The special has the Classic Rock logo on the front, but features stuff from both mags. I gather the "40 best" list is from Prog readers. It puts Robbery at 33, ahead of Duchess and Fading Lights among others. Duchess is about 100 zillion times better than Robbery, at a conservative estimate. So no, they don't "know their stuff". Or at least, they do know some stuff but it's stuff that's stupid and wrong.

RAAB is a great song. Prog readers do know their stuff. Duchess and FL are clearly great too . In way it's wrong to judge one song against another when it gets gets that standard but also great fun . However RAAB IS better than both of those songs . I scientifically and objectively prooved that RAAB is better than both those songs a long time ago by listening to them in a scientific and objective way. And that's not at all stupid or wrong. So you you need to like it more or you will find yourself all wrong and confused. 😃😃😃

Another one of those absurdly expensive Genesis magazine specials is out, this time from Classic Rock. The usual collection of old articles and interviews complete with poor proofing, terrible overbaked writing and standard factual errors. Plus in this case, the "40 Greatest Genesis Songs" as nominated by the readers of Prog Magazine, leading to some ridiculous choices such as RA&B but which will please many here.

And how do I know all this? Because, sucker that I am, I obviously bought the damn thing. More money than sense, me.

Are you talking about Classic Rock magazine or Prog magazine. ? If the readers have chosen RA&B , then they know their stuff.

Anyway am looking forward to seeing them in April.

I wish all families well. Hope Nic would side with neither and side with both as most kids do. Sure PCs wife would want the tour to go ahead , it will generate a load of cash. Also a tremendous opportunity for Nic, any mother objecting to that would be spiteful in the extreme. Surely she would be all in favour . I don't know the people and tend to avoid the gossip stuff but as it's being discussed here I have little time for very wealthy people suing and causing greater heartbreak to get even more money. She has more money than anyone needs, if she wants love then just take it and get on with life. Money is a lot less important than love. Cliché but true.

Lots of stuff about the public persona of Phil I have disliked but I don't know him but he remains my " would most like to meet" person. I'm certain he pays more attention to the negative press he receives than he should, when those who dislike him probably give very little thought to him There are however millions who do give great deal of thought to him. Those people are the ones he has given great pleasure to through his talent and in so doing has improved their lives. I feel my life richer for the love of Genesis music, though much much poorer financially!! See what I mean?

You think? I can't see these shows getting the go ahead until at least the summer next year with dates pencilled in for the end of the year.

Unless this government changes it's approach or a tried and tested vaccine is in place, the3se shows will not happen.

Quote from MOODYBLUE

Of course it will happen. Really looking forward to it.

Quote from Schrottrocker

Could you please be so kind to quote the part of the article that makes that claim about Genesis rehearsing? I tried to find it, honestly I could not make myself read the full article - this is exactly that yellow press bullcrap I avoid like the plague. I would not be surprised if everything they say is made up.

They must be rehearsing because they're touring in six months.

Not sure .Good poser. Spectral Mornings probably .It had that Genesis mid seventies stamp though nothing really sounds quite like Genesis apart from Genesis. So we will have some very individual responses here I"m sure.

Get divorced. Get £25 million . Re unite and get divorced again. One way of making money I suppose

And of course I believe everything I read in the newspapers!!! . Hope Mrs Farmer doesn't try it. I could be our of pocket 25 quid.

Just Suppers Ready would do.
