SMALLCREEP'S DAY

One of the better solo albums from the Genesis stable. Rutherford always tended to be lumped with Tony Banks as one of the quieter ones in the band and maybe not as influential as the others. This album tells a different story. His guitar playing on this album is confident and as restained and tasteful as Gilmour or Latimer. The compositions demonstrate Rutherfords imprint on Genesis and the epic title track has nods towards Hackett. An album worthy of purchase which also showcases an excellent choice of musicians by Rutherford, and the singer Noel McCalla is also superb.
