Transmission Impossible
Not for sale to GAS (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) STUNNING 3CD SET OF GENESIS FINEST RADIO RECORDINGS Formed by Charterhouse pupils Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, Peter Gabriel, and Anthony Phillips in 1968, Genesis were named by former pupil, the now disgraced Jonathan King. With Phil Collins and Steve Hackett joining in the early 70s - following the departure of Phillips - after a string of reasonably successful albums through the first half of the decade, the concept album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway was released in 1974, and was promoted with a transatlantic tour featuring an elaborate stage show. Following the Lamb tour, Gabriel left Genesis in August 1975 to begin a solo career. Collins then took over as lead vocalist and following Steve Hacketts departure too, Genesis entered its most successful phase of all, which pretty much continues to this day. This triple disc boxed set celebrates the longevity, musicianship, song writing genius and accessibility of Genesis across their career, containing as it does a trio of radio broadcast recordings featuring some of the bands finest concerts and most cherished sessions.
