Bravo Eduardo,
I'm agree with you, as it often happens, : Lizard and Islands are quite different, but represent the top in musical research for KC. If I had to summarize I'd say L is more rich from the musical point of view, but I. is very emotional and "stoned"...I can hardly define Red prog, cause of flatness and heavy of its sound

ELP's debut for me. However, if you were to switch Trespass with Wind and wuthering, I'd take that. I know it doesn' t contain Hackett or Collins, but there's no reason it shouldn't be rated nearly the same as than the 71-74 albums.

Gentle Giant - Interview

King Crimson - Islands is rather overrated, IMO!
RIO/AVANT/ZEUHL - The best thing you can get with yer pants on!

I think Islands along with Lizard are the best albums by Crimson. Much better, more original and with better songwriting than RED, the most overrated.

 Islands presents the best effort by Crimson as far as composition goes. That "sailorīs tale" is fantastic with great passages and well thought changes of melodies.

ELP's self-titled debut , in my opinion, is rather underrated in comparison to Tarkus and especially BSS. I love ELP's first, which contains some of their best-ever tracks, like The Barbarian and Take a Pebble.

Islands, of course, my favourite King Crimson album. a wonderful mix between "noise" and introspective sounds. I definitely loved it since I've been in Formentera, the island who inspired it and the place which still has a hippies comunity: I found music and environment perfecly embraced.

I think Interview doesn't demand more than it has...

I agree, these are both great albums that deserve more attention.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Better than Selling England by the Pound if you ask me, but certainly below Foxtrot and Nursery Cryme
