All of them except the 2 Projekct albums and Scarcity, but I got a lot of live albums and the ultimate Great Deceiver box set

Same here.

Everything up to and including Discipline.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

'69-'81 minus In The Wake ... .

Is this one any good?

King Crimson A Scarcity of Miracles (a King Crimson Projekct by Jakszyk, Fripp and Collins) album cover

A very good album, but not one of their best IMO. Doesn't really have the same sound as King Crimson - as "Ian" said, like a Jakko Jakszyk solo album Smile

Crushed like a rose in the riverflow.

I bought the only album I could find in the stores;
The Condensed 21st Century Guide to King Crimson 1969-1974

It's kind of their bests, but I'm still looking for their first album.

In the court-7/10(A couple of strong tracks but fairly dated. Compositions a bit raw. Overdose of mellotron)

In the wake-8.5/10(Strong compositions. Good variety or style)

Lizard-8/10(Similar to previous album but Haskells voice doesn't suit this music at all)

Larks-7.5/10(Some strong moments, some filler. Slower compositions the best. I only like Wettons voice on slower tracks)

Red-7.5/10(Heavier tracks better than previous album, but less slower tracks)

Starless-6/10(A couple of good tracks, bit disappointing otherwise)

Discipline-7.5/10(Solid album)

Three of a-8/10(Pretty good apart from that crap Sleepless song)

They produced their best melodies around 1970-71. Then they replaced the whole band pretty much. I like the slower stuff from the Wetton era mainly but it was a shame they split up around 1971. A few more years of Giles, Giles, Lake, Sinfield, Collins, Fripp may have seen Crimson as one of my fave 70s bands. But as it stands they are probably not even top 20 or the 70s. But their early 80s was pretty good. So overall they are around top 15 bands looking at the whole career

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.
