The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway

Wow! I just listened to it for the first time, and I must say that it is probably one of the greatest, if not THE greatest, prog rock albums ever! Genesis at their finest! Your thoughs?

A great album, but not even Genesis' best, IMO.

Is it better than We Can't Dance?

Blasphemer.

One of their finest...But I was always partial to "Foxtrot"

You mean you didn't love that album?

Wow! Genesis fans. I didn't think I'd run into to many of them on this board.

Ageed! A brilliant piece of art. I also have the box set in which they play the entire album live. It too is awesome.

I love most Genesis from Trespass right on through Abacab. Each album is different than the next, which is truly "progressive". Hard to really pick one favorite over another, but of the Phil Collins-led albums "Duke" would probably be a favorite, with "Wind & Wuthering" coming in a close second. Of the Peter Gabriel albums "Foxtrot" would be high on the list.

Genesis is the next on my list of Prog to get into. I've been deeply involved with Yes for a few months now, as Ult is aware of LOL!

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!!!!

I think anything the great PETER GABRIEL has ever drawn breath near is gold!!!

Make NEKTAR one of the band's you check out as well. I'd suggest checking out "Recycled" or "Remember the Future" first. Recycled is my personal favorite. Remember the Future is a fan favorite for sure. It only has one songs on it, broken into two part.
1. "Remember the Future Part One" (16:41)
2. "Remember the Future Part Two" (19:00)
