I donīt think it as Genesis album at all. Hard to think any album Genesis album where is not Gabriel or Collins singing (I havenīt heard anybody has voice like they have). It could have been ok album under name Banks-Rutherford-Wilson. But really not great musically even that name.
Calling All Stations doesn't sound anything like a Genesis album to me either, but judged on its own merits, it's not a bad album, in my opinion. Smile

Hereīs mine that I have given in PA many years ago:
From Genesis to Revelation 3
Trespass 4
Nursery Cryme 5
Foxtrot 5
Live 5
Selling England by the Pound 5
the Lamb Lies Down On Broadway 5
a Trick Of the Tail 4
Wind & Wuthering 4
Seconds Out 4
...And Then There Were Three 4
Duke 4
Abacab 4
Three Sides Live 4
Genesis 3
Invisible Touch 2
We Canīt Dance 3
Calling All Stations 1

My opinions havenīt changed much, maybe I would give 4 today also to first album when starting like it more recent years.

The 'neo prog years' but why only 2 for ATTWT?
Because Phil Collins, the guy responsible for everything bad about Genesis and a whole lot of other things, didn't turn up.

that doesn't make sense. If he 'didn't turn up' wouldn't that be a good thing?
Since I'm only one of the few here who likes him as a singer/composer, not turning up, apart from sending his drum and voice parts from Canada, is the reason I only awarded ATTWT 2 stars.

Am I allowed to give Invisible Touch 0.5? Then that's my score as well.
