Started off as a pop-rock band in 1969 with Peter Gabriel on vocals. Trespass in 1970 hinted at the more progressive direction they would take followed by the energetic Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot (featuring the legendary Supper's Ready), Selling England By The Pound, Genesis Live and The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. After Gabriel left in 1975, drummer/backing singer Phil Collins took over as lead singer and continued the prog rock trend with Trick Of The Tail and Wind & Wuthering. Then they had a hit single with Follow You Follow Me in 1978. Fans thought they'd sold out but they had a lot more commercial success and to be fair, released some cracking singles up till 1992. Their albums still contained the long songs they were best known for in the 1970s. I have all their albums on my USB stick in my car.

Re: Genesis
I wondered if he was referring to that previous post suggesting ‘Jesus he knows me ‘ was a hidden gem ?Originally posted by tex View Post

Re: Genesis
It's clever how the chorus could be from a Christian rock song, but the verses tell a different story.Originally posted by George 1978 View Post
