 Topic: Nursery Cryme vs Foxtrot
Posted: March 25 2018 at 15:59 |
both about the same for me... and like pretty much all Genesis albums in general in that period.. some out of the this world good stuff.. some completely forgettable stuff. They never did a consistent or truly great album.
Hard to choose... go with Foxtrot for the same reasons I tend to underrate it.. |

I have to go with Foxtrot. It's a work of art. Miles ahead of Nursery Cryme

A precise, eloquent answer. Truly this.

I seriously wouldn't have bothered making this poll if I wasn't under the incorrect assumption that this would be a close call, lol.

I'm not going to vote because I'm not sure. Typically I think I prefer NC but Foxtrot has SR on it.

To me a-side is as perfect as b. Really no bad songs in this album. |
Good for you I guess.
