Lacks the sheer funk & soul of Phil’s version

Apologies for mixing my verbs, but thanks for fucking up my joke.

I need a sub-ed.
Because ?
Irritating slaphead, prog-goblin, talent vacuum, drum solo, fax-coward reasons probably.

I always thought that he was the commercial element of the band and arm wrestled the progressive element out.
This is the common misconception. He was very much cutting edge prog/fusion in Genesis (he was ubiquitous with his commercial solo stuff and that was where he got his release).
It was Tony Banks who wanted Genesis to move to a more radio friendly/commercial formula to ride on the back of Collins’ popularity.
Once Peter Gabriel left, Tony Banks was the driving force behind Genesis.
They were fukd

Oh, I don’t know. I still enjoyed everything up until Calling All Stations. For very different reasons. But good music is good music.

Not for me, I bought three or four of the post Gabriel albums but couldn’t get on with any of them. I’ve still got them but they never get played.

Used to quite like this in the 70s
I never enjoyed any of his solo stuff all appeared MOR - In the Air tonight is up the with Denys as stuff I avoid listening. I never seriously investigated brand X as by then I Genesis were Pop/rock

Quite like 80s pop Genesis. For 80s child Dad rock car tape nostalgia reasons.
Thank you Patrick Bateman

I quite like the Invisible Touch LP and picked up a copy for £2. I have no other Genesis music whatsoever.
Also appreciated for the same reason. In fact I think it’s in my Lexus cd changer.
