I liked Genesis far better on TotT and WaW and I preferred Gabriel's solo material far better than his Genesis stuff back in the 70s.
 
I'll take Moribund the Burgermeister over Slippermen any day, and Squonk over Wardrobe.

DON'T YOU EVER DISS SELLING ENGLAND OR LAMB DISC 2 IN FRONT OF ME!

Sorry, but Slippermen, Riding the Scree and Epping Forest are works of genius!

Maybe it's because I like these types of songs that I don't like Entangled as much as you Confused

But yeah, Squonk over Wardrobe definitely LOL

While I think both TOTT and WAW are good albums imho they are missing that 'something' that Gabriel brought to the mix with all the others.
I have relistened to TOTT and Entangled and while it's a nice track I simply don't see it as groundbreaking in any way.
Maybe I'm just too old and too stuck on the Gabriel years.

As always it's a matter of taste since I find the newer Genesis stuff some what boring and uninspired with no real edge to it.

Its ending gloriously segues into Squonk.
