Foxtrot or Meddle

Meddle has one of my all-time favorite songs in Echoes, but Foxtrot is a more consistent recording.  Meddle was Pink Floyd finding the balance between writing great songs and keeping their space-rock influences.  We all know it's follow-up was a massive success.

Tough choice. I'll go with Meddle though. Echoes is one of my favorite pieces of music ever.
But I do agree that Foxtrot is more consistent, at least is doesn't have a turkey like San Tropez.

Go for it. I think it would be interesting to see different peoples methods of listening to music, although I think there might already be a thread. The one thing I'll always remember from my first Foxtrot listen was the Mellotron in Watcher  Of The Skies. At the time, I had not heard something so epic and powerful, but every time I listen to it now, I don't really get that same feeling. I guess I'm too familiar with it now - it's probably my most played Genesis song ever.
