I vote for 'Larks Tongues'.. I love them both (See my reviews) but I think 'Larks Tongues' has aged better, And it's my favourite...

Lizard is my personal favorite. They both incredible amounts of personality, but Lizard just gets it because I never get sick of it. I mean, LTIA part 1 definitely gets wearisome for me.

Lark's Tongue, but if Jamie Muir, would not have been in that album, Lizard would be my choice.

They Both are so different I dont think I can Pick One
Maybe if the poll was asking something more specific about the two LP's Like wich was a better addition Wetton ore Haskell. Then I think we could (maybe) decide.
(I still couldnt)

Lizard was great, very symphonic and even teatrical with Haskells deep voice and also great wind instruments! But Lark´s is not even one step forward in music...its a whole kilometer! This album is so adventurous and at the same time quite easy to enjoy...excellent, the best after ITCOTCK!!!

ISN'T IT!! I love that bolero, Is it the flute that plays that wonderful melody or is it some sort of horn? I might be a little vague here, But it gets slightly quieter and this wonderful melody enters, Comes in a few times

I have to say Larks, but Lizard is great as well. It's hard to compare them, they're so different.

These are the only two Crimson albums I own.
I like Lizard more, Cirkus is a good track.
