Foxtrot is more consistent and gets my vote

The Lamb has awesome tracks and some filler IMO
Prog On!

Foxtrot is an important and essential progressive release, perhaps the best album Genesis recorded. The Lamb contains one great album-worth of material (side 1 and 2, basically), and another full record that is a bloody, boring mythological mess. 
...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

Foxtrot for sure
Really don't mind if you sit this one out.

+1. 'Watcher of the Skies', 'Can-Utility', 'Horizons', 'Supper'.

BTW: Six six six ! Is the number of my post ! I guess I'll be celebrating ... with eight more hours of work.

Just listened to Foxtrot earlier today.  "Can-Utility" is becoming a new favorite of mine from that album of surprises!  However, there are so many great songs on LLDOB:  LLDOB (title); Fly on the Windshield; In the Cage; 32 Chambers; Carpet Crawlers; Lamia - I could go on a bit longer...

The Lamb is a masterpiece---Foxtrot , never did it for me from beginning to end---there are some gems in there but not a masterpiece---maybe it's the awful production.

Have to go with Foxtrot; it's solid from start to finish.  Lamb has some great tunes but is a little uneven in places.
