    Phil Collins, fresh from his former band Flaming Youth, puts together some grooves that would later become staples of classic Gabriel Genesis. Ditto for Steve Hackett, back then a relatively unknown figure, who for all intents and purposes was very i...mpressive for having not played in any bands prior to Genesis. Tony Banks was starting to mess with other keyboards, mainly Mellotron with Mike and Peter really starting to go into their own as musicians really. Lyrically, the band were more adventurous with Peter starting to understand theatre and stagecraft. But musically, there really is very little change from Trespass. Very influenced by King Crimson's debut (who wasn't at the time) it shows a band still in transition trying to find their nich. All things taken into consideration it is an album chocked full of wonderful ideas set to a new voice by Peter. It took a couple of tours for the band to fully realize their potential. Having said that, this album is better than most that were being conceived at the time. I find this to be a low key "John Barley Corn Must Die." A good album, but better things were to yet to come...

    Genesis' first fully realized, mature album, Nursery Cryme, is still somewhat uneven, but the stuff that does work well works so well that it carries the record. This includes "The Musical Box," which became a highlight of the group's live shows, presenting Peter Gabriel's extraordinary abilities as a singer/actor as well as hinting at a level of lyrical sophistication that dazzled many fans and onlookers. "Return of the Giant Hogweed" was an even better showcase for the group's playing.
