The Musical Box, The Return Of The Giant Hogweed, The Fountain Of Salmacis. Enough said.

I think the prog here is great and whimsical, but knowing what they go on to do just betrays this effort a little more. Still great! Especially the first and last tracks

Honing in on their progressive sound found on Trespass, Genesis take a firm step towards prog-legend status. The acquisitions of jazzy drummer Phil Collins and virtuoso guitarist Steve Hackett are huge, as both would prove instrumental to Genesis' prog days. Still, too many poppy ballads for my liking. When Genesis really go for it with the prog though, like on The Musical Box and Giant Hogweed, it is amazing.

With Hackett and Collins finally entrenched in the lineup, Genesis wastes no time introducing its leap of improvement opening with The Musical Box. Nursery Cryme is a statement from a band finding its groove and locking in masterfully for at least the next three albums.

NURSERY CRIME has some absolutely breathtaking, groundbreaking prog in three key songs - "The Musical Box", "The Return Of The Giant Hogweed" and "The Fountain of Salmacis". Each of these songs is perfectly crafted with all sorts of unique and interesting twists and turns. I wasn't all that well versed in Gabriel era Genesis until the early 90s when someone played me the Pop Shop (Belgium TV) 1971 performance. I was just completely mesmerized by "Salmacis" and couldn't understand how I could have overlooked them.rI've never been quite as fond of the remaining tracks, although I wouldn't say that any of them are bad songs. They're nice songs for what they are, but not quite as enthralling as the three epics that define this album's legacy. It's an excellent record, as was FOXTROT, but those three main epics are easily among my favorite Genesis songs ever.

The greatness of this record lies in Hackett's lead work, he shines very well on here. Fantastic album.
