No they have not, it's very much of that time and place.muser said:It could be any number of things. In your opinion has genesis created music that is relevant beyond its own era, a musical sound that transcends the period it's in. I personally would say they had.

Yes, offensivemuser said:Definitely bland, but offensive? Do we regard the artist with scorn and then taint all that s/he's achieved. Are there any example of people disliking a performer and enjoying their music (and vice versa).

I mainly like his solo stuff, but I had a reasonable not-actually-kill-them tolerence level for Genesis too, when PG was still with em. (He got much much better on his own later, IMO).
(I was always more of a Floyd and Zeppelin man in those days though, before I discovered the Clash!)
Thus, for all sorts of reasons including the unofficial but true FACT that Gabriel correctly thinks Collins is a twat, I'm in no way at all a fan of the Gabriel-less Genesis, especially any 'line-up' that has Collins within the same town (universe?) as them ...
And I'd only tolerate** Genesis even featuring Peter Gabriel, if Collins was assassinated first .... ideally by me ...
**if sufficiently enhanced, almost, just about, like ...
(PLEASE don't come to Glastonbury!!!!!!!)

And Nazareth and Uriah Heep are touring - what is the world coming to.
Dubversion said:I own two Genesis albums - Selling England By The Pound and The Lamb... , and I still think they're shit. I keep them for sentimental reasons. I used to have more, but my sentiment didn't stretch that far.
they're shit.

It doesn't matter who wrote the songs.ianw said:So that's one of his own, one collaboration, one song nicked off Prince, one song nicked off the Supremes.
At least you didn't pick "Another Day In Paradise".
