[@GreenGrugach]

​@@JimDriverJim, my British brother, please watch U2's criminally underrated Popmart tour, I got into U2 when I was 14, wrote them off as an 'old band' but I heard their Discotheque and was blown away, America never understood that album and U2 distance themselves from it but imo it is their best work, Pop is my number one album by any band, Actung Baby is in my top 10, Zooropa is in my top 20 as is their Million Dollar Hotel ost, no U2 albums post 1999 are in my top 100, NLOTH maybe at a push, on each album since 1999 they have a few extraordinary songs but as albums they are overcooked, safe mode to their detriment musically, Pop is really all about Edge, Mullen and Clayton but Bono steers the ship very well, I really recommend it and although I was too young their ZooTV live from Sydney is incredible also, all the best from Eire 🇮🇪🤝🇬🇧 good on you calling out Clapton, we are both not on the same frequency as that odious bloke, take care brother.

[@YungStinkyWinky]

Early Genesis was genius, frankly. Peter Gabriel et all were only in their very early 20s when they put together "Supper's Ready", an absolute powerhouse of composition and themes, perhaps the best prog song of all time. That's wild. Prog demands a certain... attention. A suspension of disbelief. Early Genesis was telling Fairy Tales. Lewis Carol stuff. It's supposed to be magical. Far out. Not "smart", not "relatable", but just bizarre. But not liking them because they came from money, that's pretty shallow mate.

Not keen on Queen myself, but I get the most defensive responses from many people when I tell them that. After watching the excellent support acts (inc. Supercharge & Steve Hillage) at their Hyde Park concert in 1976 I gave them a chance but realised halfway through their 1st song I wasn't going to enjoy it, so walked out - possibly the only time I've left an event early.

[@Pwecko]

I saw Supercharge a couple of times in the mid-70s. They were brilliant. They supported Suzi Quatro at Manchester University in 1976 and went down a storm. As soon as they finished, nearly everyone left, and she played to a virtually empty room.

Queen pissed me off at Live Aid. Everyone else was explicitly playing for Africa, many of them clearly passionate about the cause. Queen were just playing a big gig on tv, for nobody but themselves.

A record is: any kind of recording available in any format; it's also a song. A Long Player (LP) is not specifically a 12" vinyl album - it's an album that's longer than an EP. That's it. The format doesn't matter. A CD is an LP - or an EP or a single. Vinyl is an LP or EP or single. Cassette is an LP or EP or single. A file (digital) is an LP or EP or single. Look at adverts for whatever new album in 1989 or 1994 - "available on LP, CD and cassette" - the evolution (education) hadn't figured it out yet - LP is not a format. 15 years plus later someone releasing a new LP simply meant a new album, regardless of format.

I used to like Zeppelin, but after I found out how they "stole" or "borrowed" music without giving proper credit turned me off. When they stole from Spirit and got away with it, in my opinion, that really upset me. It was taken without credit and I don't care what a court ruling says.

[@JimDriver]

They were very naughty millionaires. Cheers!

[@stephenpeterson6676]

Bro say what you want about the stolen lyrics (because yeah it’s pretty much just lyrics) but I’m sorry, you’re a goof if you think they stole stairway from spirit. You don’t steal a basic chord progression that’s been in written music since the beginning. It was such an obvious cash grab from the estate of randy California, he didn’t even do anything about it himself and probably would disagree with it.

[@lyndoncmp5751]

They didn't steal from Spirit. That cord progression is hundreds of years old. Taurus is forgettable mediocrity. Zeppelin won their case in court. TWICE. Get over and deal with it. Also, Zeppelin credited others at least half a dozen times without being forced to. Willie Dixon was 100% fully credited for two songs on the first album right from the first pressings. They didnt always credit, but they actually did on a number of tracks. Far far more stole from Zeppelin over the last 56 years, and Zeppelin never sued anyone.

I’m pretty much with you on your picks except The Who, which I love. As for Led Zeppelin, it still boggles my mind that they won the lawsuit brought by the band Spirit, and Willie Dixon should have gotten a lot richer than he did, they ripped him off so much.

What's life-experience? They (Genesis in this case) probably had experiences in aspects of life you never had.

My country (Finland) is pretty equal so I don't understand your reasoning at all, that emphasis on class thinking. The parents are rich and the musicians went to private school, so what. It is completely irrelevant, the most important thing is music and imagination. And their art touches me, the son of quite poor parents.

While I can't agree on the early stuff by The Who (basically the first two albums and the first few singles), I'm 80% with you there. I wish in a way you'd included The Beatles too, who I feel were the greatest Beat Group ever to come out of Liverpool but peaked circa 'A Hard Day's Night'.

[@JimDriver]

Not sure I agree with you about the Beatles to be honest. When you think that they were the same age as the members of Genesis when they wrote and performed most of their great songs, the difference between the two bands is staggering. The members of the Beatles had a varied and more robust history than Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins and their chums. I'm a big champion of the Beatles I'm afraid, though I do agree that their solo stuff after the band broke up is generally pretty lame. Cheers!

I like the naivety of Genesis early stuff. There's an honesty that comes across probably due to not much interference from the record label. I think they were a boutique band. Although they were Prog Rock, i tried listening to other Prog Rock bands and i'm not fascinated by them as i am with Genesis. The music alone is mindblowingly brilliant because they were serving their quirky songs. Even the stage act was honest. They were boring on stage so Peter Gabriel would take that as a challenge to keep people in their seats and combat his shyness. But i get that you either obsess over this band or they leave you cold. For me, the fact that they were in their early 20's making this music is staggering.

And I never put so much emphasis on being able to relate - Bowie seemed to me an extraterrestrial as a kid and all the better for it! (But then, I'm a yank, so..different perspective?).
