The Genesis Songbook

Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, and Mike Rutherford formed a partnership in the late 1960s with the goal of becoming songwriters rather than recording artists. That original plan changed when they signed a record deal and became the band Genesis. The group evolved from the underground music scene with early albums such as *Trespass* and *Nursery Cryme*, eventually achieving mainstream success with the addition of drummer and singer Phil Collins. Albums like *We Can't Dance* and *Invisible Touch* solidified their status as household names. By speaking with each member of the band, one can learn about their favorite Genesis songs and the significance certain tracks hold in the band's history. Songs featured include "I Can't Dance," "Invisible Touch," "Follow You Follow Me," "The Musical Box," "Supper's Ready," "I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)," "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway," "Afterglow," "Misunderstanding," "Turn It On Again," "Mama," and "Land of Confusion."
