Schizoid. Because of Lake Big smile 
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I voted for "Moonchild". "In the Wake of Poseidon" is a bit like "In the Court of the Crimson King", and some tracks can even be directly compared to tracks from the predecessor. ("Pictures of a City" is like "21st Century Schizoid Man", "In the Wake of Poseidon" is like "Epitaph" and "Cadence and Cascade" is like "I Talk to the Wind". But "Cat Food" (the best track on "Wake") and "The Devil's Triangle" don't really have an equivalent on "Court", and the little "Peace" tracks add a nice flavour.

Has this poll turned to be a competition between ITCOTCK and ITWOP?

Anyway it's a close call between 21st and I Talk To The Wind but I'm going with the mellow masterpiece.

I like "Pictures of a City" and "In the Wake of Poseidon" and even "Cat Food" better than "Moonchild".
But that's just me.

Epitaph, although 21st Century Schizoid Man is breathtaking as well. I love Mike Giles' drumming on Epitaph.

In The Wake of Poseidon always felt to me like a repetition of the formula of the debut, but with none of the magic. I don't know exactly why, but it just doesn't work. So while the debut is one of my favorite albums of all time, In the Wake is not even in my top five King Crimson albums.

18 right here, can't for the life of me figure out how anyone would prefer Wake. Court seems plainly superior in every way to me.


You must be female or close to it


i hope that's not meant to be a serious insult... gonna call me a beta male next?

some of your logic is questionable to me... "schizoid is a bit of a Beatles copy during the verses"? really? feels like you're just grasping for any possible reason to say it's worse than In The Wake

Schizoid Man is just dirty. One of my favourite songs ever.

Bloody lake should have stayed for lizard and islands. Giles too. Those albums would have been better and the band would have been more settled. We may have seen a 1972 studio album too. Tippet, sinfield and Collins hung around for lizard and islands.

I have Poseidon all ready to play in half an hour for my weights session. Pictures, Poseidon, cat, cadence, groon and even triangle will be pumping. Epitaph and court are lacking the colour of the above slightly and schizoid is a bit of a Beatles copy during the verses. The debut album is a bit raw.

yeaaaaaah, no.


ITCOTCK and ITWOP are like two girls who are completely identical, physically and mentally, except one (Court) has bigger tits. Most would take the one with bigger tits but some would prefer the other.
I know, weird ass analogy.

not bad... not bad at all

In his Crimson Majesty's Court.

That tits comparison was amusing by the way. I couldn't contain myself. LOL
