5 stars The Lamb, the lamb, the lamb .. My favorite, so good !

It is, and I'm sure I'm not the only one to think that, the best album of Genesis ever done (my tast) with its grey style and its incridible weird story in New York. Yes, I know, of corse Peter Gabriel took more place on this album and the instrument are more in background. However, it is still my favorite because of its unique stile that we didn't see and never saw again on Genesis, which is my favourite progressive rock band for its unique weird style .. I like the signing, the instrument, the story .. Well, all on this is pretty good, except some songs that I almost never listen.

Some people say that it should on only one disc but I really think that the fact that it is about 95 minutes on two disc make this creation more ''grandiose'' and after listening to the whole album, which I have never done in one shot he he, I'm not telling my selt ''It was to short, I want more !'' like I do with Wind And Wuthering, Selling England By The Pound and some others that I really like to even that.

In conclusion, it is almost a perfect album with unfortunatly some imperfection but somehow some extraordinary songs like Fly on a Windshield, In the Cage, Hairless Heart (WOW, the keyboards !), Carpet Crawlers, The Chamber Of 32 Doors !, The Lamia and Silent sorrow in empty Boats (those are my tast, he). My favorite, so good ..
