Trick is an easy favourite, I used to have a photocopy of it as a poster in my bedroom. I also have a soft spot for Justin Hayward's "Songwriter" cover, same artist Colin Elgie, same idea, every song illustrated, but completely different end result.
SEBTP is great too, I remember seeing a poster sized copy in a record shop in '73, even though I had no idea who Genesis were at the time. It made an impact.
Lamb is also great, after that, it all goes a bit downhill, sadly.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Watched this 25 years ago and did not appreciate the talent in the movie... OMG!! This movie is brilliant!... Spent 3 - 4 years to make and well worth it!.
The gags and humour is typical cartoonish character's and love it!.......
The only movie to show both animated and real people through the entire picture.
Mary Poppins only lasted 20 minutes in that entire film..
It is, indeed, a work of art. There is a docu that covers the making of it, such as the café scene where the penguins serve with real trays, which involved a set elevated about 7 feet off the real floor so people could move the trays on poles via slots in the floor, the penguins were drawn in afterwards.
Not hindered by the inclusion of Christopher "Doc Brown" Lloyd, either!

Latest news:
"Hi all:
It’s August 2019, 10 months since The Sound of Dreams and the Random Acts of Beauty Remix albums were supposed to have shipped. All I can do is offer my sincere apologies for the delay once again. Your patience has been beyond tremendous. We have received mostly encouraging notes from all of you and for that we thank you. Finally we do have an update that we would like to share with you.
A record deal has been signed with Golden Robot Global Entertainment, headed up by CEO Mark Alexander-Erber and music business legend Derek Shulman. Derek, whose first band featured a keyboard player named Reginald Dwight (aka Elton John), would go on to become lead singer of prog rock icons Gentle Giant before moving behind the scenes to the position of CEO of the Polygram, ATCO and Roadrunner labels. It was Derek who was responsible for signing such acts as Bon Jovi, Nickleback and Dream Theatre. So rest assured, we are in good hands.
As many of you know, we have recently been working alongside the legendary Producer/Engineer/Composer Alan Parsons. We shot 3 concert videos over in Europe with his band culminating in a historic performance in Tel Aviv with an 80 piece orchestra. A song from that particular show, One Note Symphony, was produced and directed as a music video by us and subsequently used by NASA to promote the 50 year anniversary celebration of the Apollo 11 moon landing. Needless to say, we have been incredibly busy.
[Blocked Image: https://www.bing.com/th?id=OVP.cVXFtGtzxkk-DFO3eq03QQHgEO&pid=Api] Alan Parsons: One Note Symphony - A Tribute to NASA 2019 has been a significant year for Alan Parsons, the legendary Producer/Musician/Engineer. After 13 nominations, Parsons finally won a Grammy for his classic album ... vimeo.com While traveling with Alan and his band throughout Europe, we discussed the possibility of Alan getting involved during the final stage of the Sound of Dreams project, and he indicated he would be interested. Following a visit to Parsonics studios in Santa Barbara last week (see photo), we decided to move forward, and I am now working with members of his team to quickly complete the mixes to their highest possible standards and deliver the masters to Golden Robot. That’s the plan, and we are going to do everything in our power to make sure all goes smoothly and quickly.
Once again, thank you for your remarkable patience!!
All our best;
David Minasian (artist, producer)
Trinity Houston (executive producer)"

Not as bad as people make out, I listen to it from time to time, focus on the music, it's quite inventive in places.

You're just being provocative, otherwise that's very likely the silliest post on this entire board to date.
(On reflection, second silliest).
But now, we are intrigued! Who? What?

According to this recent article about their recently released album, Tony Patterson and Doug Melbourne have left Re-Genesis.?
Which, as it turns out, is good news, as there's a new TP/DM album which I didn't know about! As anyone who has his last two (Equations of Meaning and Northlands with Brendan Eyre) will know, Tony's on a roll, quality wise, these last few years.
Tony has a thread on here, as he is a forum member. (At least, I think so, he was certainly on the old one)

Fly On A Windshield
Back in NYC
Supper's Ready
A Trick Of The Tail
Snowbound... sort of
Didn't Carpet Crawlers become The Carpet Crawl on some pressings of The Lamb or Seconds Out or something? Thus turning it from a direct title quote into one that fits this thread category?
Indeed. I think it has also been Carpet Crawl and The Carpet Crawlers on occasion. I can't see why it's title is so difficult to grasp, unless Peter didn't write the title at the top of his manuscript, and had for the others!

Some others bring to mind Gentle Giant, ELP, Moodies and Procol.
Oh yeah! Dear Diary. How could I have missed that.

Song Within a Song: Camel cover?

Dancing with the Moonlit Knight: Paperlate

I don't think so, just looked back at my last order, May 2017, got a paypal receipt and an order receipt, which failed hotmail's fraud detection check, but was genuine!

Sounds like a Steve Hackett tribute act. Do they also do The Angel Of Mons Struck Down?
-
A 12 from me, certainly a high point on this album.
And, as any Scotsman will tell you, ye cannae beat a good dram!

I enjoy everything Joe has put out. Over the years, I've seen him perform solo and with The Eagles. His 'The Smoker You Are, The Player You Get' album was played incessantly in the 70s. One of my faves from that time period.
Don't know if it's available in the US, but AC/DC frontman Brian Johnson has a series of interviews, and one of them is Joe. I watched it a while back, quite interesting even for a casual fan like me.

RIP Paul Darrow, a true great, the man who, in the role of Avon, stole the show Blake's 7 right from under Blake's nose (Indeed, Blake was missing for well over 1 series!)
Enjoy this compilation of his best put-downs as you raise a glass to Paul:
