i think ive only listened to live version like once so idk if its much different or anything but all the melodies are really catchy to me

i think that was one of Genesis strength's more than most (Yes for example) and in a way it makes a lot of sense that they gradually drifting towards full on catchy pop

Yeah it’s not normally “my sound” but there’s something special about it.

This isn't the version that's your top 5? why tf did you link it

rvi

2y

because the visual performance part of it is cool

and just skimmed it and its almost the exact same anyway from what i could tell besides one little guitar part i noticed and a greater pause so Gabriel could switch into the flower costume ( )

couldve sworn you were already a fan tbh but im pretty sure youll love it

Fkn 17 minutes into the version he's only heard once

rvi

its not your first time hearing it though i thought? im skipping to all the best parts in that vid now and its still absolutely astounding and only suffers imperfect audio quality

dont let my praise affect your opinion too much but its worth hearing many times to digest anyway. Foxtrot album overall is amazing

I have a feeling that the period of their career that would connect with me the most would be the middle transitional era before they go full blown Phil Collins pop, but where they’re still holding a bit onto their artier prog sensibilities.

rvi

yeah that stuff is great. ive been really liking the first two albums with Collins as lead singer but they didnt even drop the prog yet for those really.

im not as familiar with it yet but I think Duke is probably the one that most exemplifies what youre thinking about. id say it could be "prog pop"

ive never been big into his solo stuff but Phil Collins voice is pretty much baked into my ears because he's my parents favorite singer

If it's on Foxtrot then yeah I must've heard it but half f***ing hour songs take a while to sink in plus this is live

Gave up on the album cause this thread was getting close to the 70s

Fella

2y

Yeah he was never a great solo album artist. Some killer singles tho.

rvi

2y

ok yeah def pick it back up, you also know its good with the Fella cosign even though its the type of prog he usually wouldnt like

im guessing you didnt hear 1971's Nursery Cryme much then either?

rvi

2y

ive still never even heard an album from him, only singles

Elric

2y

I did, wasn't digging it

I like solo Gabriel a ton but he's bugging me on these

rvi

2y

nursery cryme sank in a lot for me recently. their true opus is coming for 1973 though

and guess im the opposite where i was never able to get super into solo peter gabriel before where i liked his voice less

A buddy of mine just recommended First Utterance by Comus—which is also apart of that scene, so I’ll definitely check out all of these very soon.

Fella

It’s good tbh
