2 stars Yeah, friends. This is a vivid example of how good ideas in wrong hands can bring to disappointing evaluations. If you listen to Where the sour turns to sweet cover by Echolyn you can better understand what I'm trying to explain.

There are a lot of good ideas in this album: Where the sour..., In The Beginning, The Conqueror, The Serpent, The Silent Sun. But unfortunately the producer (Johnatan King) wanted to put orchestra behind the group, even if the components were not so familiar with this idea. And the result was this kind of little disaster...

Anthony Phillips himself reported he was disgusted when he heard the master and that the starting material was richer and harder than the final result.

OK. It's true, I can't give to this debut album more than 2 stars, even if the second it's there because I know the real Genesis !
