1978 was the start of the GENESNOOZE era. (AKA the Gene-shits era)

Stay with me,
My love I hope youll always be
Right here by my side if ever I need you
Oh my love

Now there's a song that will give you goose-bumps, followed by a
forceful expulsion of the contents of your stomach through the mouth.



Oh, come on, Clay. Tell us what you really think! You're so shy.


My feeling is that Genesis lost their "edge" when Gabriel left. Their solution was...add more lights! Yes! That's it! Lights will  so much more to our show than ever could.


I'll never forget the let down seeing the band on "Trick of the Tail" tour stop in Toronto. Phil sang "Supper's Ready" while wearing a Maple Leafs jersey and had his hands in his pockets most of the time. So inspiring...
