I think that "The Battle of Epping Forest" is seen unfavourably because it is on the same vinyl as three of the finest symphonic progressive rock tracks EVER written. I just wish that Genesis could have recorded it as a double album and extended the hell out of it.....

The Battle of Epping Forest-several cool melodies and a bit fun 8.5/10
The Cinema Show/Aisle of Plenty-pretty good apart from a couple of cringeworthy lyrics 8/10
Dancing With The Moonlit Knight-boring start but fairly good after 7.5/10
Firth of Fifth-good but depressing 7/10
I Know What I Like-not bad 7/10
After The Ordeal-not bad 7/10
More Fool Me-crap 5/10

Good album. Almost an 8/10
Better than Nursery for sure

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

This is honestly a genius idea, I think it could work very well. As for not liking Epping Forest, I personally don't blame the quality of the other tracks as its downfall. I think from a musical point of view, Gabriel sings waaaaaay too much and gives the instruments no time to breathe and really experiment with the song. The only part I like from Epping is the epic army drum section.
