SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUND

Like I said, I bought this album last May along with Foxtrot. I grew to like this one much faster. In the end I prefer the other slightly, but it's unfair to compare an album to Foxtrot. I'll judge it on its own content.

Best three opening tracks of any Genesis album (although I'm partial to Lamb, Fly On the Windshield, and Broadway Melody). The fist three tracks on Selling England by the Pound though offer so much to be appreciated. A range of sounds and emotion pronounce the first three tracks.

After these I feel the album lags until the wonderful Cinema Show. Someone once described it as a jounrey from Venus to Mars. Although I'm not sure how one could compare a feeling to something so uncertain and abstract the description stuck in my head. And now I think of it when I listen to the song.

Another beautiful creation by the band Genesis. I recommend this album, too, to anyone who likes music.
