SPOT THE PIGEON

''Spot the Pigeon'' is the most famous Genesis EP for a good reason.It contains three ''Wind & Wuthering'' leftovers, which the band made public in May 1977 through this edition, practically seeing back and forth.And that's because the short cuts ''Match of the Day'' and ''Pigeon'' are closer to Pop/Art Rock with commercial leanings, heavy on acoustic guitar and dreamy on keys with some sort of BEATLES-esque atmosphere, while the longer ''Inside and Out'' is more of the lyrical/theatrical Prog Rock of the band, maybe a bit too soft, but with some epic vocal sections, great keyboard work after the middle (Moog synth runs) and a nice acoustic prelude.Later in that same year it was announced that Steve Hackett would no more be a member of the band. 4.0, these are three great pop tunes that in my opinion deserved to be on wind and Wuthering.
