Peter was prob the best prog vocalist in the 70s

He was the most versatile for sure but idk about the best.

I think Collins is a better vocalist myself. He does a killer job on A Trick of the Tail.

I think Phil was much better as a drummer than vocalist

Dude there's no comparison between his vocals and his drumming prowess.

I'd agree there.

As far as songwriting goes though, PG wins but it's just a matter of taste.

If you prefer a more commercial sound, Collins wins.

Peter has a bit of both and he does the mainstream stuff and the experimental stuff far better IMO.

Phil was an awesome drummer but Gabriel is one of my favourite prog vocalists so I dunno.

Yeah Melt is awesome, get on that. My favourite vocal performance of his is on The Lamb though.

gotta love the lamb bro. The intro vocals to 'in the cage' run through my head surprisingly often.

"I got sunshiiiiine in my stomach, like i just rocked my baaabyyy to sleep."

The second disc is still sinking in for me, haven't spun it as much as the first tho.

The second disc takes more listens to fully appreciate but now I actually prefer it to the first. The Lamia is the best song ever.
