The potatoes? I thought it was a lamb.

I heard all these thumps on my roof and I went outside and witnessed a mattress migration.

English is not my first language, I lost you there, I don't know what's a "mattress migration". Confused

Basically a herd of mattresses all moving together in one direction. They climbed over my house and I heard them on the roof, making mattress sounds.

Who do you call in case of a roof top mattress migration? Big smile

That's a good question. I was thinking maybe a baseball player or a bus driver. It won't be long now before I permanently get exiled to the Just for Fun section. Oops. Embarrassed

Genesis > TD
Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Sparks , This Town Aint Big Enough for the Both Of Us and Amateur Hour are killer tracks. Queen II is just a mess that ends with a great track as far as I'm concerned. Lamb is obviously classic but going to ignore it as this is a non prog forum. Autobahn deserves a shout out. Not heard much else on that list.

From that list, I'm taking Queen with Bad Company a close second.

Phaedra.

I like a few others, but I'd vote for Herbie Hancock's Thrust before all of them.

Eno
Roxy Music

Besides a few cuts, "The Lamb" is a stinker, for me. Yet I'm sure it will receive the most votes as Genesis can do no wrong.

I can identify with this... I'd still pick several TD albums over Phaedra, but it was a milestone for sure, and it is an excellent album once I get into the mood.

Even The Lamb is not one of my most favourite Genesis albums, it's my sure pick here.
