Both of these albums are the 3rd album in each respective bands discography but which one do you like more??

Gentle Giant Three Friends. Jon Anderson's cameo is nice, though!

Three Friends is great.
Lizard isn't.

Two long lasting favorites containing some of prog's absolute peaks for me = Prologue/Schooldays and the Lizard-multipart suite. Gave my vote to the latter as there's very little in all of music that transcends me to some kind of dreamy, fairytaleish universe... you know quite like the lazy & misunderstood parody of what prog is supposed to be about for all those boring rockers who loathes it - I guess.

GG this time, because Schooldays is their best song by far in my opinion.

I really, really like both just about equally, it just depends on the mood I'm in, so no vote.

Lizard. For one thing, Lizard ranks higher among my favorite KC albums than Three Friends does among my favorite GG albums.

A toss up. Both masterpieces for me...took me months to fully appreciate Lizard where I loved Three Friends on the 1st listen. Today the vote goes to Three Friends, though tomorrow it just might be Lizard

This is a very good album match-up, I think, and both rank amongst my very favourite albums by each band. If "both" were an option then I would go with that, but I gave it to Lizard particularly for the suite. Over the last few years, Lizard and Islands have been the KC albums I've turned to the most.
You're in good, or bad depending upon one's perspective, company. I disagree with both you and Fripp (rather like I disagree with Waters and Gilmour's comments on Atom Heart Mother). An interesting article about this divisive album (mostly divisive when it comes to KC fans methinks of which you are not, mind you: http://ultimateclassicrock.com/king-crimson-lizard/ Better to read the article in full at the site, but here are excerpts from the article which quote Fripp:
I am very strange, and the older I get the more comfortable I am with not hiding my own eccentricities and appreciation for the strange. |

Love The Giant, but definitely Lizard. It's an album I've lived with for a long time. It's always felt like little else out there in the world. And it has seemed greater and greater to me with every year.
