The 1st one. Great bunch of creative people! But I have to say: Wetton and Bruford are two of my most favourite musicians in prog. Muir is an interesting musician. So it wasn't an easy choice. |

what a band. It's very hard to choose the perfect line up because all of the
musicians that ever played in Crimson are of such high calibre. I choose the Fripp, Belew, Bruford, Levin, but the truth is that any other line up would also be perfect. |

| Defineatly 'Red's' line-up. King Crimson fell apart after that period IMO! |

Although I like a lot the Wetton, Brudford and Cross lineup, you can hardly beat their first one, one of the best in prog ever. ------------- Vive le Québec libre!... |

Fripp, Belew, Levin, Bruford: IMHO the best sounding they ever were (especially live), and with an 'edge' to boot. ------------- Out in the garden the moon looks very bright. |

Agreed! Kickass lineup. And, they're nthe only lineup to have recorded more than one great album, thanks to the constant change of lineups in between their other albums... ------------- www.geocities.com/joelbitars |

It's surprising that the Red-line up has been mentioned twice as the best line-up, yet it only had one vote before mine. |

Hmm...looks like i must stick up for the classic 80s lineup (even though it has four voted already!!) Also, honorable mention for the Larks' tongue line up...great stuff. ------------- Dig me...But don't...Bury me I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect. |

i don't know really if the prescence of muir was determinant in the realisation of lark's tongues, but that album is one of my three favourite king crimson albums, and that is the reason why i choose the fifth line up ------------- a plague of lighthouse keepers |

Fripp, Wetton, Bruford, Cross, Muir Muir added an extra element to Crimsons music. To fully realize his contributions to Larks Tongues, you must listen to the album with two speakers. One will have Bruford, and the other with Muir. Then you will realize how important he was for the band at the time. Very crazy guy also! -------------

Fripp, Wetton, Bruford, Cross - just listen to The Night Watch ot The Great Deceiver box set. The double trio comes a close second. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...' Robert Wyatt, Gloria Gloom |

Original line-up with Fripp, Wetton, Bruford, Cross, Muir line-up a
close second. The original group was ground breaking in so many ways.
As Fripp said the original band had a "good fairy." They were certainly
a magic combination of musicians, and WAY ahead of their time
musically. As Bill Bruford once said after seeing a performance of the
original band, "I was so blown away, I walked all the way home telling
everyone I ran into about what I had just witnessed."
