All I can say is AWESOME album.


This was Genesis putting it all together for one last masterpiece album.

It also contains some of the best drumming ever recorded.

And it's done by Phil Collins 😁

I admit that I still have to listen to this one more closely to get a really good idea of how good it is, but I have heard it a few times through and it definitely deserves to be ranked up there with such masterpieces as Selling England by the Pound and Foxtrot (though nothing by Genesis could ever top Selling England, in my opinion). One of only a few rock operas in which the story is perfectly interwoven with the music and neither inhibits the other.

Genesis was never the same after this album 🙁


With Peter Gabriel leaving, they lost their best vocalist and songwriter.

And Phil Collins never really drummed like this again.

Ididn't get this one on first listen. Had a story or something 😐

I always finding myself comparing this album to a mixture of Tommy & Moving Pictures 🤣

Pretty good album though 😄 Great musicians, and a great story.

I just find it a tad too long to just 'listen' to though 🫢 80-minutes is my typical cut-off line. I also find that a lot of the songs sound the same (albeit, the song that they all sound like is a good one).
