So, NOT counting Supper's Ready, what do you consider the single-best Gabriel-era Genesis Track if you were FORCED to pick just one (humor me for the sake of this thread)? I did a lot of thinking and I keep reaching the conclusion that for myself, it just might be Firth of Fifth. Discuss! ------------- "I am so prog, I listen to concept albums on shuffle." -KMac2021 |

I guess Firth of Fifth. Supper's Ready was never a favorite of mine when it comes to classic Genesis.

The question, as posed by the OP, is one i cant really answer as there are too many to choose. But if the question is slightly changed to 'you can pick one PG era track to play for the day but thats all' it would have to be either 'Twilight Alehouse' or 'Can-utility and the Coastliners' ------------- |

I mean that's just incredibly difficult, lol. But let me think... I'm gonna give it to Get 'Em Out By Friday. It doesn't have a fancy keyboard solo or guitar solo, but the guitar work is excellent and the keys drive a lot of the song, the bassline might be Mike's best, Phil is fantastic as always especially with all the tempo changes and dynamics employed, and it Gabriel's best job of voicing a variety of characters to tell a story. ------------- Porg for short.

To be honest every song that's been mentioned so far has a great case for being their best, and all are big favorites of mine. Part of the great thing about PG era Genesis is its really easy for folks to agree on what the best stuff is, regardless of what they think of the not best stuff. Once you add in the PC era it gets a little harder, and once they go pop a bunch of people jump ship. ------------- Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog!

I like all of the above suggestions--especially "Cinema Show," "Can-Utility and the Coastliners," and The Musical Box" but I have this soul-connection with the subtle perfection of "The Lamia." Gabe at his very, very best; poetic lyrics, amazingly sensuous diction, great flute play, incredible drumming from Phil, and amazing guitar work from Steve. Simply the best, every note, every motif. I cannot say the same for any of the other songs mentioned above (by myself or my other esteemed PA members). ------------- Drew Fisher https://progisaliveandwell.blogspot.com/ |

After initially being turned off by the Banks-fest on Battle of Epping Forest, I now turn to it as a fave. For me, it's quintessential Gabriel - the humorous word play and campy delivery all while "parodying to point out" social ills is what Gabriel did best......an absolute classic. ------------- I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there..... |

I don't know, I find it rather charming. Phil really is a very pretty singer and the acoustics have never sounded more lovely. I look at it as an intermission of sorts, between the dazzling end of the first act (FoF) and the frantic start of the second (BoEF). Especially if you're on CD or digital, it's good to have a little breather in there between such mind bending epics. ------------- Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog!

In our series of polls, Firth of Fifth got the 2nd place. My pick is The Cinema Show though. Basically the same level of awesome + extremely satisfying guitar licks + great atmosphere + perfect finisher + that extended Banks solo towards the end is so potent that it creates worlds each time I listen to it. Def Banks best moment.

And are you, people of the prog, aware of the fact that there's a Ukrainian network of shops of electronics and home appliances named Foxtrot? It was named quite after the album we all know and love. Even the majority of the workers of that company have no idea about the origins of their name, as far as I know. But I once read a newspaper interview of the widow of one of its co-founders. She said, he liked Genesis and Peter Gabriel, hence the name of the company... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxtrot_%28company%29" rel="nofollow - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxtrot_(company) ------------- Favourite Band: Gentle Giant Favourite Writer: Robert Sheckley Favourite Horror Writer: Jean Ray Favourite Computer Game: Tiny Toon - Buster's Hidden Treasure (Sega Mega Drive/Genesis) |
