Genesis


Any long time Genesis (with or without Peter Gabriel) fans out there? What's your favorite albums?

  1. The Genesis tribute band “The Musical Box” does a great job of recreating original Genesis live performances and worth seeing if in your area. 

So close to my heart, my discovery of good music, prog rock on general.  As mentioned, they are a different animal after Hacket AND Gabriel left.  For me it's hard but Lamb is hard to beat.  SEBTP is prob fave 2 sided.  And yes, Collins in Brand X is awesome although its only one or two albums.  I could take Then There Were 3 but after that, big Nope.

Anyone else discover Hackett in Djabe?  A mix of E European elite musicians doing prog rock / jazz fusion.  Lots of great live recordings and many Genesis covers.  Check out Life is a Jouney - The Budapest Tapes and Live in Blue.  Amazing bassist.

Now that we have Genesis fans here,  any good "newer" groups that fill that niche for you?  I'll throw out Riverside.   Start with their first 3 "trilogy" CDs.  Go from there.  Recommendations welcome!

With Peter I'll say Lamb Lies Down, but for Phil I have to say the yellow blocks self titled album. That the one I listen to most of his. I like several others by both of these guys.
