Long before embarking on his solo career, Peter Gabriel was front man for Genesis. The albums ("The Lamb Lies Down..." included) recorded by Genesis while PG was a member are vastly better artisticly and musically than the drivel produced by Genesis since Phil Collins took over. The group has become nothing more than vehicle for Collins' ride into mediocrity. I remember reading an interview with Gabriel, where, when questioned about the group's direction since he left the band, he laughed and declined to answer in deference to his friendship with the remaining members of Genesis. Without Peter Gabriel, Genesis has become just another unimportant pop band. Waz Nardbill
