In today's Sun, they've printed their Top 10 male rock stars who have left their bands to make top solo albums. At number 4 is Peter Gabriel with SEBTP and So and I quote -

"It's time to revisit early Seventies prog milestones like this. Gabriel's lyrics matched fantasy with Britishness to stunning effect, backed by ace instrumentation"

They went on to spoil it a bit by naming "I know what I like" as the key track on SEBTP, but at least it's a good write-up!

Well they could ease in the general public in with a bit of "Close to the edge" then take it up a notch with "Karn evil 9" and then it's really time to hit 'em hard!!!!!!! "More fool me"

The Sun doesn't even qualify as decent emergency toilet paper. Those who buy it can't read anyway.
