“Immaculate conception”: 1974 marked a chaotic moment for Genesis but it delivered their masterpiece
A swan song.
Genesis
The 1976 Genesis song Phil Collins compared to Led Zeppelin: “A musical standout”
Reinventing the hard rock gods.
The 2002 Phil Collins song that came together completely by accident
“I would never have arranged that, that’s fantastic…”
The 1980 Genesis song that Tony Banks couldn’t stand: “It just seemed rather insubstantial”
A bit too closer to traditional pop.
The 1980 Genesis song too difficult for Peter Gabriel to sing: “It was typical Peter”
A timing too tricky to follow.
Whe John Bonham proved he was a better drummer than Phil Collins: “You cheeky b*stard”
A friendly rivalry between two all-time greats.
The 1981 song Phil Collins thought Genesis fans hated: “We’re going to reinvent ourselves”
Hurting their progressive credbility.
The 1986 Genesis song Tony Banks will never truly enjoy: “Straightforwrd rock”
Too simple-minded for his taste.
