Great stuff . I have had those for years, just never gave them a proper listen They both have a haunting sound about them, especially W&W. I think the music on both is excellent start to finish. I believe Rush was very much into Genesis during the Hemisphere's writing, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made these albums sound fantastic . The d.v.d extras are great, i should have gotten this a long time ago. Does anyone have the live box set ? It'll be under the Christmas tree in a few days, actually, it may even be in the house at this stage!! I got the Movie Box last week though, fantastic stuff, The Way We Walk and Wembley I had, but The Mama Tour & 3 Sides Live are excellent and there's a horseload of extras too. The 5 boxsets are bloody expensive, but worth it. No doubt Saw! I "saw" that Movie Box on Tuesday at Best Buy and I had to buy it!! The five boxes are worth it all! I have the Japanese pressings too. The difference is they all come housed in Genesis Promo Boxes in cardboard mini lp sleeves. They are worth every Yen. Signed, "Midnight In Tokyo" (that's a Y&T song that kicks ASS!)

Mystic Slipperman Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Not playing in the Genesis trib any longer but I do still love the music. Who knows, when we get to Austin maybe I'll hold auditions for a new trib. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Show Don't Tell Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Hey, everyone! I'm starting to get into Genesis. I know some of their hits like "Misunderstanding" and "That's All", and have also been listening to their A Trick Of The Tail album, which I really enjoy. Any suggestions for next steps? Which albums would be best for me to explore next? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which albums would be best for me to explore next? Thanks! If you like the poppier stuff, go with Genesis, Abacab, Duke, or Invisible Touch next. If you like more progressive stuff, go with Wind and Wuthering (which is probably your best bet, since you like Trick and it's very similar to Trick), Selling England By The Pound, Foxtrot, Nursery Cryme, or Trespass. Why did I leave The Lamb off of there? Because it's their hardest album to get into. When you do, you'll love it, but make it the 5th or 6th Genesis album you listen to, at least. All of the Genesis albums are good, though. Get From Genesis To Revelation last; it's their debut, and probably their weakest. Their last album, Calling All Stations, is actually better than some people say it is. I love Ray Wilson's singing voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSHHEAD666 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Could someone please tell me why Phil Collins is NOT in the Modern Drummer Hall Of Fame? Makes no sense to me. I am sure many of you have heard of Phil's side band called Brand X. It's great stuff. There is a song called "Nuclear Burn" where Phil just rips it up on the drum kit. The guy is an amazing drummer.

I really don't understand it because it is not like Rolling Stone where people that have no clue about music vote. These are Drummers voting, all i can say is write a letter to Modern Drummer . They might even print it and then you will be famous Edited December 21, 2009 by metaldad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to always feel that Say It's Alright, Joe and Many Too Many were weak tracks, but now I'm really getting into them. I love that album as well. It's an odd one and kind of transitional. It shows that they were getting ready for a new direction towards more radio-friendly and shorter songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
