'Islands'! I love the song and the album a lot. I could see why it is considered 'floppy' but this is not really the case. It is one of the many enjoyable albums by KC for me.

Out of those I would vote for King Crimson.

I was lucky enough to see KC live in 2019. And listening to "Islands" is one of my fondest memories of that wonderful concert
