Which of these debut albums do you enjoy the most?
Some songs I like (I would rather do two embeds per band, but lots of embeds are irritating and problematic for some). Edited by Logan - February 23 2018 at 11:22 |

Yes's debut out of these three. In fact it's one of my favorites from Yes.
Genesis' debut is ok, I love Gabriel's singing on it. I haven't listened to VDGG's debut in quite some time. When I'm in the mood for them, I just play H to He... I will give it a listen (to the debut album that is) soon.

Aerosol is fantastic.
Yes is great fun. Revelation bores me. |

Any of them aren´t bad album, but Yes sounded the most itself already in it´s first album. Also of course thinking it´s the best of those three.

To me VdGG sounded like itself on that album about as much as Yes did on its debut. Genesis, on the other hand, had a less mature sound. I think that both Yes and VdGG started strong out of the gates, whereas the Genesis album feels like a prequel band. One may claim that the "Yes" album sounds more like the classic Yes that many Prog fans laud than "The Aerosol Grey Machine" sounds like the classic era of VdGG that many Prog fans laud, but I hear a follow-through with those albums leading into subsequent ones, whereas Genesis had a more significant change. Like in "Octopus" you can hear the later "out-there" VdGG (has its excesses, and I don't altogether like it, but it certainly is one of the most progressive tracks off any of these three albums): And in other tracks you can hear VdGG's softer side. ------------------------------------------------ Some stats for fun: In terms of the ratings at ProgArchives: "Aerosol..." has a 3.26 with 569 ratings "From Genesis..." has 2.58 with 1047 ratings "Yes" has 3.24 and 1197 ratings At rateyourmusic: Aerosol has a 3.34 with 1,180 ratings From Genesis has a 2.90 with 2,239 ratings Yes has a 3.40 with 2,647 ratings Edited by Logan - February 23 2018 at 12:49 |

I love "The Aerosol Grey Machine". it has a lot of strong tracks (most notably "Octopus", "Necromancer", "Aquarians", "Running Back" and "Into a Game", but "Orthentian St." ain't bad either. and the title track is a nice silly little ditty). I can only recommend: "Buy an Aerosol Grey Machine for your own home - today"

The Yes debut is the strongest by far - although heard the Genesis debut last week after a gap of some time and I actually rather liked it for its pastoral quaintness and tail-end of the psychedelic era feel. I love 'The Conqueror' - but can't explain why!

You're walking along the road one day up comes a man dressed all in gray
He blows a little aerosol in your face and you find your minds' all over the place Just one breath and it's instant death it's the aerosol grey machine... vs Here come the supernatural anesthetist If he wants you to snuff it all he has to do is puff it... Hmmm...are both PG and PH singing about the same guy?

Very interesting! You could be right. Do you think young Gabriel might have been influenced there? ![]() |
