I actually bought the lamb....because of several reasons:



1) The surrealistic nature of the story is more interesting than the wall.



2) The album has more songs clocking above 3 minutes than those in pink floyd which are usually 1 minute long.



3) The album was made by the whole band in comparsion to the wall which is "The Roger Waters project".



4) The album is criminally underrated, the wall is overrated.



5) Gabriel has better voice than Waters.



6) The lamb was buried with tales from topographic oceans, which is the cruelest thing ever in prog rock.



7) The wall was acclaimed because the concert was dramatized on stage and they find it amazing. while in Gabriel's case they reacted unfairly by saying it was stupid and unnecessary.



8) carpet crawlers > another brick in the wall.

yeah i could see that. never really listened to pink floyd but I do really enjoy the lamb. It was more gabriel inspired than the other genesis gabriel albums

Both of them were criticized for being TOO ambitious.

Add A Passion Play to that



Out of the overambitious 70's prog albums, that one is my favorite

I actually enjoy jethro tull, but then I remember that Ian can't sing anymore, and I forget I like the band.

Eh, he was arguably the best prog singer in the 70s along with Lake (and Gabriel, but that's a matter of taste I guess), so I don't care how he sounds now.

Also Gabriel wrote all of The Lamb aside from one song, which I want to say was The Supernatural Anaesthetist (?)

In my CD booklet it says all songs were written by the band as a whole, but idk

Because all the music was written by the band except Gabriel. And all the lyrics are written by him except supernatural anaesthetist which I read that he couldn't find a link to one part of the story so he asked Tony to write the lyrics for it.

Tales was criticised for being 80 minutes AND four songs, having blatantly uninspired moments, AND it came after Close to the Edge. It's no shock people didn't like it.



Lamb was criticised for its ambition, but then again, considering the reception to prior works that weren't successful outside Europe, it really didn't matter much to a band already knee deep in debt.
