No doubt it's a really good album. I probably even prefer it to Selling England By the Pound as it is more easily accesible musically, and probably more sonically interesting too. They kind of lose me on side 4 though.

Love The Lamb.

It's jostling with A Trick of the Tail for top spot in my Genesis fave album list. There are plentiful moments of beauty on the album. Fly on a Windshield is sublime, as is Chamber of 32 Doors, The Lamia, Lilywhite Lillith, Silent Sorrow..I could go on. Classic Genesis and classic prog rock.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Back in NYC is constantly in my head. Constantly. Arguably more so than any other Genesis song ever, including Supper's Ready.

"The call me the trail blazer - Rael - electric razor
I'm the pitcher in the chain gang, we don't believe in pain
'Cause we're only as strong, yes we're only as strong,
As the weakest link in the chain..."

Not really listen to the big stars of prog anymore, excepted this album that still sounds fresh and modern to me. I like all of it.

Almost everything, really, but Fly on a windshield sometimes gets a second spin

(although I prefer to enjoy the whole album without interruptions or skips)

Back on a Genesis kick, and I've been spinning this one in the car for the past week. This album truly is timeless. Even though Foxtrot and SEBT usually get the spotlight, this album really is something special. It's instantly caught in my head, and I find myself humming Gabriel's lyrical melodies all day.

What are some of your favorite parts of this timeless prog record? Smile
