Yes, definitely, And Then There Were Three albums that predictably didn't quite make it into the final Top 7, including And Then There Were Three. Tongue

Predictable selection of albums, somewhat predictable ranking too... but it's nice to see/analyze the difference in points between albums.



Selling is the clear winner here, then Foxtrot, then we have almost a tie between the 3rd, 4th and 5th positions.

Trespass and Wind are far below.

I would have put And Then There Were Three but then there would have been eight.

Nice to see some love for Abacab....unusual for this site, but nice :)
Abacab and the self-titled one are both fantastic progressive pop albums. They’d be #8 and 9 on my list definitely, if not higher on some days.

Same! 6th for me, and it would have taken the 5th spot if W&W didn't grow on me so much over time.
Take me down, to the underground
Won't you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life

Looking for Genesis again, because their sound is still so fantastic for my taste!
What i like most: 
1. Trespass
2. The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway
3. Foxtrot
4. Selling England by the Pound
5. Nursery Cryme
7. Wind and Wuthering
7. A Trick of the Tail
8. Duke Big smile
(Sorry, list contains  8 albums as I believe Duke can be among them, because it was what I found  their last worthy LP)

I had a feeling that Foxtrot was going to trot away and win this poll, so it's good to see that Selling England by the Pound wasn't sold short in the end. Smile

I think Cryme should be 3rd and Tick moved down ...never thought it was a relly good lp....didn't have the same character as the early ones.
