[Matthew Fleming · Rating 5 out of 5]

A fantastic period piece, written in the midst of of their post-Gabriel, pre-mainstream era. Featuring many photos by Gallo that I'd never seen before (and I consider myself a massive fan) and some brilliant, honest interviews, unfiltered by PR reps (unlike they would be now), this is a complete treat for anyone who likes the music of Genesis. Just try to avoid looking at that black bit on the toe of the foot on the front cover, the book's only bad point...
