King Crimson: Red (1974)
To me, Red is the best pre-1980 KC record. It was also the last KC record until 1981's Discipline. I had no idea, until I read the Wikipedia entry, that Red was the band's lowest charting record. That's odd for a record that I think is top shelf. It's worth having the record just for the title track, which is truly awesome and one of my favourite KC tunes.
I have the original Atlantic Canadian pressing from 1974.
