Even amidst all of the Crims' other output, Lizard has always stood out a bit for me by how dark it is despite sounding so bright and brassy on the whole. The title track is amazing of course (Jon Anderson on vocals for the win!), but 'Cirkus' and 'Lady Of The Dancing Water' are two rather strong points in my opinion also.

Also Tore, do you really think that any of King Crimsons's post 70's albums be as splendidly performed/written as they are if they hadn't made Lizard first?
