Nice to see someone else has a love for "Waiting Room". It gets my top spot too. The other two are "The Knife" (in the live version) and "The Return of the Giant Hogweed".

Pretty good, but you can't listen to Riding the Scree without In The Rapids... and It... and The Light Dies Down On Broadway. Okay, it's basically come down to you can't listen to The Scree without the rest of the damn album.

That's my problem. All the stuff on The Lamb is so damn good, I can't just listen to one part of it.LOL

I'm not too fond of Visions of Angels, but the rest is great, especially The Knife. My only gripe with that song is that the version on Genesis Live is far superior.

1. Dancing With the Moonlit Knight
2. Watcher of the Skies
3. Squonk

These were hard choices to make ... simply too much good stuff to pick from! And I guess that in a week or two I'll shake my head over them.

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

I wanted to put Slippermen 3rd, but Supper's Ready has to be in there somewhere.

It's my favorite, easily. Wink

Underrated? Confused I suppose you meant overlooked, or something that refers of it's lack of mention...

Although I could pick three off of Trespass or TotT and be a very happy man.


I'd agree about Trespass,which I find sadly overrtaed and overshadowed by the albums that followed.ToT,however......I could pick three from W&W and be a very happy manWink.
