I'm just imagining how great Songs About Fucking would look next to the 21st Century Schizoid Man.

I do quite like LC but....nahhhhhhhhh

[Facetious]

In The Calling of Crimson London

Anyway, now this is a tough choice.

I think I'd vote for Crimson.

Still have those deep dulcet tones in my ear telling me to vote for 'London Calling'.....

It is not a voice you ignore!

In The Court.. That maniac screaming on the cover got me pretty interested when I first saw it..

LC is also a great cover, very iconic.. But can't help think that the idea is stolen (/parodied) from Elvis'.
