They're all great in their own way. I have the Steven Wilson remix of Discipline on the way right now.

I think ITCotCK is prob my favorite because it was the very first one I discovered in my parents' record collection when I was like 6 or 7 years old. From the first distorted guitar chords of 21st Century Schizoid Man I was hooked for life.

So many incredible records to choose from. And the archival live releases of the last few years have generally been terrific as well!

Have you seen the new 27 disc box set that they've just announced? Looks like pretty much definitive Crim from the 70-72 era. http://shop.schizoidshop.com/king-crimson---sailors-tales-1970--1972---limited-edition-27-disc-boxed-set-p1699.aspx

Yeah! To be honest I still haven't made it through all of the 13 disc Larks set, and then there's the Starless and Discipline era ones on my list, so it will be awhile before I get to the new set, although I do like that era a lot. It's amazing how much diversity of music Fripp oversaw in such a short period of time.

I forgot the Road to Red set too! Oy vey!
