Is this someone's idea of clever 'cause it ain't.

1. Epitaph.
2. Starless.
3. Larks Tongues in Aspic pt 2.
4. The Court of the Crimson King.
5. Exiles.

For first place, it could just as well have been Starless, but given how much more of a favourite it is, I thought about giving the nod to Epitaph.

I haven't, but I'm one of the two, it seems, who reviewed it with 5 stars, so I express my solidarity here... Sartori in Tangier and Neil and Jack and Me would be well worthwhile, but then 5 KC-songs are very hard to pick. (I guess I'm the only one who picked two from Three of a Perfect Pair.)

I know that you and I have somewhat different tastes, based on your choice of VdGG tracks. It seems to me that your taste in music is more sedate than mine.
 
 
 
You're right. I do tend to prefer the mellower songs, especially when it comes to King Crimson and Van der Graaf Generator.
 
 My prediction is that Ashes Are Burning will win my latest Renaissance poll, although I could be wrong again. Smile

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.
