The Friday Canon: GENESIS FAMILY TREE



GEN-O-FACTS:
- Mike Rutherford invented the prog atom! Then he got bored of Physics (including LASERS) after watching the film Grease and decided to sing about fixing cars instead.
- The singer from Stiltskin replaced Phil Collins in 1997, but then they realised he was rubbish and Phil came back!
- Phil Collins dumped his second wife by fax!
- Peter Gabriel liked dressing up as Weed out of Bill & Ben to combat his stage fright! He also sang on the Babe 2: Pig In The City soundtrack.

The hoary old members of Genesis have had 64 UK Top 40 hits between them! That means you the reader get 21 TICKS to dish out between all of the songs below.

That was his argument. Well, the bit of his argument not comprised of Phil Collins being the Patron Saint of Borth, anyway but I still think it can't compare to the ridiculous METAL bit somewhere in the middle of Salisbury Hill, underneath all the plinky-wibble stuff.

i only have a vague idea in my head of how solsbury hill goes, also it is morphing into "ring out solstice bells" by jethro tull (this is what happens when you buy CHEAP xmo compilations ;))

No! Bad! The excuse for a million gated-reverb drum tracks to be released in the late 80s and early 90s. Horrible, horrible.
