(ETA: This track illustrates Mike Rutherford as one of the most underrated bass players of that era - really, really good bass player.)

(And more - the horns are EWF's horn section )

You sort of have to decide on weird Gabriel era or fun pop era. I think this starts to morph into the pop era. I have no idea what Phil's accent is (though the video obviously suggests Owlie/Mexican).
"Illegal Alien."

I disagree - Duke and Abacab still had vestiges of the 4 and 5-man eras, more progressive or art rock sensibilities, although tempered by Collins' catchy hooks. Genesis (1983) probably marked the final step into a shallower, but more commercial sound with - very little of the old sound or spirit at that point.

I like Peter Gabriel, but my favorite of his was Solsbury Hill - the song where he explained, musically, his departure from Genesis.

They were all geniuses. Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins. I enjoy both. Both badass motherfrickers. Really influenced my generation's music.

My ex gf loved Solsbury Hill. I hate her. Therefore, I hate you. Listening to Genesis (1983). Absolute masterpiece.

Lamb Lies Down is my favorite. While I do like some of the Collins stuff, I hate a lot of it as well.

Can anyone recommend a Gabriel era Genesis album? I like the Collins era & Gabriel solo stuff, but never really tried Gabriel era Genesis.

I never really listened to the Peter Gabriel stuff in the seventies. It was more art rock than what you saw once Collins took the helm after Gabriel left. I honestly don't think I could name one Genesis song under Peter Gabriel.

It's just that when Phil Collins took over, they became a pop band, not a prog band...
