Hi,
 
Nothing against Nursery Cryme, but it's just a rock song compared to Peter Hammill! Sorry Genesis ... not enough depth and sometimes too many words saying not much!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

This is just wrong!  They are both totally perfect.  They have so much depth and the perfect amount of words saying quite a lot.  Great albums and two bands really firing on all cylinders!

Godbluff by miles and miles.

And I love Nursery Cryme. But Godbluff is a top 5 album for me.

Nursery Cryme, an album that I at first listens thought was weak and overrated, plus the muddy production ruined the good moments.
 
Now I think it's incredible and as a whole it works greatly, the flow with that production is simply unique. Each song is really good, although obviously different.

Godbluff is a perfect album, and it deserves its high rating. Nursery cryme is not a perfect album genesis at that time hadent perfected thire songwritng skills, but its very good, but i yust feel its lacking in many things. personaly i feel it whuld have been more fair to compere Godbluff and SEBTP, and Nursery Cryme and the least we can do or H to he. Since they are more similar in production and sound and not yet perfect songwritng. Anyway my vote ofc goes to Godbluff one of my favorit prog albums.

I agree with the bolded, although I still prefer Nursery Cryme over Godbluff, the latter is undoubtedly the more mature record.

If it was only for Musical Box, Nursery Cryme would still be better, but if we add Fountain of Salmacis,  Giant Hogweed and Harold the Barrell, there's no competition.

for me its easy. GODBLUFF, my favorite VDGG album and one of my all time favorites, also one of my first prog albums along with GG's octopus and JT's bursting out.

Nursery cryme is great anyway.but godbluff tops any prog album for me, excluding the thickness of those bricks,

If it was only for The undercover man, Godbluff would still be better, but if we add Scorched Earth, Arrow and The sleepwalkers, there's no competition. Tongue

Nursery Crime, without question. The problem with VDGG is that they make great musical compositions, but unfortunately there is all that pretentious caterwauling that obliterates the music.
