Much though I love Camel's music, their first album isn't a match for Nursery Cryme. But not many albums are.

I suspect Nursery Crime will be the winner here, with The Yes album Second and Camel's first album last. I'll give my vote to Camel, though In like all three quite the same.

The Yes Album is just best of these. If there had been Lamb, that would have been my choise. If there had been Fragile vs Lamb, that would have been really tough choise.

Usually I would vote for Yes over Genesis, but this time I vote for Genesis - Nursery Cryme.

This is actually a harder poll than I thought (I thought it was going to be band vs band vs band...not particular albums).
Heck...this is pretty much impossible for me
My fave Yes and Camel albums up against a Genesis one I never was that fond of..until I recently got a remastered version of it...so yeah.
No vote

Interesting choice - Nursery Cryme is my third favourite Genesis album whilst The Yes Album is possibly my favourite Yes release (although CTTE occasionally swaps places with it).... so I must vote Yes on this occasion. Camel's glory days were to come.

I have never had any complaints about Nursery Cryme, but have had a couple about the Yes Album. For that, and that alone, I voted for Genesis.

To my ears The Yes Album is a masterpiece, Nursery Cryme has the brilliant Musical Box but otherwise falls short of Trespass while the Camel debut isn't a patch on Mirage.
