Most serious Crimson fans will argue over this one even with
themselves. For example, today my favorite from "Starless and
Bible Black" is "We'll Let You Know," but tomorrow I might list
"Fracture" or "Trio" or something else entirely.
A more provocative question: what's your least favorite track from each album?

- In the Court of the Crimson King - title track, but they are all very close
- In the Wake of Poseidon - titile track or Cadence and Cascade
- Lizard - Lizard...specifically, Prince Rupert Awakes
- Islands - Sailors Tale
- Earthbound - 21st Century Schizoid Man
- Larks Tongues in Aspic - Easy Money
- Starless and Bible Black - Night Watch or Lament
- Red - Fallen Angel
- USA - Easy Money
That's all I've heard folks.
Now to answer Black Max's question (least favorite from each album):
- ITCotCK - none
- ItWoP - none (the first two albums were masterpieces)
- Lizard - Indoor Games
- Islands - the Letters
- Earthbound - can't decide (all songs are consederably weak do to naff production, making it hard to judge by merit of the performance)
- LTiA - Larks Tongues in Aspic Part 2
- SaBB - the Great Deceiver
- Red - Providence or One More Red Nightmare
- USA - can't decide (live albums are tough)

This is hard and it depends on my mood. I think there's sometimes a difference between "best" and "what draws me back to listen to the most", that is, there are some songs I think are brilliant and enjoy but my own little musical peccadillos (and sick sense of humour) draw me to something else.
By analogy, I have met people who I admire greatly for their achievements or service to others, but they aren't necessarily the people I like best. So here are my "best friends" on each of the albums:
In the court of the Crimson King - Epitaph (Schizoid Man is probably the "best")
In The Wake of Poseidon - Cat Food (Devil's Triangle/Mars = best)
Lizard - Indoor Games (Prince Rupert suite = best)
Islands - Ladies of the Road (Formentera Lady and Sailor's Tale = best)
Lark's Tongues In Aspic - Easy Money (LTIA Pt I = best)
Starless and Bible Black - The Great Deceiver (Fracture = best)
Red - Starless
Discipline - Frame By Frame, Thela Hun Ginjeet, Elephant Talk Discipline and The Sheltering Sky are the best :)
Beat - Neurotica (but Waiting Man is impressive)
Three of a Perfect Pair - TOAPP (LTIA III is the most impressive)
VROOOM - I don't know it very well
ThraK - Dinosaur
The ConstruKtion of Light - LTIA Pt IV / Coda
The Power to Believe - I don't know it very well

In the court of the crimson king-21st century schizoid man(Most of the other songs are boringish)
In the wake of poseidon-Pictures of a city(great album)
Lizard-Lizard(happy family is a bit sh*t)
Islands-can't remember the album well ;)
Larks tongue in aspic-Book of Saturday(easy money is mediocre)
Red-Red(Not enough keyboards or jazz drumming on this album)
Starless and bible black-Night**tchman(mediocre album)
Beat-can't remember the album well ;)
Discipline-Frame by frame(one of crimsons best songs)
Three of a perfect pair-Three of a perfect pair(sleepless is sh*t)
Thrak-inner garden
I haven't listened to the albums in red font too many times. In the wake of Posiedon is the only classic in the crimson catalogue imo. It has the best song writing and has plenty of keys and good vocals which the Wetton era lacks ;)

I think there's difference between best and favorite, so I'll list both, favorite first:
ITCOTCK - 21st Century Schizzy Man (best is Epitaph) ITWOP - Cat Food, (best is In the Wake of Poseidon) Lizard - Happy Family, (best is Cirkus, the title track comes close, but it drags on a bit too much) Islands - Ladies of the Road (both fav and best) LTIA - LTIA pt. 1 (both fav and best) SABB - The Great Deceiver, (best is Fracture) Red - Starless (both fav and best) Discipline - Elephant Talk, (best is Discipline) Beat - <don't like this album>
TOAPP - LTIA pt. 3, (best is Three of a Perfect Pair, because that was the sound they were going for at the time) Thrak - Dinosaur, (dunno the album well enough to say which is best) The Power to Believe - Facts of Life, (best is Level Five)

For me ... LTiA pt 1. LOVE that..
Starless and Bible Black - Trio/The Night Watch tough one... but as much as I love Fracture... the opening track just gets me going.. like gas on a fire. Great Deciever 
Red - Starless  
Discipline - The Sheltering Sky not an album I like.. I did like that one

nice.. and rather close to my own

A few changes for me.
The ConstruKction of Light title track has gotten to me. Apologies to LTIA #812. The live version on Heavy ConstruKction is awesome too.
Power to Believe - only got it recently. EleKtriK, or TPTB II? Hmmm
