r/Genesis

I’m a beginner and the song I first learned is firth of fifth both solo and the rest. that’s it, where I’ll be going next you know you can never go.

So I love Phil Collins, he inspired me to be a drummer. I celebrate the guys entire catalog! We all know he can’t do what he used to and it seems it’s all done, Genesis and his solo career as far as live shows and recordings. I always wondered and thought it would be cool if Simon and Nick Collins “joined” Mike and Tony (Phil could back vocals and play percussion and be there of course). Simon could sing, and then join Nick on the drums like Phil and Chester did. Just a thought I had listening to Sound of Contact (great record by the way). I have always wondered too by Simon wasn’t chosen for things…anyway just a thought!

Hi,

I'm just wondering if this site is safe from viruses / any harm, as I want to download the Knebworth 1992 show from Guitars101, if this isn't appropriate for the sub, mods can remove it.

Thanks.

Daryl Easleas article is just fantastic. The torrentit downpour, Talk Talk getting bombarded, Peter arriving in a coffin and the passion of the band and the fans! Give it a read if you haven’t already !

Did anyone on here ever subscribe to “The Waiting Room” magazine? I can’t remember how I discovered the magazine but I really enjoyed them. Think they were released every 3 months(ish). I’m going back to the latter half of the 90s when I was a young teen!
I lost them all to some thieving bastards!

They're coming to Boston and I'm thinking about going. Has anybody seen them?

I don’t know why I decided too, but I think it stemmed from Phil Collin’s voice. I was listening to Genesis (which is not a frequent thing) and felt like I should do a deeper dive on their music. So, I started with Reddit, what do the true fans recommend.

Everyone is fairly in accord that “Selling England by the Pound” was one of their best if not their best. I listened the whole way through and wasn’t super impressed, it felt soft, almost like an ELP type of vibe. I really did enjoy “The Cinema Show”, but that was really the only one that stuck out to me.

When I first decided to listen to Genesis I was listening to “Turn it on Again”, should I just start with that album? Is Duke a good album to listen to in general? I’m sorry, I know my opinion isn’t that of the majority and I do plan to listen to “Selling” again.

Why can’t I stop listening to this turkey from 1983?

I’d like to be “Moving Under” from this “Man of Spells” but “The Wheel Keeps Turning “ but “Say You’ll Never Leave Me” and maybe “This is Love?” Ugh ! I can’t stop listening to it. Is there something wrong with me?
