Never liked Talking Heads even if I respect them. Byrne is quite a genius, the fact that I don't like them is just a queston of personal tastes. Of course my vote goes to Discipline. ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

Love both, but Discipline (one of my fav KC albums) has the edge here. |

I don't like either of these much more than a bit. Yet I vote for Remain in Light here. The Talking Heads didn't do any better as far as I know, and King Crimson didn't do any worse. -------------

No vote. I accept that David Byrne and Robert Fripp both border on genius, but I simply don't like the music they produce at all. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

Remain in Light 'cos there are no weak moments on this album. Discipline's closer track is a bit of letdown for an album like that. ------------- This night wounds time. |

^this......on most days KC is my favorite prog band and I never really cared for Byrne's voice though he is certainly a talented musician. ------------- One does nothing yet nothing is left undone. Haquin |

Voting likewise. Also, RIL grooves a lot more. Also wittier lyrics. That BBC docu on Reagan which plays Once in a Lifetime is classic.

Love both albums but I am jumping on the Remain In Light bandwagon. It is satisfying both intellectually and emotionally, while Discipline hits mostly on the intellectual level. Tough decision, good poll. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Can't say enough about how I found Discipline a little cold. Remain in Light has a lot more colors in it as well as an additional guitarist by the name of Belew, for what that's worth. Oh, and one last thing - it was produced by Eno when he mattered. ------------- "It just has none of the qualities of your work that I find interesting. Abandon [?] it." - Eno |

Well, one album and band is considered "prog" while the other is not considered to be one. One is a darling on this site. The other I don't hear too much about.

| Remain in Light is probably TH's best album, though not perfect, KC's Discipline is not one of their best so RIL wins. I love the Jon Hassell bit! All IMHO. |
