Ralonzo Posted October 22 Posted October 22 So I found myself thinking as is wont, "what were the boys from peak Genesis up to maybe 45 years ago?" Peter Gabriel was trending toward shorter, radio-friendly songs. He had come up with an idea to do an album without cymbals and see if anyone would notice. During this process, he incorporated Tony Levin's stick and Phil Collins accidentally discovered the drum sound of the 80's - the gated reverb effect. Some of the songs even became minor hits, and laid the groundwork for an ascension to superstardom by 1986. Genesis were trending toward shorter, radio-friendly songs. Still, they released an album in "Duke" which was an artistic progression and underrated in their catalog. Some of the songs even became minor hits, and laid the groundwork for an ascension to superstardom by 1986. Steve Hackett was trending toward shorter, radio-friendly songs. He released perhaps his most accomplished solo album "Defector." He didn't have any songs become even minor hits, and laid the groundwork for continued obscurity by 1986 which he remedied by joining a band called GTR. Quote

That was the year before my freshman year when I first listened to Genesis - my roommate was a big fan. Liked that Gabriel solo album from the jump. 1 Quote

The Jokeman Posted October 23 Posted October 23 (edited) I don't watch the 2025 Grammys so I'm late to the party for this one and apparently most of us are since this was originally posted 5 years ago Edited October 23 by The Jokeman Quote

SinceThe70s Posted October 24 Posted October 24 Every few years this song pops up and I like it as much as the last time I heard it. Lyrics are biting. "3:15, I'm running. From a fourth grade lynch mob" "Good Lord, I've birthed a coward" Quote
