The Lamb Conquers Broadway

Review Score: (10/10)
This is a must-have for any Genesis lover. Genesis is fast-paced, heart-wrenching, and downright ethereal in this solid effort, thanks in part to contributions by Brian Eno. However, one can feel the tensions between the band members when listening to this album. It is the only album of its kind that Genesis recorded, for A Trick of the Tail harks back to the twelve-string music that established their sound in the early Seventies. This would also be Peter Gabriel's last album with Genesis. The song "Fly on a Windshield" can describe Gabriel's feelings concerning whether to leave the group or stick it out. However, it is a wonderful album to have, although I must confess that no other Genesis album is as good as Wind and Wuthering, my all-time favorite.
