Genesis

With Peter I'll say Lamb Lies Down, but for Phil I have to say the yellow blocks self titled album. That the one I listen to most of his. I like several others by both of these guys.

I discovered 1) Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (Genesis); 2) Country Life (Roxy Music) and 3) El Dorado (ELO) all at the same time I purchased my first new stereo system, a SONY HP 161 phono compact.   These albums will always be favorites.

@Simonmoon is exactly right >>

It is also my opinion that they lost a lot more, musically speaking, when Steve Hackett left the band, than when Gabriel left the band.

For me, it is not the Gabriel era vs the Collins era. It is the Philips/Hackett era vs the post Hackett era.

Hackett and Philips both did solo albums that are much better that any Genesis album of the post hackett era.

Never could get into Genesis.  All that begatting…

I've been a fan since late 70's in my teen years - I would hear them on radio listening to Stone Trek on KOME on Sunday nights in the bay area - Greg Stone had a great show of mostly progressive rock.  I was just a bit too young to have gone to a show with Gabriel and Duke Tour was my 1st show.  But have seen Peter in concert a few times.

Perhaps I'm one of the "weird" fans that like most all of their music - other than CAS something about Ray's voice that just doesn't agree with me.

In truth - Seconds Out is still loaded on my Jay's transport after listening to a few tracks last nite.

The Lamb, Genesis Live, Seconds Out, 3 Sides Live( the 4 sides live version) and Duke are prob my favorite albums.

Didn't see them on final tour - had tix for Dublin but covid cancelled that - then had tix for Raleigh but had to sell tix as my sister was in hospital - so my last show was on We Can't Dance tour
