It looks like SUPPERS READY is getting top honors in this form. It's not my favourite, but it's certainly one of thier best. Maybe GENESIS's most layered complex piece.

For me, Supper's Ready and Echoes are the best 15+minutes songs ever (not counting songs like Thick As Brick or Tubular Bells that are a whole album).

You've got good taste. Tubular bells and Echoes are some serious epics, but give STILL REMAINS by FATES WARNING a spin. Great 16+min track. You won't be disappointed cause if you like those other 2 you'll appreciate that one

Ok, I will Thumbs Up
