I always skip Epping Forest when I can, but I'm ok with After The Ordeal.

I like this notion of a breather track between the full-band intensity of their longer songs, though I would've chopped a bit off from the medieval-ish start of Ordeal.. It's kind of irritatingly delicate to me.

Rather in the way that people reduce the White Album to a more satisfying single album, I wish Genesis had recorded Selling Foxtrots By The Pound:-

Spoiler for tracklist:
1. Watcher of the skies
2. Can-Utility
3. Horizons
4. Supper's Ready
5. Moonlit knight
6. I know what I like
7. More fool me
8. Firth of Fifth
9. Cinema show
10. After the ordeal
