| I admit, that this is just a thread to find out songs from the post Gabriel era Genesis that are actually good. I have the 1st two lps after Gabriel left and I like Trick of a Tail very much while Wind and Wuthering has its moments, but is considerably weaker IMO. I guess I want to know what songs outside of these two lps are good. |

Post-Hackett (ie., Trick of the Tail, Wind & Wuthering), the only songs I care for are Undertow and Guide Vocal. ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

| Duke's Travels. Second Home by the Sea. The instrumental part of ABACAB. Naminanu. Not much else, and I'm grading on a curve. None of them are really spectacular by the band's prior standards. Maybe if Mama came on the radio, I might leave the station alone for a little while. An odd song that one is. |

Trick is probably my favourite Genesis album and Duke has some very strong material. I'm guessing this thread will get moved to top ten lists so 1. Dance On A Volcano 2. Duke's Travels/End 3. Mad Man Moon 4. Deep In The Motherlode 5. One For The Vine 6. Dodo/Lurker 7. Domino 8. Home By The Sea 9. Fading Lights 10.The Lady Lies

Duchess 13. Heathaze 14. Turn It On Again 15. Dukes Travles/End In my opnion all of these post Gabriel songs are up there. Trick is an amazing album!

Overall I really like Trick of the Tail and Then There Were Three. Trick: Entangled Squonk Wind: Eleventh Earl of Mar Unquiet Slumbers.../In That Quiet Earth Three: Deep in the Motherlode Down and Out Duke: Behind the Lines Duke's Travels Abacab: Keep it Dark Dodo Genesis: Mama Second Home by the Sea Invisible Touch: Land of Confusion The Brazilian We Can't Dance: I can't remember Calling All Stations: still coming to terms with this one ------------- My other avatar is a Porsche It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle if it is lightly greased. -Kehlog Albran |

I enjoy all of Trick, Wind, and And Then There Were Three. For the others, my favorites are. Duke: Duchess, Heathaze, Cul-De-Sac, and... hm, Evidence of Autumn. Abacab: Abacab, No Reply At All, Me And Sarah Jane, Keep It Dark, Dodo/Lurker... the rest is iffy, but the album as a whole I like. Closest to new wave Genesis ever got. Genesis: Mama, That's All, Home By The Sea, Silver Rainbow... Taking It All Too Hard Invisible Touch: Tonight Tonight Tonight, Domino, In Too Deep, The Brazilian We Can't Dance: No Son of Mine, Jesus He Knows Me, I Can't Dance, Fading Lights Sorry... Calling All Stations doesn't do anything for me. -------------

I enjoy all of A Trick Of The Tail, Wind And Wuthering, the Spot The Pigeon EP, And Then There Were Three (including B sides), Duke (including B sides), Abacab and Genesis. From Invisible Touch I like "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight", "Domino" and from The B-sides "Feeding The Fire" and "Do The Neurotic". From We Can't Dance I like "No Son Of Mine", "Hold On My Heart", "Dreaming While You Sleep" and "Fading Lights". From Calling All Stations I like the title track and "Congo". |

I think the post-Gabriel albums with Hackett are about as good as the albums with PG. Some of my favourites with Hackett: Dance on a Volcano Mad Man Moon 11th Earl of Mar Unquiet Slumbers for the Sleepers... / In That Quiet Earth Post-Hackett: Down and Out Duke's Travels/Duke's End Dodo/Lurker 2nd Home by the Sea Domino -------------

I'm certainly in the minorty but I like most of the post Gabriel output. Not as much as the things with Gabriel but it's good pop-music although that's not exactly my favorite genre. The things you should check out are probably (not counting the stuff with Hacket expect the Archive songs): ...And then there were 3 (is it just me that thinks that the sound quality is very wishy washy?): Follow you, follow me; Snowbound (most definatly); Burning Rope; Scenes from a Night's Dream; The Lady Lies -Duke: The Duke Suite (Behind the Lines; Duchess; Duke's Travels; Duke's End) -Abacab: Abacab -Genesis: Mama; That's All; Home by the Sea; Second Home by the Sea -Invisble Touch: I'd say everything but for the progressive touch go for: Domino (Medley) and The Brazilian -We Can't Dance: I Can't Dance; Driving the Last Spike; Dreaming while you sleep; Fading distant Lights -Archives #2: The Day the Light went out; It's Yourself Trick of the Tail is in my opinion a fantastic album (I like it better than Foxtrot). |

The whole of Duke, ATOTT, and W&W are great, and ATTWT is consistently good, so the other albums: Abacab: Abacab, No Reply At All, Keep It Dark (not entirely familiar with it) Genesis: Mama, Home By The Sea (that's it really) Invisible Touch: Tonight Tonight Tonight, Land Of Confusion, Anything She Does, Domino (love the whole album though) We Can't Dance: Jesus He Knows Me, I Can't Dance Calling All Stations: just avoid it to be honest...

| There are many songs I like after Gabriel (and many other I don't, too). However, the ones I find most enjoyable would have to be "One for the Vine", "Mama", and the "Home bythe Sea, second home by the sea" combo. I guess I would have to add the "Unquiet Slumbers for the Sleepers in that Quiet Earth" combo, "Afterglow", and "The Brazilian" too (and perhaps even "Land of Confusion"). |

| The one I thought was fantastic for its particular position in the band's evolution is Heathaze. Then there's Dance On a Volcano, One For the Vine, Mad Man Moon, Entangled, Squonk, Blood On the Rooftops, Eleventh Earl of Mar, Me and Sarah Jane, the Home By the Sea saga, and most of Domino before it goes into its finale. |

Even with a time machine you would also need a bit of luck. I remember applying for tickets for the Lyceum (in the days you had to send off a cheque or maybe a postal order and then wait for months with your fingers crossed) only to be disappointed! Had to wait for them to go back to big venues to see them again (ABACAB). I really like Vancouver for some reason. ------------- Help me I'm falling! |

Good list. I would add the Brazilian, Duchess, second home by the sea, Burning rope, Domino(one and two), driving the last spike, Congo, Man on the corner, unquiet slumbers for the sleepers, Afterglow, snowbound, silver rainbow and Entangled. Maybe a few more that I can't think of right now.

1) Deep in The Motherlode - my very favourite, I love this song and it's perfect for me, be it any live version or the studio one; 2) Los Endos - it has to be from the Seconds Out show, this version sounds perfect to me, especially the drums throughout the whole music - amazing! And it was wrongly included as a second part of Dance On A Volcano in that '77 album, go figure that; 3) Dance on A Volcano - I prefer the studio version of it, which still moves me a lot and deserves indeed honorable mention here; 4) Duke's Travels/End - yep, for me too and obviously well pointed out in this thread, really quite moving pieces that I like too; 5) ...In That Quiet Earth - this is for me a very interesting instrumental piece!

Blood on the Rooftops rates a photo-finish second place behind Entangled. I really like many other post-Gabriel Genesis songs too but these stand a notch above all the others. The common thread being a heavy dose of Steve Hackett's writing and playing. Win/win for me. ------------- "You never had the things you thought you should have had and you'll not get them now..." |

Except its as a result of revisiting Wind & Wuthering and realizing that over the decade of not listening to it even once - I've gone from lukewarm to loving it... more than Trick of the Tail (love the parts of it to death but always found it a little patchy). I'm particularly fond of One for the Vine - and ready to give Genesis post 1976 a fair chance.

Track 8: "...In That Quiet Earth" sends tingles up my spine whenever I hear it. Actually, I quite like "Wind & Wuthering" as a whole. ------------- No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man. |

| Pretty much anything from a trick of the tail. I think abacab was when they started to go down the toilet but even that one has a few gems on it. |

Yeah, from Abacab I also like "man on the corner" and the title track along with those mentioned. Keep it dark is not too bad either. From the self titled(shapes)album I also like "silver rainbow." I think that's a rather under rated song. Also, I assume you are including second home by the sea when you just say HBTS. You can't forget part two. ;) From IT I also like "the brazilian" a lot. The title track is at least catchy and also "tonight times three" sounds like an epic pop song with a prog instrumental middle section that has a nice build to it so that one is fine by me as well. I'm not as familiar with the last two but I agree "fading lights" is worthy of a mention. Maybe their last proggy epic. CAS sounds pretty close to neo prog to me since most of the songs seem to be shorter. I don't despise it like some seem to and in some ways it's less commercial than the five or six or so before it but ultimately I admit it does fall a bit short.

I like all of A Trick of the Tail and Wind and Wuthering, but Blood on the Rooftops is to me a transcendent piece (still gives me goosebumps). I absolutely adore it. ------------- "Questions are a burden to others; answers a prison for oneself" (The Prisoner, 1967). |

^ off topic but I keep wanting to ask. Who are all the guys at the bottom of your posts? Just wondering if they are connected or just random guys. ( May be they all played Dr. Who?
