sheer-heart-attack.
4 stars What an album!!! Brilliant songwriting and musicianship. Dance with the Moonlit Knight is a great song, but the next one, I Know What I Like, is right along side Supper's Ready, The Musical Box, and Salmacis as the greatest Genesis song of all time. Absolutely beautiful vocals. Then comes the heavenly piano intro to Firth of Fifth, followed by the short little tune More Fool Me, sung by Phil Collins. Next, however, is Battle of Epping Forest which although not the sole reason, the deciding factor in giving SEBTP four not five stars. The following After the Ordeal is just a short, and great, little instrumental. Then comes the Cinema Show which is another great one and the album is finished by Aisle of Plenty, which could just be another verse on Dance with the Moonlit Knight.

Highly recommended...9/10
