron / Flute led song among the lot, and if I didn't include ItWoP, then I would have had to include Epitaph or The Court of the Crimson King, and for doing that I would have had to leave 21st Century Schizoid Man out.

1. In the Court of The Crimson King
2. 21st Century Schizoid Man
-- Two markedly different compositions bookending their debut album. They are at different ends of the prog spectrum: one is heavy mellotron and symphonic, the other has elements of heavy metal and jazz fusion.

3. Cat Food
4. Cirkus
5. Lark's Tongue in Aspic, Part One
6. Book of Saturdays
7. The Night Watch
8. Fracture
9. Red
10. Starless
...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

This is so difficult but I think your list really spreads around their diversity. But all are excellent.

But Cat Food was also a single (albeit shorter), so it doesn't have to bump Poseidon out. Wink

How about a list based not only on diversity, but also on the oddest tracks:
 
1. The World is My Oyster Soup Kitchen Floor Wax Museum 
2. Moonchild
3. Cat Food (I think this should be melded with the b-side "Groon" like on "A Young Person's Guide...")
4. Happy Family
5. Ladies of the Road
6. Larks' Tongues in Aspic Part I
7. Neurotica
8. The Sheltering Sky
9. Industry
10. Sex Sleep Eat Drink Dream

Or I just do it like Dark Elf that included Schizoid Man and Court because of how different they are, and then include Cat Food too... though then I would have to choose one other song to leave out from the rest of the list.

In the Wake could substitute for In The Court. It gets the point across.

Yeah, that was my original thinking... but then we are missing Cat Food.
