Dude... Starless... How are we even discussing this? No disrespect to those who prefer Poseidon intended, though. But Starless is the best song ever. Like, THE best song. Ever. |

Poseidon. Starless is mostly instrumental and I prefer tracks with vocals.

Starless over In the Wake of Posiedon, for sure. But I would take Poseidon over the title track from Starless and Bible Black. ------------- Want to play mafia? Visit http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com" rel="nofollow - here . |

Poseidon is top 5 material for me, honestly. And yet Starless still gets my vote. It's that good. ------------- My other avatar is a Porsche It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle if it is lightly greased. -Kehlog Albran |

Hi,
I've always thought that the "Poseidon" album was horribly overblown and probably an attempt by someone at the record company to pull off a type of Moody Blues hip/cool thing. Oh, an album about Poseidon, would be excellent!
I can hear the words now!
By the time Red and Starless came around, I seriously doubt that King Crimson, was going to play that record company bs that they put up with in their first albums. Unlike the first 3 albums, these two albums are very well focused and strong, and not depended on idealistic and any other notions. ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!

I think, that 'In the Wake of Poseidon', including the title track, is a mere repetition of themes that were already present on ITCOTCK, and contains also a mediocre interpretation of a piece by Gustav Holst. In my opinion, ITWOP is one of the weaker albums of King Crimson, but considering their full discography, it is still quite good. Voted Starless, no doubt. ------------- http://theprogressiveweb.blogspot.de" rel="nofollow - Visit me in Second Life to talk about music. |

I like both, but I prefer Starless.

| Posseidon is a very nice song, but even Lake's vocals won't make it win against Starless for me. |

Gotta be Starless, but Poseidon is really good too. Doesn't get enough credit IMO
