Both bands released three albums between 1976 and 1978.

We have 
Camel - Moonmadness - Rain Dances - Breathless
Genesis - A Trick of the Tail - Wind & Wuthering - And Then There Were Three. 

So which one is it for you? Big smile

Genesis by a vast margin. Different league altogether. IMO.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Easily Camel.

Moonmadness > Trick of The Tail

BUT the string of Genesis albums is stronger overall. Camel ended after Moonmadness to my ears.

Where’s the ‘both’ option?
A couple of years back I would’ve voted Genesis without a doubt in my mind. These days though it’s different. Sure I vastly prefer Trick over Moonmadness but the subsequent Camel albums have both matured for the better.
Given my mood or the time of day I could vote for any of these two bands.

...which is a cop-out I know...so eenie-meenie-miny-moe it is.
Camel!

Genesis.

Of course A Live Record versus Seconds Out would need a 'both' option.

Genesis by a ridiculously wide margin.

Genesis. 

I was never the biggest Camel fan though, save for a few stellar tunes here and there.

The word "tie" keeps coming to my mind, though...

Camel, just because of And Then There Were Three, otherwise it would be a tie.

Camel, 3/3 as opposed to Genesis 2/3 because of the extremely average 'And Then There Were Three'
