    [quote name='the boy' timestamp='1375964668' post='2167962'] I don't dislike it. What I found is that I actually knew more genesis material than I thought I did. I found myself saying "oh.....was that them?" And such like. I've also been cramming it into my head in an attempt to fully appreciate their body of work at all its stages. Now that I'm more familiar with it and I can give certain songs a face etc now all I need is a hook. What I mean by this is....... I need to identify a song with a moment or a good movie or something that moved me at some time. Once that happens ill be in and once I'm in that will be it. I will eat sleep and drink that sh*t. It happened with dire straits, I loved them in the 80s,but who didn't. I had some albums and pretty soon I was sick of them and I stopped listening to them. I'm into knopfler but that's different. Anyway roll forward 15 or so years, I was at a singalong in a pub in Ireland and this girl sings Romeo and Juliet with her brother accompanying her on the guitar. It was sublime, I was hooked. The very next day as if by magic I'm driving in my car and this band are on the radio singing Romeo and Juliet and I think wow that's amazing, it was the killers and they had done an excellent version. That was it I was consuming dire straits like a fat kid in a cake shop. It lasted a year or so. I still have big love for dire straits today. Even though I know it's not cool and a lot of the music is crap. I still love it. It's weird. It's happened to me with lots of bands I never expected me to like. Aerosmith, Metallica, Tom waits, van Morrison, the beach boys, Burt fookin Bacharach the list is endless. Anyway, genesis are now smouldering in my subconscious waiting to pounce, thank you Marcus Bell. [/quote] glad i tuned you into them mate, there are some great pieces out there waiting to be discovered

    [quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1375821316' post='2166231'] I remember the impact Mark had when he burst onto the scene when I was a young bassist...he was shockingly good and launched a few thousand thumbs lol! Great bassist. [/quote] Enough said

    [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1375807139' post='2165977'] Love the band. Not a bad note throughout their career. [/quote] amen.

    [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1375805193' post='2165943'] Seconds Out is a great primer. I recently got the remastered sets - the remixes are revelatory. They have dynamics! The 1970-75 stuff is fantastic, and the Live Box is amazing. On Seconds Out there's a whole new percussion track on Cinema Show which is totally buried on previous mixes... [/quote] ill be sure to check this out, I often surprise people when I first tell them my first love musically is level42 and various funk outfits, then I come out with genesis and you should see their faces

    [quote name='mart' timestamp='1375805016' post='2165937'] +100. Genesis was my first love, musically, and Seconds Out quickly became my go-to album. Thirty years on not much as changed, except that I'm as likely to stick on the '76 "In Concert" DVD as the Seconds Out CD. But the last side of SO is just spine-tingling, from the first notes of Cinema Show to the last climax of Los Endos. It never ceases to move me. [/quote] cinema show and the instrumental section of robbery assault and battery are just phenomenal!!!!! great band!

    [quote name='ras52' timestamp='1375804623' post='2165922'] Sorry... just thinking of PC's solo stuff, which is another story, as is Gabriel's. Back to the band: Loved them up to Wind and Wuthering - and thinking of the guitar solos thread I'd mention Firth of Firth and The Lamia. [/quote]in that quiet earth is another great guitar solo.... I like both their solo projects too

    I didn't really want this to turn into a discussion that ends up slating each side of the genesis wagon... :s
