    For those wondering, those of us in the UK who bought the vinyl version got FOUR live sides, we didn't get the 3 track EP and the Duke B sides on side 4, instead we got "One for the Vine (London 1980), The Fountain of Salmacis (unknown), It/Watcher of the Skies (Glasgow 1976)

    Eleven of the first twelve responses have at least one track that appears only on their list. Interesting...

    Wow, having a bad day? It was an attempt at humour that obviously failed (but then, Python and Seinfeld failed with you also, so I guess I can see it). Such a dry, deadly serious place here sometimes.

    I really like Silver Rainbow too and if you asked me again I might add it. It's probably my second favorite track on "shapes" after HBTS(which at one point was my favorite Genesis song period).

    This one surprised me. Great tune, but I didn't expect it to land in so many top 10 lists!

    Yeah, I like Keep It Dark. The ones that surprised me were the more pop ones like 'Misunderstanding' and 'Turn It On Again', the latter of which has a ton of votes. Different strokes and all
