Other than maybe U.K., I don't see these discussed too often. What do you think of them?

Welcome to PA!  Your first post is impressive! 

Generally, they are quite excellent!  Fripp excelled at recruiting amazing musicians as sidemen, and my favorite of these would be UK. 

This is a remarkable version of ITCOTCK, featuring Wetton, McDonald and Steve Hackett:

Also 21st Century Schizoid Band, featuring Mel Collins, Michael Giles (later replaced by Ian Wallace), Peter Giles, Ian McDonald and Jakko Jackszyk. Although they have only toured live, with no own studio albums.
