New Genesis book "A Tale Of The Trick" out later this year

Matt Skelland and Ian Paul Sharp will publish a new book (A Tale Of The Trick) about the time around the Genesis album A Trick Of The Tail.

The book will be produced by Matt Skelland and Ian Paul Sharp. Matt previously worked on Jon Kirkman's comprehensive book about The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. Ian is a published author whose work includes Pete Townshend's Lifehouse.

Matt and Ian are publishing an in-depth illustrated book about Trick later this year. They are keen to include the voices of Genesis fans. If you have any memories from this remarkable moment when Genesis proved they could carry on and thrive, you can contribute to this book!

Do you have any memories or experiences from the time of A Trick of the Tail? Perhaps you went to one or more nights of the tour (March – July 1976)? Maybe you met any or all of the band at the stage door, or you have an album of photographs? Do you have any promotional merch or a special edition of the album?
