I think the best part of almost every side-long epic in prog history is the finale (because it's finally over! Just kidding!  ). In this case, my choice is As Sure as Eggs is Eggs.

Uhg, errr, "Willow Farm" is certainly fun to sing along to... I'm not the biggest fan of this epic, though. In fact, I could happily skip "Apocalypse in 9/8" every single time...

mine is "Apocalypse in 9/8". strangely it is also the most
disappointing part at the same time. how can that be? simple: in the
live version of "Supper's Ready" on "Seconds Out" Tony Banks repeats
the studio version of his solo in the "Apocalypse" part note for note.
this is highly disappointing; that part calls for a real wild keyboard
attack live, with lots of improvisation. how very boring. sit, Banks,
and write "I shall not repat my solos live" 500 times

It's hard to say, the entire song is brilliant. It's a masterpiece. If I had to choose though, I'd say Apocalypse in 9/8. I simply can't get enough of that 4/4 keyboard solo over the 9/8 drumbeat. Simply spectacular.
Or maybe as sure as eggs is eggs. Peter Gabriel's powerful vocals really evoke alot of emotion .
P.S. Have you seen my signature?

That's not Tony's style...he is classically trained and is a perfectionist. He never showed off or tryed to steal the show, that's why he repeats the solo note for note-- it serves a purpose in the song. No reason to change this section's role in the album.

Do ya still think Foxtrot is overrated? Looks like ZJ might have turned over a new leaf.
BTW, my 'favorite' part is the beginning (up until How Dare I Be so Beautiful), especially the instrumental section between Lover's Leap and Guarnateed Eternal Sanctuary Man.
