5 stars This album is absolutely brilliant! There is not a dull moment and in my humble opinion is the best album Genesis has produced.

Some people think that this album in not deserving of a five star rating because of songs like More Fool Me and I know What I like not being up to the same standard as the others on the album. This may be true but the fact is the songs with the almost unsurpassed technical, melodic and rhythmic brilliance like Firth Of Fifth, Cinema Show and Dancing with the Moonlit Night are in a league of their own. Every song on this album is a gem: some are diamonds and some rubies, but all gems!

This is one of the defining symphonic prog albums by which others will always be compared. A true masterpiece.
