Tough to rank, since each has disparate material that generally captures all of their power.

 
Good choices!
 
 
 
Thanks; you're too kind.  I could go six and still leave off killer stuff!

I don't even have 3 albums by King Crimson. I kept meaning to get SABB because it was the only one whose sample song was remotely interesting, but I never did.

Agreed.  The only use of the word "first" in this post is in relation to it being the first of the Wetton-era albums.  Which, hopefully, we can all agree is absolutely true.  At least as far as studio albums are concerned.  He does not say that it was the first time that chaos was created in music, merely that the music on this album was chaotic.

Thank you both for deffending me but I did claim that (at least in rock) what KC did was a new chaotic sound that as far as I know (and I may be wrong here) never heared before. One can claim that The nice for example has done such before but I feel that KC did something very different.
