Abacab vs Worlds Apart

   That album got me into Saga in a big way...Although I remember hearing Humble Stance a few years before. Saw Saga in concert around 1983 on Heads or Tails tour, I really enjoy all their albums and they have a big catalog.

Genesis is Genesis, easily in my top 5 all time...but Saga gets the nod for me here.

	Released within a few weeks of each other in 1981 (although in the USA, Worlds Apart had to wait until the following year for its release). Both albums were gamechangers for their respective bands: Abacab introduced a heavily synthesized, urban sound for Genesis, while Worlds Apart was Saga's first big-budget, "name producer" album that gave them a worldwide following.
