The best classic Rock album of all time.
The piano arrangements are perfectly placed, saxo etc...
For me the best tracks are: Rocks Off - Loving Cup - Tumbling Dice - Let It Loose - Shine a Light - Sweet Virginia. But just all the tracks fits together perfectly, very high quality songs except "turn on the run", but we have 18 songs guys... a double album
But the best on this album is the quality over each track except maybe 1, and all the tracks have a main concept, sound, it's very clear, masterwork in that regard [First added to this chart: 09/18/2015]

One of the most influential albums ever, creating the modern progg rock, they were influenced by The Moody Blues "Days of Future Passed" as they used the mellotron and The Moodies were on the precursors of the genre and well known group of Brit prog rock, also King Crimson wanted to hire and work with the producer of The Moody Blues Tony Clarke, obviously they heard some albums of the Moodies, that's why all I can think is that King Crimson did a legendary masterpiece extremely innovative but inspired in some masterpieces of the 60s, just genius.
This 5 song album is a timeless gem, 1 song is perfect and the rest almost are. The feelings displayed on this album are inmense... Greg Lake's voice is perfection, best drumming I heard in my life on an album, each beat on each song is nailed, you just have to hear the first 2:15 mins of "Moonchild" to surrender to the drumming, lyrics are epic too... 3 words to encapsulate this album, mystical, beautiful and timeless.

"That's what people here don't have, variety. All Radiohead, all 90s 00s albums have the most quantity of rating". So what's different with you having so many albums from the 60s and 70s, most of which being classic rock? Again, I like classic rock, but having mostly one genre isn't really variety, is it?
Also, did you downvote all of the positive comments on my chart? If you did, thanks, had a good laugh.

That's what people here don't have, variety. All Radiohead, all 90s 00s albums have the most quantity of rating. My chart is only my favourite music albums, the best for me, not for you or other people, you have your own opinions.

There's a little idiom: "variety is the spice of life". That can apply to your chart. Not that I disagree with it, you have some very good choices here. But there's no variety. All but one of your entries are from the 60s and 70s, and while I'm not trying to be rude, it wouldn't hurt to try and listen to some different stuff.
Also two things: 1. Most of the "greatest" charts on this site are subjective, not objective. 2. Please stop trying to assert your opinion as being objective. One album that can hold a meaning to one person could be considered rubbish by another. I'll just hold off on a rating, for now.
