Trespass is a good choice, but best follow-up has to go to Rush...if we're talking about biggest jump in quality from the debut to the sophomore effort, anyway.

Images and Words took my breath away on 1st listen, and I've been Dream Theater loyal ever since.

Although it would have been easy to vote for Trespass, I voted for Time and a Word because I feel that it was at least equal as a follow-up; that it showed serious "progression" of the band, and a hint of what was to come.  It also happens to be a sentimental favorite of mine...

Peace.

Time and A Word for me I think, I completely like that album, the production seem a bit lacking, and the guitar's are a bit to far back in the mix, but I think it's one of the best albums from 1970

Trespass is the second-best second album, but that's because the first album was utter crap (Yes's first album was good aswel). I can't compare Trespass with TAAW because they sound completely different

Tempted to go with Acquiring The Taste, but having yet to hear the debut album, I could not. So I went with Tresspass, since we all know how unrepresentative From Genesis To Revelation is.

I think the giant leap forward from Genesis 1st(Genesis to revelation) to Tresspass was huge. They made the biggest step. Personally, though I would have given it to VdGG follow up lp...a huge leap from Grey Aerosol.. to At Least We Can Do...easily surpasses Genesis

Absolutly Genesis 'Trespass'Compared to their 1st album,this was certainly a revelation,without a doubt.Best move Jonathan King ever made was pass on them.Thank you John Anthony.

Yep, I've got to add my voice to the chorus of "Trespass" appreciators. Night and day really from "FGTR" to "Trespass"

I could possibly disagree there,ELP debut was possibly the better album than Tarkus.Just my personal preference.

"Acquirng the Taste" is my fav GENTLE GIANT album, so I voted that way.
"Trespass" and "Images & Words" would both be followed by it, or tied for that matter.
3 Great albums!

Peace & take care
