Collections: Genesis pt.1: the singles

[@jesseemullen]

Wow! Thanks for doing this series. And thank you for getting me into prog. Much appreciated sir

[@Lazerrus]

Awesome collection Dereck. Isn't it just so incredible that we can share our love and collection of this band together. I just think it's the coolest thing. This is one of the things about the VC that still amazes me. Love your 3x3 pic disc! Yep you have quite a few I don't. Yet anyway hahahahaha. Thank you so much for sharing my friend!

I have seen many a Genesis record through my cousin in NY. He just sold half his Gabriel and 75% of his Genesis collection for upwards of $20.000 to a friend of his. They both have collected Crimson, Gabriel and Genesis for over 25 years. You are right about the early picture covers. They sell for big money because they are hard to come by. Did you show Paperlate? I have one UK copy with a pic cover in fair condition. You can have it if you want it Dereck. Thanks for sharing these~ Rob/Boston

I regret I never gave Genesis much attention earlier on. You've turned me onto some great Genesis records over the years.

Great video Dereck !! The music of Genesis has played a very important part of my life. It 's made me the person that I am. They are my all time fav band and their music means the world to me. It's great to see so much Genesis love here in the VC. You have a great Genesis collection and I look foward to seeing more. I will post a video of my Genesis concert programs to tie into the latest posts of Genesis vids. Take care buddy !!

Fantastic collection, man. Great little tidbits of information about the B-sides too.

[@dwc311]

@dereckvon It appears to have been released in France, Australasia and Holland. DERECK are you aware of the website "A Genesis Discography"? Its a great place that showcases everything Genesis has ever put out and all the information about each specific release. Probably something you might wanna check out if you have not already.

Great video..absolutely fascinating, especially seeing that copy of 'Follow You..' with 'Inside and Out' on the b-side - a 3 piece era single with a 4 piece flip side.

[@dereckvon]

@Lazerrus I had to step up to the plate if you know what I mean. I really was long overdue getting to this central part of my collection. It is great sharing this with you and the rest of the VC. More to come.

[@dereckvon]

@Paneeks1960 Thanks Rob. Indeed I will take that pic sleeve as mine is without.

[@365Avalon]

Great collection. I'm a big Genesis.Gabriel & Hackett fan myself. It's such a shame they're gone.

[@dereckvon]

@Thumpingjoker82 Such great music!

[@Sammeep02]

Genesis r the best!!!

[@twostikks1]

Wow - I LOVE that live "Turn It On Again" Single (great cover!)

[@dereckvon]

@stephievon A bit run down, been doing a lot. I'll take care. Thanks for noticing.

[@Thumpingjoker82]

Trick of the tail is in heavy rotation right now for me. Also, Follow you follow me and misunderstanding are two of my faviorite all time songs from Genesis.

[@john4592]

Great collection.

[@dereckvon]

@strictlysega If there is a single for Home By The Sea I need to find it! Regarding the holes, US singles have traditionally been made this way and some European countries do as well. Enjoy going through those singles!

[@dereckvon]

@katonwdepena So cool!

[@dereckvon]

Excellent!

[@twostikks1]

Dereck ... whoa, you've got some nice stuff! I actually like your video more than Lazerus's, you give more info than he did. As for "Open Door" and "Evidence Of Autumn", they're both on the 2nd Archive Box set -- but they're ALSO on the US version of "Three Sides Live" (of course, in the UK, they WERE non-LP tracks!). I always enjoyed getting those non-album B-sides when they came out, starting with "It's Yourself" (I have that Italian single, too!) Peace, Bud!

[@dereckvon]

@kingsdrummer Thanks a bunch and let's see those programs please!

[@bluestate69]

"ripples" and "entangled" always seemed to be companion pieces to me. they are similar.

[@strictlysega]

wasnt there a single of home by the sea?.. i dont know why people say if u dont get into early but like them post then there were three then u commited some form of sacrilidge, i like what you said " you like what you like". 2 two more things,, whats the deal with the big holes in your singles,, (im an aussie and none of our singles have those big holes) and finally thank you for this vid,, i havent gone through my old 7 inches in AGES.. which ill deffintly be doing now. tHank you

[@marguskiis7711]

Very interesting covers.

[@dereckvon]

@cosmicrider287 Much appreciated!

[@dereckvon]

Hadn't thought of that. Nice.

[@giggabyt78]

you know you look a bit like Chester Thompson

[@dereckvon]

giggabyt78 I don't think so.
