5 stars If Genesis , were to continue producing the same sort of progressive rock music of the past they would have never made the 80s,so would that make everyone happy.The fact is Phil is Genesis ,without him they are nothing ,just another band .Like it or not this is the most popular and accessable recording Genesis have ever recorded,Abacab was a huge hit.Do album sales relate to great recordings,most don't this one does.This album is progressive rock music , in a pop music style format, though with some very well crafted songs that are very catchy,Dodo/Lurker is a very tough song ,and then you have ,Me And Sarah Jane great melody,and phils drumming in Abacab is sensational.This sounds very 80s , but does'nt sound at all dated,i have never known anyone to not like this recording.This is a great Genesis album even though its complety removed from there traditional style,in the end it maybe there best studio recording, is that to hard to handle or what.
