Lizard is my personal favorite. They both incredible amounts of personality, but Lizard just gets it because I never get sick of it. I mean, LTIA part 1 definitely gets wearisome for me.

Lark's Tongue, but if Jamie Muir, would not have been in that album, Lizard would be my choice.

They Both are  so different I dont think I can Pick One

Maybe if the poll was asking something more specific about the two LP's Like wich was a better addition Wetton ore Haskell.  Then I  think we could (maybe) decide.

(I still couldnt)

Lizard was great, very symphonic and even teatrical with Haskells deep voice and also great wind instruments! But Lark´s is not even one step forward in music...its a whole kilometer! This album is so adventurous and at the same time quite easy to enjoy...excellent, the best after ITCOTCK!!!

ISN'T IT!! I love that bolero, Is it the flute that plays that wonderful melody or is it some sort of horn? I might be a little vague here, But it gets slightly quieter and this wonderful melody enters, Comes in a few times

I have to say Larks, but Lizard is great as well. It's hard to compare them, they're so different.

These are the only two Crimson albums I own.

I like Lizard more, Cirkus is a good track.

Larks' Tongues in Aspic. This album defines nowadays King Crimson.

I love both, but Lark's have the best formaton of the band, IMO, and was a pinnacle to my Crimson listenings...
