OK the poll show albums that aren't '70's albums.  If anyone gets something after And Then we all need to complain.
LOL

oops here's the link - http://www.playbuzz.com/tinabanks10/which-70s-genesis-album-are-you

I got Wind & Wuthering -
The quintessential romantic you are. Behind your quiet exterior lies a complex person that is difficult for people to understand. To others, you may come across as a little intense or emotionally driven. Once they get to know you,many facets of your personality unravel before them. It is not easy for people to get to this point because it takes a while for you to build trust in others. You have a cynical attitude towards authority and while you may be shy to do so, deep down you like to break the rules.  Whenever you are under stress, you have a tendency to self-destruct and want to start anew. In love, you love the person so deeply that you connect to their soul.

Mostly spot on. Cool

I got W&W as well, but just for kicks, I did it again with my second choices and got Selling England by the Pound:

Exposing the truth behind society is what you are all about. Clearly, you recognize that the economy is quite flawed and it leaves the common man behind. Just because higher society may seem normal, there are always little secrets that people hide. You are fully aware of this, and mock people for their obsession over material things and illustrate authority figures with a cynical lens. To you, humanity is confined and contained and should really be able to express themselves. Your form of rebellion is through art, and you express yourself to no avail. Romance is your escape hatch.

Methinks I am actually somewhere in the middle.   
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

Foxtrot

You are generally lost in a time long gone. Honor, valor, and dignity are the things that you value. Chivalry is not dead, it will come back someday. It brings sorrow to you when humanity destroys the environment. You wish to go back to another time, when people loved honor more than life itself. Anything that is a trend, current, leaves you feeling cynical. You believe that humanity will find a way to control their evolution. You sympathise with people that fell from leadership, and it is quite likely that royalty and rulers fascinate you. To you, good will always triumph over evil, in the most epic of ways.

That's actually pretty good, although I don't think the past was so great. That's one of the cooler quizzes ever though.

Wound up with Trespass. 

You love to escape reality through fantasy. It is likely that you feel isolated from the people that you love, particularly your friends. Bound to traditional values, you stand up for what you believe in. Violence is something you particularly abhor; you think that it threatens the overall well-being of society. It is very likely that you are going through a personal crisis; you wish to bring yourself to a brand new start in your life. Love is something that feels unreachable for you, and it is very likely that you are in love with someone that is with a friend of yours.

I suppose I went through a phase like that back in school. Now I just have a thing for pixies.

^Trespass touched me deeply I think I first heard it in 1978 or '79.  Middle school to high scool.

Me too, and by the way we are going 4-4 right now with Selling, which is also amongst my first Genesis albums to add to my collection.  Big smile

I guess i'm the first with Nursery Cryme. 

Challenging society is what you are all about. One of your deepest desires is to break free from social norms. You dislike having your passions restrained, especially when it comes to romance. It is likely that in your life people you loved, especially friends, have passed on or moved on in their lives, and you miss them terribly. To escape your sorrows, you relish in humor, and the more ridiculous it is the better. You have a generally cynical attitude towards life; you do not think that your elders are considering you. Sometimes in moments of despair you can go to extreme measures, wishing yourself away, and people have misunderstood you because of your actions. Fate is something you strongly believe in.

Pretty damn close.

I got `Trick', and I think it got me pretty right!

"They say that the pen is mightier than the sword. This is the case with you. Storytelling is a natural gift of yours, for you most likely love to write, or tell others stories. Your mind is a deep well of imagination and intense emotions. Whenever you are faced with a setback, you try to think rationally about things, despite the fact your emotions might gnaw away at you. You have a fiery personality, and people look up to you. Even though people look up to you, deep down you are very shy and don't like to have the limelight. You are fine with half-hiding."

Defintely some of that I can see!

I vacillated on a couple of those, so I took it twice. First time I got Lamb and second W&W. Lamb is my favorite by them, and I actually haven't heard the other yet.

I came out as Foxtrot, which is good as along with Lamb is my favourite Genesis.

Anyway, THIS IS NOT A POLL people of PA!!!



(Then I came out as Freddy Krueger lol)
