A new chapter for Genesis
Recorded at Trident Studios with producer David Hentschel, A Trick of the Tail marked a confident transition for the band. Collins' performance of "Squonk" helped establish him as the album's lead singer, while the group's adventurous songwriting retained the scope and detail of their earlier work.
From the energetic opening of "Dance On A Volcano" to the delicate atmosphere of "Entangled" and the instrumental finale "Los Endos," the album rewards a full listening session. It reached No. 3 in the U.K. and No. 31 in the U.S., becoming a critical and commercial success.
