	for my money "The Great Deciever" box set, though released in the 90's, is what the 70's King Crimson is all about. The albums tamed a band that was meant to take improvisatory leaps onstage. Given the choices, I voted for Larks' Tongues in Aspic, because Jamie Muir still plays on that album, and the compositions heavily bear the mark of having gone through an improvisation stage. -ET

	Shouldn't really include a compilation (Young Person's Guide) here. All good, but USA rocks! I LOVE "Asbury Park" -- it alone is worth the price!

	Ha ha, I thought it'd be ok to omit Earthbound, and just give USA as a live option.

	What about Earthbound? Can't we vote for Earthbound? Just kidding. I voted for Lark's Tongues because of Jamie Muir's percussion.
