When I was a teen Burning Rope used to suprise me the most from ATTWT, mainly that long instrumental section. Nowadays it strangely doesn't move me the same way even though I keep liking it.
 
Today Deep In The Motherlode is my favourite, it's such an amazing song really, the same love yesterday and today...

Burning Rope--a song that would have been made a classic if Hackett had been in the group.Smile

I like "the lady lies" better than either one but that's just me. I voted for "burning rope." This is probably the most under rated Genesis album. Some of the hardcore prog fans complain that it's mostly short songs but most of Lamb is mostly shorter songs too.

and didn't Banks also plan for it to be longer initially?

anyway I voted for Deep In The Motherlode. Is there a better example of how to make a perfect prog track that is only 4 minutes ish long?

good point but of course Lamb has an obscure concept that no one understands so is obviously superiorWink

Well I had to think about it as I like them both a lot but after careful scrutiny I've gone for Burning Rope.  If it had been 'Down and Out' then that would have been another matter...

Anyway that's a lode off my mind...Wink

Burning Rope (oh, how big was Phil's drum set-up around this time ?!!). Never have liked Motherlode, one of my least fave on the album.

Motherlode for me, they opened with that song when I saw ATTWT on tour!  It was very impressive & quite loud!
