    I have this full DVD amongst others, but as they were conversions from 16mm film etc, not the greatest quality.

    Of all the music I still listen to from my youth, Genesis are still tops. I`ll listen to at least one album (up to Wind & Wuthering) every other day or so. If I`m on a long trip I`ll do all five or six.

    I know we have one fan here......any more?

    Foxtrot was my favourite album for many years. Since I`ve gotten older though, I now favour A trick of the tail. Even my wife, who is more of a Bon Jovi type likes Genesis now.

    I never liked most of their stuff after W&W. A lot of people put their demise down to Gabriel leaving. I say it was when Steve Hackett left. The two albums they did after PG left were superb. Then SH left. They were never the same after that.

    A lot of folks put it down to the influence of PC. But I don't buy that. One only has to look at who was writing the stuff, certainly wasn't PC.
    I actually like ALL of their stuff, even the pop stuff. Keep an open mind...:WINK1:

    Better check the video if you haven`t seen it before. It often gets pulled from YT for some reason. It`s just a shame Phil has to wear a Minnesota North Stars jersey.

      What I like about Genesis, is the musical journey they take you on, even with some of their pop stuff, as with Home By The Sea...:)
