Can someone explain me the King Crimson and VDGG album's names?

Seriously, I never quite understand them... :/

H to He Who Am the Only One by far, even though it would fit a Fusion album better.

I just gave a hint at the VdGG album. A deuterium nucleus, that's hydrogen (H) with one neutron, and a tritium nucleus (hydrogen with two neutrons) can be joined to become one helium (He) nucleus with two neutrons, one neutron being fired off with high energy.
The title of the KC album refers to something culinary. Larks' tongues were highly valued as food and aspic is some gelatinous substance, not quite my taste.

Larks' Tongues in Aspic is tenable, so it gets my vote. What stellar fusion has to do with the latter part of Who Am The Only One's title is beyond me, and Tales From Topographic Oceans is just gibberish; thinking about it, its original title, Tales From Tobographic Oceans, actually is a neat little stellar ocean reference even if the science behind it is bunk.

Musically, hard to choose between Crimson and Generator.

H and He was refering to the elements? LOL I always thought that was some kind of word play. "H, to he (someone) who am ...." some kind of existencialism... that doesnt seems to make sense anyway.

And the other is a british strange eating stuff... well, that most certainly take away the mistery magic I had on that album. LOL

I don't really like any of these titles, but Tales from Topographic Oceans is probably the best sounding of these to me.

I'm not particularly fond of any of this titles, but "Tales from Topographic Oceans" sounds better for me.

Larks' Tongues in Aspic gets my vote as a title (and also for the music, but that's a different story). Anyway, the title does not refer to anything that is eaten in England, but rather to a delicacy that was often featured in Ancient Roman banquets.

I understand it was a favourite of Henry VIII's, but they never seem to have it at my local Tesco.
