@Bukowski good rule of thumb although you do then have to discard Duke and Abacab and some other earlier good work before the rest of the 80s thrashed their reputation completely.
There's a great video of them performing this which someone jammed recently here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W35wtfcByIY Gabriel's performance is mesmerising, and I think I have a bit of a crush on geeky bearded Steve Hackett.

I love the storytelling but such a sad tale. Thank you for the link, will put my feet up with that tomorrow afternoon I think.

Never really got to grips with their music, but Gabriel's voice is a thing of beauty

Spectacularly great Jam sir.

Ahh, GOOD Genesis…must dig up some old gems myself.
Bukowski
@curtywyshart My pleasure.
Bukowski
@fsohail No Gabriel No Genesis; that's my philosophy.

@fsohail 'Selling England By The Pound' is a gem.

@pauseliveaction Brilliant! Thank you.

@fsohail I don't listen to any Genesis post 'The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway'.

Great piece of music. They still did some very good things post-Gabriel but nothing like this.

This is good - but reminds me of my ex husband - which is bad! What a dilemma!
florencevibert
Wonderful choice!
Bukowski
@fsrlabel My position regarding post-Gabriel Genesis is immutable.
Bukowski
@lindatee If the connection is inextricable then I should not listen.

@Bukowski Thank you for that kind thought - it gives the aforementioned too much power though - and I'm still so grateful for the 'ex' prefix.
