The Genesis legend says on his website: "People have wondered if I really was with wolves on the cover picture for the forthcoming album Wolflight. The answer is yes I was!

"I felt pretty nervous at first when, on entering a large, grassy area, we were confronted by several full-sized wolves. But the owner reassured me that because they saw him as the alpha male I would't be harmed. Apparently, it would not have been so safe if he'd not been there.
