4 stars I wouldn't say that "Foxtrot" is Genesis best album. I prefer the lyrical "Selling England By The Pound", the commercial "Duke", their great performance of "Seconds Out" or the masterpiece of "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway". The album starts with "Watcher Of The Skies". I really don't like the bass sound that appears when Peter Gabriel starts to sing. I would choose the version from the album "Genesis Live". The next cut is not a bad song. It could be better. In my opinion the best part of "Foxtrot" are the last three songs. "Can-Utility And The Coastliners" has a very strange and special atmosphere. "Horizons" is a beautiful guitar work executed by Steve Hackett but very short. "Supper's Ready". the pinnacle!
