THE LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY

Well, at the risk of inciting a riot among Genesis purists(I consider myself one of them), I consider this album one of the band's weaker moments. I am by no means an expert on Genesis trivia, but to me this sounds like Peter Gabriel's aural masturbatory fantasy put to vinyl. Perhaps if I had experienced the show live, I would feel differently, but it just isn't classical Genesis to me. Steve hackett's influence seems to be missing, and I am a big fan of his. He and Tony Banks have always been what made this band special(even tho' I liked some albums after Steve left-TTWT and Duke). This album sounds disjointed to me. Maybe I am wrong, but I know what I like!
