Re: Prog Premiership - Round 2-Match 5
i've never heard that strawbs track, and i love it. it's true. however, it goes against one of my all-time fave gabriel-era genesis tracks. killer, killer track. makes my fluffy hairless heart ready for... a cigarette or a shower or some damn thing. coughcough.

Why? Because it's from one of the greatest albums ever made. That's why.

OK this is a tough one. Both worthy pieces of music. I will go with the Strawbs - but it is close, cos if I dwell on it some more I might change my mind and say the Genesis track. But then I might change my mind again so I can only say that I am 100% certain that I am not sure.

As C would say, The Lamb Lies Down is in my DNA! Back in NYC is a key song on the album and was a departure from what Genesis had done before musically. Simply I cannot vote against!
The Strawbs track is magnificent with some vigorous guitar playing. Now, if it had been lined up against Supper's Ready ...........

Strawbs, the sixth greatest band that ever walked the planet.
A great track selection - an astonishingly robust track!

So difficult- that Strawbs-track is gorgeous! But to put that up against one of my fave Genesis-tracks is cruelty beyond belief.....

Or any Genesis really after the first three. Heresy around these parts I know.

Re: Prog Premiership - Round 2-Match 5
The toughest match of round 2: top notch Strawbs vs a gritty piece of Genesis. I prefer Back in NYC in the context of the album while Down By The Sea sounds majestic whenever I hear it so a vote for A it is.

Sorry, I've not had a chance to hear the Strawbs track yet. I know I like the Genesis one. I'll try and do it tonight but don't wait for me if you want to get the scores up.
turn on, tune in, nod off

i would have yew know that i almost voted against my own damn self, just cuz i loved that strawbs track so much. i'm not kidding. what is it from?
besides, fear not the current standings. i can say in all honesty that i do believe i have already hit my two wins, scant as they were. i have hit my sophomore album peak, and it's gonna get ugly for me from here on out (unless i have the phenomenal good luck to get matched against hollaback girl. and even then... )
