Different strokes for different folks. We can't all like the same stuff. I have heard every PF album and every Genesis album. And I much prefer Invisible Touch and Calling All Stations to Lamb. To my ears they are good pops albums, plus in 86 when it came out Invisible Touch was the very first CD I bought. Lamb to me is just unlistenable. As for The Wall, no thanks. There are many other PF albums that are far better. Never understood the fascination with The Wall. Why would I listen to the Wall when I can listen to Relics, Piper, Saucerful, Meddle, Obscured by Clouds, DSOTM, Ummagumma, More, AHM.....and The Final Cut!

Both A and Broadsword and the Beast make top 5 for me. I love JT most in that '77 - '82 period; very tight stuff.

The Wall as the worst PF album? If I was to choose the worst one, it would be AMLOR (and I like a few songs on it still), or studio Ummagumma (although I still enjoy Rick's and David's songs a bit). The Lamb as the worst Genesis album is a bit ridiculous. Have you listened to Invisible Touch or Abacab? (still like a few songs on both, I'll admit that). As for JT, "A" is not that bad, Broadsword and Under Wraps are much worse, especially Under Wraps. Sorry for complaining, I just could not help it.

"A" is/was an absolute breath of fresh air IMHO. I was getting tired of the true folky stuff. Only one duddish track on A that is Working John Working Joe; all others are brilliant (again IMHO). I rate it 5 stars ..Anderson a genius for changing direction so drastically.......then he took two backward steps and made "Broadsword and The Beast", which to me is/was mostly a commercial, overproduced folk/rock-tinged yawnfest.....IMHO!

I don't understand the criticism it gets either. It is the only post-DSOTM album I ever listen to. |

I like it very much. It's not proggy (maybe prog-related). It's the album of a songwriter. But beautiful. In my opinion, it's better than Momentary Lapse of Reason or Division Bell, but even better than The Wall. It's difficult to compare it with the Floyd's discs from 1967 to 1977, because they are progressive albums of a rock band while The Final Cut is an author album made from orchestral melodic rock ballads. |

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

OK, from a more "objective" point of view I guess I should rate Remain in Light as the best Talking Heads album (it was clearly the most groundbreaking), but if we speak personal taste only, I think I like Fear of Music better.

You need to get more albums by both these bands! There are plenty of albums in both their discographies that are plenty worse than these (both materpieces IMO) |

I find it incredible the amount of nominations The Final Cut keeps getting for worst Floyd album
it was the best thing they ever did. so wonderfully self indulgent.

I couldn't decide which is better - Red or Larks. Both are pure genius almost same debut, Poseidon, Discipiline and THRAK.
FRIPP is god over gods.
