    And just in case you REALLY don't know, Phil Collins was also the drummer for the jazz fusion group Brand X while he was with Genesis.


    I had totally forgot about Brand X! Thanks for the reminder, I know I have some of their vinyl somewhere?:D

    I wish Peter would join them, I've seen Genesis a couple of times (post Gabriel) and I've seen Gabriel once. Gabriel put on a much better show!

    He must have kicked the coke about the time he stopped releasing a new album every 6 weeks.

    Peter Gabriel I'd pay to see again any day.

    Gabriel's been on my list of people to see. I highly recommend Secret World Live. I had it on both disk and VHS. Haven't seen it on DVD, but it should be great. Paula Cole sings a strong backup and is featured a good bit in the video.

    Phil Collins has put out some weak **** crap over the last ten years (or longer.) Same old, same old, cookie cutter stuff. If he was a cookie, it would be a Girl Scout Cookie, and a Tagalong at that!

    Weaker and sappier than Against All Odds, which is a decent song. He could give Elton John a run for sappiest crap right alongside Elton's Lion King
    gar-bauge....Heck, Dan Fogelberg and Firefall rock out more than Collins has over the last decade.:D AB, don't even ask about Fogelberg, not worth explaining. Don't know how many have even heard of Firefall, but you aren't missing anything....

    Su,su, Sudio....That was good stuff.

    Now, a Genesis reunion with Gabriel, I'm all in.:)

    i pretty much do not like anything after Hackett left the band..they got too far away from thier prog roots at that point and went for the pop

    Wind and Wuthering was probably the last listenable Genesis album IMO

    Latest comments from Peter Gabriel about a possible reunion with Genesis....
    I was trying to get to the Rome (show), but if they do another (tour leg), I'll try to get there.

    We had discussions about (my taking part), but the time commitment they wanted was growing, and I knew with trying to get the Elders going, I wasn't going to be able to do both. I'm not in principle against the idea of doing something.

    "Peter Gabriel would have no objection to full Genesis reunion".....

    http://www.gigwise.com/news/48557/Peter-Gabriel-Would-Have-No-Objection-To-Full-Genesis-Reunion
    Former Genesis frontman Peter Gabriel has said he would have “no real objection” to a full reunion of the band.

    Gabriel didn't take part in the group's 2007 tour, which included 20 dates around the world.

    At the time, he said he was “happy” that drummer Phil Collins, bassist Mike Rutherford and guitarist Tony Banks were touring, but wanted to concentrate on his own material.

    However, in a new interview with Word, Gabriel said: "In principle I have no real objection to playing with Genesis at some point in the future."

    Gabriel hasn't performed with his former band since he left the group in 1975.

    Guitarist Tony Banks??!!

    It's nice to see this but I have serious doubts. Even on the most recently released 1970-1975 box set interviews he said that he had a hard enough time ditching the ex-Genesis label in the eighties, that he didn't want to re-visit it again. Very weak argument if you ask me. Most people think Genesis was a top 40 hit machine from the 80's unless you are a fan of the band. One reunion tour isn't going to effect his public image. The interview on the box set is from 2007 so he looks to have possibly changed his mind... I'm not holding my breath, and I don't think anybody else is either. :)

    Given Genesis is one of the nominees for the 2010 Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame induction, and I'm betting the group will get in, perhaps this may be the only upcoming possible occasion for the group to reunite with the classic lineup.

    I would love to see it happen, for a number of reasons. The most obvious, to just see them all together again on last time, however I would also get a kick out of seeing what songs they would do. With the exception of The Carpet Crawlers, I can't see many in the R'nR HoF audience recognizing or even getting the songs that they would play with that line up. They could smash all expectations and play Back in NYC! That would be awesome...

    Genesis can always put Chester Thompson in the drummer's seat. After all, he's been part of Genesis' touring band since the late 70s.

    If Phil Collins stays on the drums and does not contribute in any other way, and Peter Gabriel is in then it would be great if Gabriel and Hacket returned. I could tolerate a little of Collins vocals if they toured and did some of the early Collins led Genesis, but please don't try to squeeze in solo Collins or Mike and the Mechanics.

    Thanks for the info Danny! I saw a live concert (Tokyo?) dvd awhile back with Hackett, Chester Thompson on drums, John Wetton on bass ,Ian McDonald on flute,and I think Julian Colbeck on keys. Looking forward to hearing more on this new project.
