    The Genesis era during which Collins took over from Gabriel is phenomenally good. Where many fans feared the end of the band, Genesis actually took steps forwards, while Gabriel went on to make very inventive solo projects. If this isn't a win-win situation, I don't know anymore....

      Very true ! People use to consider Genesis as being divided in two periods : the Gabriel era and the Collins era, but I think Steve Hackett's contribution is incredibly underrated. After his departure, Genesis made good songs, but A Trick of the Tail and Wind and Wuthering are in my opinion closest to the masterpieces that preceded them than to the more commercially successful Genesis. I don't know if you've heard about The Musical Box, the official Genesis tribute band (I just saw them in Paris and they're AMAZING) The point is they only play the progressive period, which includes all albums from Trespass to Wind and Wuthering. And the've been touring since 25 years ^^ !

      @paulcarfantan6688 2 месяца назад

      So true. Also in regards to his voice, it somewhat changed in late 1979 early 1980 by going down one or two octaves and becoming raspier. The perfect song to show this is "Heathaze" from the "Duke" album. He starts off the song softly with his old voice and then when the song builds up, he has the new sandpaper voice that he never had before. His old voice was simply angelic.
      Loved the guy`s look also, that beard. From mid 1976 to late 1977, he looked like a young Santa Claus. Awesome beard, lol.

I bought A Trick of the Tail and Wind and Wuthering in the same week and have lost track of the times I have played both start to finish in the past two months. I was always a big fan of their 80s work, but this song is truly special. Such a stellar composition for one, but the performance is simply magical - how it can be sad and uplifting at the same time really speaks to the uniqueness of it...not the mention the talent of Genesis. So, while it's 45 years old, thank you to Phil, Mike, Tony and Steve for having created something so remarkable that it feels new right now.

    Ripples
    Genesis
    Blue girls come in every size
    Some are wise and some otherwise,
    They got pretty blue eyes.
    For an hour a man may change
    For an hour her face looks strange -
    Looks strange, looks strange.
    Marching to the promised land
    Where the honey flows and takes you by the hand,
    Pulls you down on your knees,
    While you're down a pool appears.
    The face in the water looks up,
    And she shakes her head as if to say
    That it's the last time you'll look like today.
    Sail away, away
    Ripples never come back.
    Gone to the other side.
    Sail away, away.
    The face that launched a thousand ships
    Is sinking fast, that happens you know,
    The water gets below.
    Seems not very long ago
    Lovelier she was than any that I know.
    Angels never know it's time
    To close the book and gracefully decline,
    The song has found a tale.
    My, what a jealous pool is she.
    The face in the water looks up
    She shakes her head as if to say
    That the blue girls have all gone away.
    Sail away, away
    Ripples never come back.
    They've gone to the other side.
    Look into the pool,
    Ripples never come back,
    Dive to the bottom and go to the top
    To see where they have gone
    Oh, they've gone to the other side...
    Sail away, away
    Ripples never come back.
    Gone to the other side.
    Look into the pool,
    The ripples never come back, come back,
    Dive to the bottom and go to the top
    To see where they have gone
    They've gone to the other side ~ What a brilliant song. Thank you for the upload.
