None of the three is a masterpiece, but I always thought that:
  1. Silent Sun
  2. Where the Sour turns to Sweet
  3. Am I very Wrong?
  4. In the Beginning
  5. A Place to Call my Own
Are all great songs for any band of the 60's, I'm sure that if Genesis would had never turned to Prog and with a good promotion, this album would had been extremely recognized.....But when Genesis released Trespass, the poor debut by a bunch of school kids paled.

The piano by Tony is brilliant and Peter's voice never sounded so clear, not Prog, but very good debut if you don't expect a Prog album..

My vote goes for the beautiful and extremely melodic "From Genesis to the Revelation".

This is one of the very few settings in which I would prefer Supertramp above Yes and Genesis.

Supertramp's debut is one of my all time favourite albums

^^^^
 
that was my choice as well...
 
Too bad it's so unknown and badly reputed , because it would've beaten that Yes debut flat out
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Definitely ST. The whole album is surreal, homely, yet crimsonian. Really underrated.
Nothing to say here. Nothing at all. Nothing is easy.

I think the reason for this is writen with three words

From Genesis To Revelation, straight away. Brilliant! Followed by Yes then Supertramp - they weren't so good as debuts go, quite mediocre Smile

Yes got my vote.
I do love Genesis' debut album. I haven't listened to Supertramp's debut album in a really long time, never did much for me. I'll give it another chance though.
