I've gotta go with classic Crimson here. That's what I originally heard, and most likely therefore most biased to.

No order:

In The Court Of The Crimson King

Starless And Bible Black

Red

Lark's Tongues In Aspic

Lizard

I don't understand why so many people chose Red as their favorite... I think Fallen Angel and One More Red Nightmare are the least imaginative songs of this line-up...

1. Lizard
2. Starless And Bible Black
3. In The Court
4. Lark's Tongues
5. Islands

I go for the ProjeKcts. This is the Crimson I listen to most. Abstract, instrumental, captivating and gorgeous.

And honestly said, most of the studio material doesn't match the quality of the live recordings.

Honestly, it's not the album I like so much, but the material from it performed live.  Historical importance be damned, that's the one I'm loving the most right now.

Top 5 right now:

1)  ConstruKction of Light
2)  Power To Believe
3)  Red
4)  ITCHYCOCK
5)  Happy With What You Have To Be Happy With

Edit:  Someone reply to my thread.

I can't vote. They have so many great and different albums. I almost equally love Larks' Tongues, Lizard, Islands and Discipline.
