5 stars I believe this may be the best simphonic prog disc ever. It's lyrics, it's music, everything is just perfect. It's melodies, the creativity of Peter Gabriel in this disc is impressive. From "Dancing with the moonlight knight" to "the cinema show", "firth of fifth" or anyone else, each song has it's own rythm, it's own beauty, but i really want to outline the 7th song of this masterpiece ("the cinema show"), which may, in my opinion, the second best prog song ever (just after "Echoes", from pink floyd)`. Tony Banks and his using the heyboards is something beautiful to enjoy, almost as it is Steve Hacket's guitar.

An impressive disc, full of nice songs. Not just for prog fans, but for everyone. Really a masterpiece
