Again very good 👍
I love the Genesis stuff up to and including The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. Not keen on the post PG stuff. I remember buying Duke at around the same time as PG3/Melt and thought it appalling....especially Misunderstanding. Flogged it back to the record shop within days.Quote:

Womad 82 was a financial disaster so PG had to get his old Genesis band mates to do a concert a few months later to make up for all the financial losses. Another one of my favourites Mark Hollis and his band Talk Talk were the support act.Quote:

People call him and his like snowflakes etc but you have to have passion to write a song like that
I did my best to avert it, but I'm afraid this thread has now descended into a bunch of granddad-rock nostalgiaQuote:

That doesn't address what B.Oddie said though.Quote:

6 music is great, have it on in work on occasion. I hear songs that i like, then completely forget about them. I can understand people preferring their own generation, in terms of music, but i do find it a little odd when they get stuck in that time, and all they like is stuff from the 70's 80's etc.Quote:

Falls for what exactly? You seem to think I'm looking for some mythical status because I've proffered an opinion that genesis, Gabriel and Collins are the equivalent of musical diarrhea. If that makes me a bad lad etc etc in your eyes then learn to deal with it.Quote:
