Probably a repeated thread, but deal with it.

I just got Nursery Crime today, and I've just started to really listen to it... and i don't yet own the Lamb... but for now my vote goes for Foxtrot.

I'm not sure why hardly anyone picks Nursery
Crime...it's the equal of Selling England or Foxtrot, I
think. But each to his own.

no doubt Nursery Cryme is brilliant, but it's brilliance doesn't shine through as easily as Sellign England or Foxtrot since it does have awful sound quality.  Great album, but I don;t think the compositions are as mature as on the next couple of albums either. IMO.

Having just finished playing "Selling..." 4 times in a row I think it would have to be my all time favourite Genesis album. As mentioned above, the quintessential prog album.

'Selling England...' is my favourite of these albums; has 2 of the greatest songs ever 'Firth Of Fifth' and 'The Cinema Show'.

Seling England by the pound. There aren't any adjectives to describe it.

Lamb is a great album but Nursery Cryme always leaves me with a smile on my face.
