Arguably the four best albums from the Peter Gabriel era of Genesis. Your fav.

I need to spin Selling England more often....I know it's a big favorite for ALOT of us Genesis fans here...I always reach for Foxtrot though.

4. Selling England By The Pound

Nursery Cryme, as you've all already heard is my favourite album of all time, with Foxtrot being a close second. The Lamb, I will need to listen for a long time yet to discover all the intricacies, I'm still in relative infancy to it but I know enough to like it enough :grinthumb SEBTP I've never warmed up to as much as their other 70's works for whatever reason. Although Dancing With The Moonlit Knight is among my top Genesis songs I haven't enjoyed the rest of it as much :dunno:

:bow: Selling England............for me on this poll. So many classics on this album. I just love Gabriels opening vocal on the title track :grinthumb. The Lamb......is a great album,but IMHO a little too complex,and because of this it overshadows the quality that lies deep within Raels world.

:cheers2 Bryter.

^^Although I posted Selling England by the Pound as my choice I have to add that a few months ago it would have been Foxtrot. It doesn't happen often with bands I am very familiar with normally but every once in a while the "Pecking Order" does change for me.

Besides Supper's Ready, Horizons and Watcher Of The Skies were deciding factors for me.
