Cant choose!
A few years back I would have gone with Floyd, but my liking for Crimson has grown considerably in that time, so it's pretty much a tie.. I've been enjoying Floyd longer, and in many ways they are more in tune with my overall prog tastes, but Crimson really do it for me right now, as I'm still getting know their material. I also think that in many of their manifestations Crimson were better musicians, more eclectic and more innovative, especially in more recent years. |

Barrett Floyd would be close, but from Meddle to Animals, Floyd are so far ahead of King Crimson, it's a simple choice. Ask any young person today who King Crimson were. They won't have a clue. But Floyd T shirts are all over the university campus, showing that quality lasts. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

But it's not like you see many kids around campus wearing Madonna shirts. That said, I think kids wear those because they think it's cool and iconic (as is wearing a Che Guevara shirt). Anyway, personally I wouldn't base quality on kids' fashion sense or what is popular. Shirts with the "Dark Side of the Moon" logo look cool, and Pink Floyd has long had cool cache. King Crimson is generally more challenging from a mainstream perspective, and would be harder for mainstream listeners to digest (I don't imagine that most of those kids are Proggers, and might be donning Nickleback or Slipknot tees when they aren't wearing their Floyd tees -- or Zeppelin, Hendrix, The Doors -- which I consider quality iconic bands/artist -- etc). When I was in college I didn't know King Crimson, and Pink Floyd was my favourite popular rock band, but King Crimson played an important role in this Prog journey that I'm still on. King Crimson for me, though I really do like Floyd too. I think Larks' Tongues in Aspic is a particularly terrific album One might ask, is it particularly because of quality that bands like Pink Floyd, Foreigner, Boston, Queen, Styx, Bon Jovi, and Kim Mitchell regularly play on my local classic rock radio station rather than bands such as King Crimson, Magma, Comus, The Soft Machine, and Henry Cow, or it because it's more accessible that it has become part of the standard classic rock radio format? Popularity breeds popularity. I do agree that Pink Floyd has withstood the test of time, and is "quality" music, however. ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |

Right, it's because PF et. al. were more popular then, so for a "classic" rock station which hopes for a recall of "glory days" they play that music. Pink Floyd was sort of the ultimate crossover - in high school I could have counted on one hand the number of people I encountered who had a 70s Yes record (and King Crimson was worse, I think I met one person who had even the faintest clue who they were), yet everyone loved Floyd, all the normal "hard rock" guys and friends who loved Zep, Bad Company, and sort of your standard 70s classic rock fare were big Floyd fans, went to the concerts, etc. I mean, Magma and Henry Cow? Forget it, I didn't have any chance of discovering bands like that at the time. |

And a terrible one at that...
Anyway, even though I disagree with that popularity-based point of view, I definitely like Pink Floyd 349837 times more than King Crimson. Only ITCOTCK is a real masterpiece in my ears, and maybe even Red. But PF gave me 4 absolute masterpieces (from DSOTM to TW) and a few near-masterpieces (Meddle) and great songs in between.
On the other hand, King Crimson gave me "Discipline"  -------------

If I had to choose a favorite band, I would have to choose Pink Floyd.They were my first step into prog a few years ago and I still love them. I really wish people would stop wearing t shirts with PF, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC etc logos on them when they have no idea who the band is. There should be a test before you buy it to see if they know the band's material.

A great case can be made for either; and several already have done so above. But since a vote is a vote, KC gets it. After all, they're still adding to the pool--and providing quality stuff. Floyd's done, and, you gotta admit, AMLOR and Division Bell had obvious filler. Does anyone really think that'd have been reversed? I didn't think so. |

I agree with everything Logan said. Young person here. I certainly know who King Crimson is and could pick a few people (non-proggers) my age who know who they are also. Granted I couldn't find anyone who knew who King Crimson is that doesn't know Pink Floyd but that's besides the point (not really but I'm just trying to make my argument more valid  ).I noticed more people wearing DSOTM shirts in high school than college and I can't tell you how many times I'd try to strike up a conversation about prog with someone in those shirts only to find out that person was completely ignorant of anything outside of DSOTM or The Wall. Those albums produced radio-friendly hits that still get played regularly on the local classic rock station and therefore are able to stand your test of time. So yes Logan, you are correct, they are far from proggers. Anyway, I voted for King Crimson because I'm a huge fan of all of their stuff up to Three of a Perfect Pair with the exception of Beat which is ok. I really like a few Pink Floyd albums (Animals, Meddle, Wish You Were Here in that order) but neither the quality nor the quantity match KC. Excuse the disjointedness of my post but I'm listening to The Talking Drum now so my mind is all over the place. |

ELP definitely had their place in prog history but personally while a great band they never really broke the Nice/ELP mold. Their music was pretty much the same with very few attempts to expand. KC and PF both started out one way and, in Crimson's case, were able to survive many personnel and stylistic changes and still continue to amaze. ------------- " Life is like a beanstalk, isn't it ?

| Pink Floyd has made 14 albums from '67-'94, and they've only had 5 people in their band throughout their entire career. King Crimson has 15 albums since '69 but has gone thru several major transformations as well as over a dozen different bandmates. My favorite PF album is Meddle, and my favorite Crimson album is Larks' Toungues. And if I had to choose between those two albums i'd go with Meddle. |

Where's the "this endless music competition stuff is silly and juvenile -- I like both of those fine bands equally well, and never thought I'd have to choose one at the expense of the other" option?
No vote from me -- I'd pick either, both, or neither, depending on my mood at any given time. My moods vary. My tastes in music range far. I don't view my music collection as some sort of sonic "war zone."
Sorry, but I'll say it again: many pollsters here must be record company execs with limited budgets (and even more limited vision), accountant-types, or just plain lacking in original topics for polls and threads.  ------------- "And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?

I know, and I always feel a twinge of guilt afterward, but I guess I just don't get the popularity of these ubiquitous "VS" polls.
In all honesty, I think it's symptomatic of a rather child-like way to look at music. Perhaps it even points to a darker aspect of human nature: the lamentable tendency to reduce all human interaction and endeavor, even art, to competition -- to divide the world into only winners and losers.
As I indicated, this is the record company executive or radio programmer way to look at music -- as mere plastic product, with merit or "worth" exactingly measured according to popularity (that is, sales).
I guess I'd hoped serious "progressive" music fans might be deeper and broader-minded than that, and not fall for the "bean counter" mindset which saw their preferred music marginalized & denigrated by THE INDUSTRY in the first place, and which sees the airwaves swamped in countless sound-alike clone bands, and cutie-pie, flavour-of-the-month, manufactured instant "stars"....

Reminds me of Fripp's announcement before a set in September, 1973: "We're not to be enjoyed. We're an intellectual band." Whereas Floyd wouldn't have addressed the crowd at all.

You say we can't get along... Well, I say YES WE CAN! Plus, I don't care if Fripp thinks KC is not to be enjoyed because it's an intellectual band: he's just wrong! I' say KC is the proof that an intelectual band CAN be enjoyable... and Yes, Renaissance, Genesis, Gentle Giant, Van der Graaf (well, not so much)... Oh, and Zappa!
