Love them or hate them, you have to respect what Genesis did. Mastering quite different music styles takes guts and talent. How many other bands went from Prog to New Wave to Synth Pop to Space Rock and did it successfully? Queen and Rush are two others I can think of who adapted to the music styles of the day and remained successful, but there aren't many who did it as well as Genesis. And don't forget FIVE of the members of Genesis also had successful solo careers. How many other bands can say that?

Afternoon Delight is an amazing song, that they were able to skip past the censors.

[@Meandgenevieve]

Lol, fair enough. I like that song myself. I think i can say that, seeing at the time i was buying albums by Purple, Floyd, Tull, Jefferson Airplane and Procol Harum instead. It's only in the last few years i finally decide i actually liked "Afternoon Delight"

[@Our__Earth]

Ha ha… I have a soft spot for afternoon delight… It’s a great song. But yes I agree that Boston was awesome too.

[@louthewatcher]

I only know Afternoon Delight when I was introduced to it on Anchorman. Great rendition of it!!

yep u r correct

The whiney voiced narrator deserves to be at the top of the list, even though 'he(?) is NOT a member of a band.

[@amoeba1533]

Not only THAT, but I'll wager that HE has never done a creative act, of ANY sort, in his life.

[@alphanova5688]

First of all, by "hated" does THIS nobody mean bands that HE hates HIMSELF PERSONALLY? .. . or that he thinks are hated UNIVERSALLY by people IN GENERAL? He failed to be CLEAR about THAT.

The narrator?? Probably an idiotic pipsqueak (he certainly sounds like one) about 20 years old - no effing idea!! Probably never played an instrument or sung to an audience in his life! There are some of these songs that I don't like, but Genesis should NEVER be mentioned on this list! I played in rock/folk rock/cover bands back in the 70s and 80s, and I can tell you easily which band's songs got people up and dancing and singing along! Although immensely popular (and UNhated), I have never been able to stand the BeeGees, and a good way to reunite them as a band is a couple of bullets. But Genesis on this list - get effing real!!

[@Analysta654]

Genesis? GTFOH. Who put them on the list? Must have been the person Phil Collins was talking about in the song "In the Air tonight"

I look back and I am truly proud and grateful to be a Gen X’er. I got the best that the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s had to offer in both music AND cinema thanks in large part to my Stepdad. Used to sneak down into the basement to listen to my Dads 8-tracks of The Sweet, Kiss and Nazareth among others. He also used to take us to the Drive In every weekend. It was a cheap night out for my young parents cause they could sneak me in and didn’t have to pay for a babysitter. My Mom refused to leave me with other people. So, I got to see some of the greatest horror flicks of the 70’s and 80’s too when they were initially released. RIP Dad. I miss you ❤️

Genesis released 7 albums in the 70s, 6 of them with Gabriel I think. Yes, Genesis turned into a pop band in the 80s, but early Genesis is superb musicianship and anyone who hates that era doesn't understand music.

[@MrBaldypete1]

Peter Gabriel was the man. Look at his solo stuff. Don't get me wrong, Phil Collins is a go-to musician for me (much to the distaste of my mother, who hates him for his anti-Labour comments during the 80's) but you're right. Genesis in the 70's was a completely different band.

[@MrLucky-1]

I partially agree with your comments. Both the Gabriel and Collins versions of the band had great musicians. But I walked out on a live performance of Gabriel/Genesis when they were doing The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. It was like watching and listening to a bad grade school skit.

hi Duncan , Genesis , where a regular at the FARX CLUB southall ,west london , along with bands like Hawkwind , even Led zeppelin , done a gig , there in the 1970s, there was no crap bands playing there , and Genesis was one of the best , live turns ! magic gigs / nights . for all who enjoyed classic rock music , at its roots ,,and was packed every gig ! and I agree totaly with you ! cheers ritchie p.s. your name rings a bell , are you not a Brentford f.c. supporter ?? .

[@barmybee61]

@@birchward hi Ritchie, yes indeed, I am a Bees supporter. The season is ending on a disappointing note after getting to 7th! I think the players are good enough to finish 7th, bur they concede too many goals at crucial times. Also, they have drawn more games than any other team. They need to convert some of those to wins!

[@xanx1234]

@@MrLucky-1 Couldn't agree more, Selling England by the Pound was superb but LLDoB not so good, by the way have you seen/heard Steve Hackett doing a sterling job with early Genesis tracks!

[@djlcruze]

You left out Starland Vocal Band - Afternoon delight. You can take Genesis off the list and put this band on.
