The only thing I do agree with is that that incarnation's live stuff is where they truly shine and unleash their full power. By 'that incarnation' I mean Fripp/Cross/Wetton/Bruford, although Cross wasn't full-time member of the band anymore when Red was recorded.

Starless just feels so...pointless. The sax just kills me.

Nah, it's great.
But again, the live versions are better. I do prefer the violin to the sax. And the build-up and heavy part at the end are pretty epic. Like the ballad part as well.

Listening to Red again and I think it's really just Starless I have a problem with. It's their Shine On You Crazy Diamond. Not a crescendo worth listening to.

Yeah, it's pretty difficult to know whether he's talking about that song featuring some prominent sax playing or that album which features no saxophone at all.
