3 stars .this review was written for all the genesis fans that missed the Gabriel wit so much that they've started browsing through his solo career. this is the album you're looking for. the tracks you're looking for are:"Moribund The Burgermeister" lyrically this one seems like a brother of "the giant hog-weed" musically the songs make a balanced mixture of arena rock and humuristic prog-rock. the second gem is "Excuse Me" which is a happy little Broadway tune ,that mind remind you of another little Broadway tune called "counting out time". the over depressed blues "waiting for the big one" offers some interesting changes. and off-course how can we forget the single ,a country song in 7\8 who would have imagine? the gorgeous "sols-bury hill" and the haunting "Humdrum". the rest of the songs are nice and all,some off which are even quite good(check out "dolce vita" and here comes the flood")but the rest of the album seems like a nice Gabriel attempt to become an average rock star.
