2. I'm the same way. Phil Collins hit the suck button after "In the Air Tonight" |
|
and that "Invisible Touch" album for Genesis was ass. But earlier stuff was great.

5. A later day Genesis album I like is We Can't Dance |
|
I think it's great, in fact.. ballads like "Hold On My Heart" and "Never A Time" mixed with quirky songs like "I Can't Dance" and rockers like "Jesus He Knows Me."

6. Those are my favorite Genesis albums too. Though I must admit I do like "Seconds Out" |
|
the live album released right after "Lamb Lies Down" when Phil Collins took over on vocals. Wind and Wuthering wasn't bad but they went downhill from there, IMO. As a long tme Genesis fan, I can always tell the difference between Phil Collins solo work and later Genesis stuff. His solo stuff sounded much more "Top 40" to me.
