Strongly prefer Yes to King Crimson. I dig CttE, Fragile, the Self-Titled and a few tracks from the mid-late stuff. Hell, I even like most of Tales from Topographiwhats.
King Crimson always rubbed me the wrong way, and I can't really put my finger on why. Robert Fripp can play with a such a mellow and gorgeous tone, but I don't really like the compositions themselves I guess.
Or maybe it's because it didn't sound like Yes took themselves quite so seriously.
