Review (AMG)
Given all the overt literary references of Selling England by the Pound, along with their taste for epic suites such as "Supper's Ready," it was only a matter of time before Genesis attempted a full-fledged concept album, and 1974's The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway was a massive rock opera: the winding, wielding story of a Puerto Rican hustler name Rael making his way in New York City. Peter Gabriel made some tentative moves toward developing this story into a movie with William Friedkin but it never took off, perhaps it's just as well; even with the lengthy libretto included with the album, the story never makes sense. But just because the story is rather impenetrable doesn't mean that the album is as well, because it is a forceful, imaginative piece of work that showcases the original Genesis lineup at a peak. Even if the story is rather hard to piece together, the album is set up in a remarkable fashion, with the first LP being devoted to pop-oriented rock songs and the second being largely devoted to instrumentals. This means that The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway contains both Genesis' most immediate music to date and its most elliptical. Depending on a listener's taste, they may gravitate toward the first LP with its tight collection of ten rock songs, or the nightmarish landscapes of the second, where Rael descends into darkness and ultimately redemption (or so it would seem), but there's little question that the first album is far more direct than the second and it contains a number of masterpieces, from the opening fanfare of the title song, to the surging "In the Cage," from the frightening "Back in NYC" to the soothing conclusion "The Carpet Crawlers." In retrospect, this first LP plays a bit more like the first Gabriel solo album than the final Genesis album, but there's also little question that the band helps form and shape this music (with Brian Eno adding extra coloring on occasion), while Genesis shines as a group shines on the impressionistic second half. In every way, it's a considerable, lasting achievement and it's little wonder that Peter Gabriel had to leave the band after this record: they had gone as far as they could go together, and could never top this extraordinary album.

QUOTE (SH forums)

There appears to be only ONE original mastering of this title.

However, while ALL Disc 2s are identical, level and Track Start differences have been found that lead to SIX Disc 1 variations. Most pressings have an incorrectly placed track start for Broadway Melody Of 1974. In fact, the later DE edition not only duplicates this fault but has the resulting incorrect track times printed on the back cover of the CD! This problem has been ‘corrected’ on some pressings, but in TWO different ways. The issue then is whether one considers the loud musical interlude between the end of the lyrics to Fly On A Windshield (And I'm hovering like a fly, waiting for the windshield on the freeway.) and the start of the lyrics to Broadway Melody Of 1974 (Echoes of the Broadway Everglades) to be part of Fly or Broadway.
