In the beginning there was vinyl: Rhino returns the band's early classics to their roots with a 6-LP box
Following the upgrade of the Genesis catalog with three comprehensive boxed sets of their entire studio output (plus bonus DVDs), Rhino brings the legendary band's early era back to its vinyl origins in style. Presented on 180g audiophile vinyl, the six-LP bosed set features five landmark albums from the group's seminal Peter Gabriel-fronted era: Trespass, Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot, Selling England by the Pound and the double concept LP The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. Collected in a handsome, protective slipcase box, each of the five albums comes in its own heavyweight gatefold sleeve featuring the classic cover art faithfully reproduced from its original source. The set contains some of the band's most adventurous albums and chronicles Gabriel's groundbreaking tenure as frontman for Genesis, one of the top-selling recording acts of all time.
The 180g vinyl LPs feature new stereo mixes by Nick Davis and will NOT be available individually - this box set is the only way to get them!
1970's Trespass marked the beginning of a five-year journey that saw the band create ever more daring works of progressive rock. It features guitarist Anthony Phillips and drummer John Mayhew, who were replaced on the following album by Steve Hackett and Phil Collins respectively.
Nursery Cryme came in 1971, spotlighting the instrumental power and theatricality of the new line up on stand-outs including "The Musical Box", "The Return of the Giant Hogweed", and "The Foundation of Salmacis".
1972's Foxtrot was a critcally and popularly acclaimed breakthrough album that hit #12 in the U.K. and introduced two tracks that would be live staples for years: "Watcher Of the Skies" and "Supper's Ready".
Selling England By the Pound (1973) grew the band's popularity and found their inventive storytelling and arrangements coming into sharper focus on tracks including "The Cinema Show", "Firth of Fifth", and their first U.K. hit single, "I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)".
The 1974 double album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway was Gabriel's final with the band before Phil Collins took over as lead singer - the title track, "Carpet Crawlers" and "In the Cage" remain popular parts of live Genesis shows.
