Album Notes & Community Reviews

Mike Rutherford's solo debut 'Smallcreep's Day' adapts Peter Currell Brown's novel into a progressive rock suite on its first side. The album shows the Genesis guitarist and bassist exploring narrative long-form writing while also moving toward the more concise pop-rock approach that later shaped Mike + The Mechanics.
