Genesis


Any long time Genesis (with or without Peter Gabriel) fans out there? What's your favorite albums?

I like both lineups.  Favorite album for each:  The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway - Gabriel.  Genesis (the blocks) - Collins.  Saw several times in concert with Collins.  Saw both Collins and Gabriel solo in concert.  All were excellent.  

@bzawa  -- great suggestions, happy to see Kultivator mentioned!

The five first Ange records are a delight, and their second 'Le Cimetière Des Arlequins' is in my top ten prog albums of all time.

Have you heard Hackett's ' Voyage Of The Acolyte'?  It's an awesome record in my opinion.

@bzawa - for the best sounding 'Nursery Cryme', look into the double-45 version from Acoustic Sounds/Analog Productions.... Unfortunately, those earlier Gabriel-era Genesis albums were not the best sounding ones, so even that leaves something to be desired. Looking forward to that version of 'Foxtrot' coming out later this year. 

@larsman I started listening to KOME somewhere around that mid '70s time - since I was only 9 in '73.

 

@guscreek Dennis Erectus was crazy!!

Larsman is likely correct; I haven't purchased any of the new 45 RPM re-issues but the early Genesis stuff has inconsistent mastering.

Regardless, my best 33.3 RPM copy of Nursery Crime was pressed by Nippon Phonograph, item RJ-7302 copyright 1978.  It has the quietest vinyl out of the three  I have.

It may be difficult to find.  Good luck!
