2 stars This is bad album. Not that I'm zealous fan of their classic period and hate everything that came later, but with expectations to have Mama as their biggest hit (only variation comes in 3:20 and lasts towards the end) from this album, it fails. Mentioned latter half is good, but not so good. Drum machine is really not my cup of tea and by my opinion, it kills music. Time will come when we'll have vocal-machines and we all will be doomed. Then, we'll lay praises on "only" drum machines, but till that time, I'll stay in refuse position towards it. I can continue through this album to its bitter end, but I won't, as it's useless for both you and me.

2(+), few scattered good ideas, big deal of pop (and even worse, 80's pop), nothing especially ugly for my taste, so I'll hold worst rating. Phil Collins still reminds me Peter Gabriel to some extent (and I liked him), so I like Phil's voice too. He's not bad singer, but it still can't save this album.
