A Trick Of The Tail
Dance On A Volcano
Entangled
Squonk
Mad Man Moon
Robbery, Assault And Battery
Ripples...
A Trick Of The Tail
Los Endos

And then there were four... this is probably within my Top 5 Genesis albums, it's full of great songs and great playing, and nearly every song is a gem!

Even though I kinda like it when I'm in the mood for it, I'm going to have to go with Robbery, Assault and Battery.   The song itself is just a mess, and the lyrics are just silly.

I actually *LOVE* the title track.  I see that track get alot of hate around the forums, but it's been in my top 3 from the album from the day I first heard it.

EDIT:  I suppose it's because the title track reminds me *SO MUCH* of Jellyfish (one of my all time favorite bands)...anyone who is a Jellyfish fan, I don't see how you can not *LOVE* Trick of the Tail

Wow, I guess I gotta do it, too.  Robbery, Assault & Battery even though I think it's a great song.  The "chase scene" in 13/8 is amazing.  I like the concept, and I like the execution.  It's just that every track on this album is awesome, and RA&B is slightly less awesome.  Things are gonna get really tough later.

I suppose I'll go with the title track, though Robbery would be fine too.
Alright people, I really want to see either Ripples or Entangled in the top 3 this time--these are the two most beautiful, haunting songs Genesis ever wrote.

You're one album early. Blood on the Rooftops fits that description to the tee.

Robbery for me as well.

This is my favorite Genesis album. I like all the songs but Ripples... is my least favorite. I can already see that will be an unpopular choice.
