I love the “In the Cage” medley from “Three Sides Live”
I won’t say you’re no son of mine just because we can’t dance. That’s all tonight, tonight, tonight, mama!
Hold On My Heart
White Mountain!
Maybe not too late…please
It’s difficult to choice one track. Seven Stones from Nursery Cryme.
Solo Tony Banks featuring Toyah: Lion Of Symmetry
‘supper’s ready’
throwing it all away
Dancing with the moonlit knight for me.
Invisible Touch!
yeah!!!!
hi from Russia!
would be a great compilation to have-count me in!
favourite tracl? that’s hard..hm -silver rainbow!
favourite album- a trick of the tail, sooo fine!
My favourite Genesis track would have to be “Blood On The Rooftops” from Wind and Wuthering. What emotion and atmosphere!!
favorite track: home by the sea
“Suppers Ready”….25 minutes of genius, madness, hilarity, musical virtuosity which just sums up the Gabriel era perfectly.
Mama
The whole “Selling Enland by the Pound” album. Awesome!!!
Thanks for the comp.
My fave Genesis track today is Abacab!
I know what I like..(In your wardrobe)
Mama. The 12″ extended is awesome!
I’m going to try and be individual and say ‘Keep It Dark’.
the brazilian
I would be GR8 2 win R-Kive
Woohoo!
The Carpet Crawlers
Can-Utility and the Coastliners is still my fave Genesis song.
Gabriel Era: The Musical Box
Post-Gabriel: Afterglow
(Have Genesis fans invented any nice acronyms to describe band periods?)
Duke’s Travels, from the perfect album Duke
Favorite track is Supper’s Ready
Always go back to Supper’s Ready, one of the archetypal prog songs.
I’m not too convinced we need another Genesis greatest hits compilation especially if you own all the studio and live CD box sets as I do, plus, don’t forget The Platinum Collection which was an excellent reverse chronological 3CD set, however, for those that didn’t know Genesis as a five piece, this is an interesting collection as it also features solo projects from all five members as well. Can anyone honestly say that they have a “favorite” track when there’s such a huge back catalogue?
Saying all that, Suppers Ready has to be one of their best tunes, plus some of the more obscure and lesser known songs such as Get ‘Em Out By Friday, The Fountain Of Salmacis, Dancing With The Moonlight Knight & finally Looking For Someone are definitely in my top 10.
My favourite track: Land of confusion. And they should re-release it as World of confusion.
Definitely Supper’s Ready; great track. And from a golden era of King Crimson, Floyd, and Jethro Tull.
For me it’s The Musical Box.
I am still partial to the title track ABACAB (which they rehearsed but then decided not to play on their reunion tour 7 years ago – I am still bitter!)
Land of Confusion !
Follow you Follow me.
…this time I´d vote für “Wot Gorilla?” – What a catchy impressive instrumental!
“No Son Of Mine”: after years of hobbying in the basement, in 1991 I got my first real radiojob at a local radiostation. The Genesis-album “We Can’t Dance” just came out and we played the first single “No Son Of Mine” a lot. A LOT. Now, more than twenty years later (and being a professional radio-DJ) I still get shivers down my spine every time I hear the famous “ping pong-tennis” intro. I takes me back to those great and unforgettable days of the beginning (= Genesis!) of my career… Love the song…
Turn It On Again is my favourite track.
I Know What I Like.
Great childhood memories of a bygone age!
Possibly the best band ever! Favourite tracks: Firth of Fifth, Supper´s ready, Eleventh Earl of Mar, Domino
Certainly a record that will be on my wishlist.
Favorite track, one among several, is Home By The Sea.
Btw, the link to commenting leads to a Deep Purple-release.
Heathaze. Am I alone in this world?
Afterglow (Phil, Mike, Tony and Steve at their best)
Currently it’s ‘Can-Utility and the Coastliners’ from Foxtrot, in my opinion, probably the greatest album in the history of popular music. Almost certainly my favourite album (from a collection currently of nearly 3,000 CDs)
For me, when Phil Collins left his drum kit, the rot set in. Still hugely professional with a still unique sound, but the whole sound changed (for the worse). Not that there weren’t some songs of artistic merit, but strictly the group should have changed their name.
Gabriel era: The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, Collins era: Home By The Sea.
Return Of the Giant Hogweed
Home by the Sea for me. Was never a big Genesis fan until this.
The whole of Selling England.
Turn it on again
