Genesis - 1973 2007 Live

Review by Gelu Florea

Genesis - 1973-2007 Live: A Journey Through Time and Sound If you’re a Genesis fan—or even just someone who enjoys rock music with layers, drama, and heart—you’ll want to dive into 1973-2007 Live. Released in 2009, this double-disc album captures the band’s evolution from prog-rock pioneers to chart-topping pop icons. It’s like flipping through an old photo album where every track tells its own story. The genres here are all over the place—prog rock, art rock, pop rock—but that’s what makes it so damn fun. With credits ranging from Tony Banks’ wizardry on keyboards to Phil Collins’ unmistakable vocals, this live collection feels like a victory lap for one of Britain’s most iconic bands. And hey, let’s not forget Peter Gabriel’s flute or Bill Bruford’s drumming—they bring some serious nostalgia vibes. Now, I gotta talk about two tracks that stuck with me because they’re just that good: “The Musical Box” and “Invisible Touch.” “The Musical Box” is pure magic. Listening to it feels like stepping into a time machine set for the early ‘70s when Genesis was still pushing boundaries with their storytelling. The closing section? Absolutely killer. You can hear how tight the band was back then, weaving together intricate melodies and rhythms without missing a beat. It’s the kind of song that reminds you why people fell in love with progressive rock in the first place—it’s ambitious, emotional, and kinda weird in the best way possible. Then there’s “Invisible Touch,” which couldn’t be more different. This track screams '80s pop perfection. It’s catchy as hell, with hooks sharp enough to cut glass. Hearing it performed live gives it new life; Phil Collins’ voice has this raw energy that studio versions sometimes lack. Plus, watching Mike Rutherford shred on guitar adds another layer of awesomeness. Honestly, if this doesn’t get your foot tapping, check your pulse. What strikes me most about this album is how well it balances Genesis’ two identities—the experimental prog-rockers and the polished pop stars. Tracks like “Supper’s Ready” show off their epic side, while songs like “Land of Confusion” remind us why they dominated radio playlists worldwide. But here’s the thing: listening to 1973-2007 Live isn’t just about reliving hits—it’s about appreciating how far Genesis came. From Peter Gabriel’s theatrical antics to Phil Collins’ smooth crooning, the band reinvented itself multiple times without losing sight of what made them special. Oh, and one last random thought: whoever decided to include both “Dance on a Volcano” and “I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)” deserves a medal. Those tracks slap hard. So yeah, whether you’re a die-hard fan or just curious, give this album a spin. Just don’t blame me if you end up Googling vintage Genesis tour footage at 2 AM. Trust me, it happens.

About Genesis

ladda ner album Genesis - 1973 2007 Live

Formed at Charterhouse School, Godalming, Surrey, South East England, UK in 1967, Genesis are among the top 30 highest-selling recording artists of all time. Their early work is characterized by complex song structures, elaborate instrumentation and the theatrical antics of founder member and vocalist , who left the band August 15, 1975. Unable to find a suitable replacement, it was drummer who assumed lead vocal duties. This change, as well as the departure of guitarist , two years later, saw the remaining three members (Phil Collins, keyboardist and bassist/guitarist ) move into more accessible pop-based music. This change in style resulted in a huge growth in Genesis' popularity throughout the 1980s and early 1990s. In 1996 Phil Collins left to concentrate on his solo work and other projects, leaving erstwhile bandmates Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks to forge ahead with new recruit; vocalist . This line-up lasted for one album only (1997's Calling All Stations) and Genesis soon found itself on hiatus after the poor performance and critical reaction of the new album. In 2006 after years of speculation Phil Collins, Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford reformed Genesis for the successful Turn It On Again tour. A reunion involving ex-members Peter Gabriel and Steve Hackett remains much talked-about and unrealised. Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2010 (performer).
