For me it's Greg Lake. THE voice of King Crimson (and ELP).

He made the first both records to something special with his vocals.

I also like John Wetton's voice, but he doesn't sound as charismatic (exception may be "Starless" from Red) as Lake to me, like no one does.

Bellew. Not only because of his voice, because of his Persona. His ability
as a songwriter, guitarist, lyricist, his view of the world. The most
expressive musician in KC (Fripp the most introspective).

I think all three major singers were the perfect for the band at the time. Mk 1 without Lake?? Larks' and Red without Wetton? Discipline and Power to Believe without Belew? They're all tops, and they're so personal that it is difficult to pick one. Wetton got my vote thanks to singing on more songs that gives me goose bumps than the other two. And to keep the competition up.
