I can't really make a decision.

And by that I treat them equally, so seeing as Rush are a bit behind I'll bump them up one.

Rush's songs sound a little bit similar to me and this last comment does not mean in any way that I don't like Rush. But King Crimson win this time.


good post and you hit the nail on the head about why KC is so damn interesting..


Seconded

RIP in bossa nova heaven.

I'm not a really a Rush fan, but I do really like there music. Same with King Crimson, but I like them a little more than Rush.

I don't 'love' Rush, but I do like them. I don't 'hate' Crimson, but I'm not keen on them.
 
Of course, I voted for Rush!LOL

King Crimson by a lightyear. Musically much more original.
