Hi Jeff,
 JJ> add my two cents worth....
 JJ> I am a huge fan of the 80's on KC, not really into the early stuff.  
 JJ> Discipline is one of my all time favorite albums and 
 JJ> only grows so over time.  it's one of those rare 
 JJ> recordings that the more you listen to it the more you get into it's 
 JJ> groove instead of tiring of it, at least for me.  I 
 JJ> think it offeres the BEST mix of Fripp's methodical 
 JJ> precision and Belew's perverted pop without going over 
 JJ> the top on either side.  Thrak and the post Thrak works 
 JJ> are great but a little complex for an easy listen and 
 JJ> as of yet I like them but don't really LOVE them, 
 JJ> especially ThrakAttak....  I mean, what's the point?  
        Well, I am neither a huge fan of the 80s or 90s KC.  However, I love 
the 70s KC with Fripp/Bruford/Wetton/Cross.  I don't know I suppose I find 
the Discipline album to close to being new wave for me to like.  I just has 
that 80s vibe to it that I don't like all that much.  I'd much rather pop in 
Starless and Bible Black and listen.
 JJ> Heavy metal ambient?  I dunno, it's all in your taste I 
 JJ> suppose.  I think that MAYBE, just maybe, the double 
 JJ> trio is a bit too complex for my ears, but then I 
 JJ> thought the same of Discipline when I initially got it.
        The Double Trio is very complex but isn't complexity some of the 
appeal of KC?  
ttyl,
