Album DescriptionAvailable in:
In presenting a concise career summary of Genesis, Starbucks and Hear Music have done a surprisingly even-handed job in terms of representing the band's early prog-rock days as well as their later pop-star phase. Thus, 14 FROM OUR PAST offers such arty Peter Gabriel-led 1970s epics as the mellotron-laden "Watcher of the Skies" and the bustling, organ-driven "The Knife," as well as such melodic pop confections of the band's later Phil Collins-fronted period as the McCartneyesque "That's All" and the mellow, romantic "Hold On My Heart." If you want to get an overall picture of the stylistic expanses Genesis traversed in its lifetime, this is an excellent place to turn.
