Quote: thedoctor said: It's amazing how Peter Gabriel made that band cool. Then Phil Collins made it...... well, I think we all know what Phil Collins did to Genesis.
What's interesting is that what Phil Collins wrought on Genesis may be more due to guitarist Steve Hackett's departure in 1977 than Gabriel's leaving in '75.
Sadly, once Genesis started having a few hit singles with Phil on vocals, they really changed their course. Their 80s albums only have a few nods here and there to progressive rock.
But the first couple of albums they did with Phil on vocals after Peter left were still pretty darned good. This boot I'm spinning is from the first tour they did after Peter left.
