Default Re: Genesis v Genesis

Personally (isn't that a redundant way to start?) I lean more toward the old Genesis and much more to Peter Gabriel than Phil Collins. I certainly give both of them credit though. Peter is brilliant in a very different form, with is African influenced songs etc.

Phil is also very good, even though the sound is more "commercial". If it's a style he enjoys playing, who cares? Lots of people listen to it and enjoy it. He does have a few really good ones like, No Son of mine. Those are heavy lyrics. Solsbury Hill is really the opposite. I guess that tells you how different their characters are.

..wonder if Peter wrote "Big Time" about Phil....
