Yeah, The Lamb takes some time to appreciate it to its fullest.
Personally, I can't even listen to The Wall anymore. Quadrophenia outdoes The Wall ten-fold in managing to capture teen angst PERFECTLY. And yes, in my personal opinion, it is the best Who money can buy.

: eh. im 16 and my preference of the lamb over
: the wall is basically.. well..
:
: id give:
:
: Quadrophenia 10(15)
: The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway 9(14)
: The Wall 8(11)
:
: I would get quadrophenia first because: it
: IS definitely better (even if by not an
: astounding amount, in my opinion), its
: easily the best studio Who album (and I
: prefer it to the live ones, but thats just
: me), its far more accessible. The Lamb is a
: mess, musically and lyrically. However,
: it's a beautiful mess, and has a TON of
: fantastic songs (but just as many pointless
: instrumentals). Definitely get Quad first
: though.
:
: and John has a point, you may want to wait
: on the Lamb. At least don't make it your
: first Gabriel album. I'd do Foxtrot first.
: or even Genesis Live because it shows all
: the good sides and none of the bad (not that
: Foxtrot has any bad at all - Genesis Live
: ALSO has "Hogweed" and
: "Musical Box")
