Duke's Travels/Duke's End, Burning Rope, Home by the Sea/Second Home, Mama etc. My guilty secret is ABACAB! Deeply un-Genesis, but that basic guitar riff over that simple synth line is very addictive. Excuse me while I go and wash my mouth out with soap and say a couple of Hail Marys as penance! 😩

I suppose I got a little carried away too. If I can only chose one I guess it would have to be Duke's Travels/Dukes End because it reminds me the most of the classic stuff. A few runner ups would be burning rope, both dominoes and both home by the seas and Abacab.

I doubt I can mention any that haven't already been mentioned so I'll just pick a few favorites.

Many too Many
Duchess
Abacab
The Lady Lies
Turn it on again
Dukes Travels/Dukes End
Domino(one and two)
Home by the sea/second
Silver Rainbow
Fading Lights
Congo
Undertow
Cul De Sac
Man on the corner
The Brazilian

There's actually a lot more than I thought there would be. I actually really like the entire ATTWT album too and most of Duke.

I'll second that.

haha well TBH there is no GENESIS song proper from ATTWT on that I like more.
It's got a haunting mood to it, and, well, those drums come in near the end, well...even Family Guy took note of it

I'd have to go with Duke's Travels, with Dodo/Lurker a close second.

Maybe "The Day the Light Went Out" (an unreleased track from the time of recording "And Then There Were Three").
