Nursery Cryme for me too. Have tried hard to get into VdGG, but they are not a favorite. So vote Genesis. A good album, but not their best.

Godbluff, mainly because I don't like The Giant Hogweed or The Fountain of Salmacis very much.

Uff! Magical songs on Nursery Crime with Genesis line up. But Godbluff is the return of a band without doubts!
Godbluff 10,5! Nursey 10.  |

Nursery Cryme, but Godbluff has no weak spots either in terms of composition .

Both 5 star albums. Godbluff is - together with Still Life - my favourite VdGG album. But I prefer Nursery Cryme a little.

Incidentally - I noticed that Genesis is currently included in 7 topics from 15 on first page, i.e. 46%. Isn´t it normal?

Nursery Cryme, because Godbluff shamelessly paraphrases my nickname. 
Seriously, because I like Gabriel´s Genesis really more than often over-combined Generators.

Me either--I wish someone could explain their appeal--to me they very often sound like what a comedy movie would put in a soundtrack if a scene called for prog to be played in the background---perhaps performed by Jack Black. |

GODBLUFF.
I prefer Genesis over VDGG, but Godbluff is their best album (and Pawn Hearts), while Nursery is not between my favorite Genesis albums (although I like it, I prefer SEBTP, Foxtrot, ATTOTT, etc,)

BTW, thanks poll-creator! You made me want to listen to VdGG, I haven't done that in a long while. (Still Life on)

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.

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,
