Notes: Genesis: Tony Banks (vocals, 12-string guitar, keyboards); Mike Rutherford (vocals, 12-string guitar, bass); Peter Gabriel (vocals, flute); Phil Collins (vocals, drums, percussion); Steve Hackett (guitar).Recorded at Trident Studios, London, England. Genesis's third album was a far cry from the delicate folk-rock tapestries and chiming 12-string guitars of its predecessor TRESPASS. The infusion of a semi-classical structural sensibility had become more prevalent. Fragile ballads are at a minimum, replaced by driving classical-rock epics (not that TRESPASS lacked for epics) full of heavy guitar and bass lines and sweeping mellotron. The sound occasionally recalls the refined but uncompromising instrumental attack of the Nice (particularly in Tony Banks's Keith Emerson-ish blasts of organ bravura). The interlocking guitar arpeggios and folkie moments are still present, however, providing contrast to NURSERY CRYME's bolder moments. The group's sophisticated compositional style and Gabriel's eccentric lyrics are at their height on "The Return of the Giant Hogweed," "The Fountain of Salamacis" and "The Musical Box."

I add new items most days..........please take a look

All items carefully graded audio-visually, and are played on a high quality system.

Please feel able to bid with confidence , as a collector myself I realize the requirements in the gradings of sleeves and discs , and how important it is to recieve items in the condition as advertised in listings , I notice many sellers on eBay using the buzzwords 'Stunning' , 'Superb' , 'Awesome' 'etc etc etc...... and have grossly long-winded descriptions by these 'experts' , which tend to hide the fact that the items on offer are only Average/Very Good , substandard items..... I take time and care to grade items correctly and only list quality records........

I have been a lifelong music fan , my first concert visit was in 1957 (Birmingham Town Hall Skiffle Contest!) and have bought records of all the great music since 1959 , and had the privelege of seeing most of the great artists live too (I saw The Beatles twice....)
