Red and Starless are just unreal (especially Red) . . . they should be heard.

my personal fave is actually Discipline (which I'm sure a lot of KC fans here will disagree with)

objectively? Red, I guess - it has the softer as well as harder stuff

I find Fripp's work during the Discipline era to be outstanding, it was the time I spent with him and it has a place in my heart that has sustained my creativeness to this day.

Well if Frippy's reading this then don't blame me for ripping an Mp3 of The Nightwatch 'cause I can't buy it unless i buy the album and I don't wanna do that.

i like in the wake of poseidon for "pictures of a city". i like their pre-breakup stuff the best, in the 80's they sound like a totally different band, i think its the chapman stick

Since KC are reborn once again this thread should be revived as well.
Has anyone been at the recent shows?
I'm curious as to what people think of the new line-up.
I haven't really heard anything yet, just some snippets. I'm not too happy about Jakko being in the band, he is a good musician, but I always found his singing really bland.
Although Belew on the other hand, despite the fact that I love him as a singer and guitarist, wouldn't really fit into the 70s sound the band seems to want to recreate or at least expand upon.
