haha. No poll in PA's is worth dying over. Especially no brainers. Especially anything with f**king Genesis as an option. Astral Traveller by many a light year. |

I chose to listen to the band Death. ------------- This message was brought to you by a proud supporter of the Deep State. |

true... I guess there are some polls worth listening to Death. I'd choose that, or castration or a hole in the head with a f'king Camel v. f'ing Genesis poll. My god for prog fans.. some people have really crappy tastes . For gods sake... it is prog rock... you know.. skill pretentiousnous.. showing ones skills... at least listen to something that has a pulse that is not so generic that half a hundred hack bands can reproduce. pfff |

Dodo/Lurker. Genesis does New Wave... and it's good! Wish they kept this style up for another album. -------------

love Dodo and Tony's keyboard work at the end---thought Abacab was a good record--at least 3/4 of it.

Voted for Astral Traveller, my fave song from TAAW. Nice live version with Benoit on the Lyon live set too. Dodo/Lurker is pretty good too. |

Astral Traveller, the best song from Time and a Word, would beat everything on Abacab... except Dodo/Lurker.
... and now I stay alive for another short while, maybe even longer

Astral Traveller by far; get something from the 70's and then it will be a little more challenging to pick... ------------- Progrockdude |

me too Two very different tracks recorded 10 years apart , Yes just before they became a full fledged prog band and Genesis as they were leaving prog behind (mostly). I love the organ on Time And A Word and combined with orchestra is superb at times. Dodo/Lurker is also a very addictive track. Can't really decide. If it was The Knife instead of Dodo/Lurker would that not make more sense in terms of comparison?

 But I disagree; Dodo/Lurker is my least favorite track from Abacab (though it's still okay) but I love Astral Traveller: that's a sensational track. All of Time And A Word, for that matter.

| Ya' gotta' b' kiddin'. I might have liked Dodo better if the live version off Three Sides Live wasn't superior. The studio version seemed out of place among the rest of Abacab's offerings. |

Micky...?? I'm going to listen to both and then vote but I had to get that out of the way first. After a listen I went with Genesis. Maybe it's because I have a weakness for ABACAB (spare the awful Whodunnit?) but it also had a little bit to do with Dodo having a more complete and 'rounded' sound than the rather raw "Astral Traveller". Admit it! If Genesis had filled that album with pseudo-epics similar in tone and pace to that track and Me 'N Sarah Jane it would probably be more well received in the prog community. After the more song-based Duke, Abacab feels like a natural evolution. Yes on the other hand, wouldn't strike their mark until the next album and the addition of Steve Howe |
