Damn Phil's first wife leaving him, he suddenly got the urge the write songs after that. Genesis was so much better when it was Tony, Mike and Steve writing the songs. Even after Gabriel left, Trick of the Tail and Wind & Wuthering were great, then Steve Hackett left and that was that. But nothing ever topped "The Lamb"

I heard a different story. Phil was on tour (he was still married to his first wife), and met another woman. HE THEN FAXED HIS WIFE THE DIVORCE PAPERS. So, now he's on wife #2. They're together for serveral years. They even have a daughter together. Then, it happens again. I just heard an interview with him and he said, "I met (latest bimbo) and knew I couldn't live without her. I left my wife and daughter and never went back".

Duke and beyond just stink. I put The Lamb at #2, and Selling England as #1. :)
