On the three songs - Looking Around - Every Little Thing - Survival, I'd say YES. ------------- Thank you for supporting independently produced music |

I would have never thought that I would be giving my vote to Supertramp against Genesis and Yes but their debut album is clearly the winner for me. Pretty solid release! -------------

There's no story here. Even if Revelation is one of the few Genesis albums that I like, YES is on another level. I have never liked Supertramp too much but I don't know their whole discography. ------------- Curiosity killed a cat, Schroedinger only half. |

I'm actually quite a fan of the first Genesis album. It's obviously not quite up to par with the rest of their material that emerged in the 1970s but it's still an interesting album to hear and listen to what they sounded like when they started out. -------------

As their debut albums: Yes > Supertramp >> FGTR As the bands in general: Yes >= Genesis >>>> Supertramp ------------- I look up, I'm almost blinded by the warmth of what's inside me and the taste that's in my soul, but I'm dead inside as I stand alone... |

Genesis' debut is one of the most underrated albums ever, very nice symph-pop. I'm not sure if I rank it above Yes' debut but here it deserves the vote. ------------- "It's music, and I like it" - Miles Davis on Sketches of Spain |

Supertramp. And my favourite song is Try Again, because it sounds a bit crimsonesque. The whole album sounds a bit crimsonesque (and totally different from their later albums). What an awesome debut. ------------- Meet me in Second Life under the name Exiles Lavender. I am a DJ there at two prog rock clubs. |

Interesting poll. Supertramp's first is surprisingly good, and I actually think Yes's SECOND album Time and a Word is very very underrated (and the first one quite good too), but I had to vote for Genesis. Although their execution and arrangements got a lot better on Trespass, the great songwriting was there from the beginning. Yes and Supertramp, on the other hand, were working with weaker material from the get-go. ------------- www.emkog.com |

None of the three is a masterpiece, but I always thought that:
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". Iván -------------

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

^^^^
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 ------------- |

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