| I thought this would be a good one and I don't think it's been done in a while. |

Wise After the Event to me is far superior to "The Geese". -------------

| There are very few albums I would vote for ahead of Voyage. |

Of these two: Voyage of the Acolyte. It would be way harder if this one was matched against Wise after the Event. -------------

| Voyage by far---I like Anthony's music but it is a bit mellow for me. |

Both excellent and quite different records...I'll go with Geese. ------------- |

| I certainly cannot choose. I love both these albums so much, I cannot pick one over the other. |

Acolyte , greatest prog solo album ever accept for maybe Six Wives and Fish Out Of Water. ( that might make an interesting poll though guessing its been done already!) I do have Geese but don't really like it unfortunately.

Well Voyage is the clear winner, but which way the wind blows is possibly my favorite song of the two. ------------- The sun has left the sky... ...Now you can close your eyes |

Phillips here. But I'm everything but a Genesis fan. ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

This was really tough. I love both albums. I went with Voyage, though. It's uncanny how Hackett can play a straightforward pentatonic minor scale and make it sound exotic. ------------- A curse upon the heads of those who seek their fortunes in a lie. The truth is always waiting when there's nothing left to try. - Colin Henson, Jade Warrior (Now) |

I love Hackett but am I the only one who thinks Acolyte is slightly overrated? |

I think parts of side one are a little bit repetitious and the second half of Shadow of Heirophant could be reduced by about 2 or 3 minutes but other than that it's great.
