Best live material is on Archives Vol. 1.

Best Studio would be Selling England By the Pound.

Tired of ads?

I know everyone hates it but i still say that Duke is their best studio album.
Second's out is their best live (mostly) and overall album.

I hated Duke as I bought it, to the point that I played it second time a half year later. Even Misunderstanding, which I knew from three Sides Live. Those choirs. But I got to like Duchess, and then Man Of Our Times and Heathaze, and then others too. It became one of the albums I listen most often, though I dislike songs like "Alone Tonight".
I have a friend at Earlofmar discussion group who thinks of Duke as her favourite piece.

Duke is a good one. After Abacab, every album was essentially a Phil Collins solo album with Banks and Rutherford backing him up.

I think the last one, Calling All Stations, could have been much better if Banks/Rutherford did not try to duplicate their Phil Collins sound by hiring a commercial jingle singer to do lead vocals for their songs. They should have allowed a drummer and guitarist/vocalist to join the group outright and contribute to all of the songs. Maybe that would have given the group an edgier, alternative sound. But I guess when you are 50 years old like Banks/Rutherford you become too set in your ways.... Strange that they never formally broke up the group. Maybe it helps to reduce speculation of a reunion that way..

Collins is trying to activate the grooup with 70's members I heard. Strangely, Hackett agreed, but Gabriel wasn't interested, and Rutherford was not that keen at it as wel. Banks, Collins and Rutherford is enough Genesis for me, but oh well.l

Suffering from ads?

No contest: "Selling England By The Pound" is their magnus opus.

Lamb Lies Down is, in some ways, both the zenith and nadir of this group. All post-LLDOB works are essentially from an inferior band and not worthy of comparison.

Is that just spam from a fanclub or was there a news item about that?
