Genesis are my favorite band, and always have been. I'm a quintessential Genesis fan---I love ALL their music from both of their Gabriel-fronted and Collins-fronted eras. I also love the last studio album they did, 1997's "Calling All Stations", with Ray Wilson at the microphone. I love Genesis, so naturally I am absolutely over the moon that they were finally inducted into the Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame, as they should be.I recently came across a Genesis website, and there was a debate about Genesis "dying&quo t; after their "last true" progressive rock album, 1976's "Wind & Wuthering" . And I came across a comment from a guy named Philip. I'd like to share Philip's comment with you:"I think that all this talk that the band 'died' and RIP after the 'Wind Wuthering' album is utter tosh, and a very simplistic view of the band. There are some fantastic songs on "And Then There Were Three", and every other album after they went down to a three-piece. What were these guys supposed to do, write 10min + epics about greek mythology for the rest of time? Like most people they moved on. Very few, if any, other 'progressiv e' bands evolved in the way that Genesis did, and where there is so much emphasis on the songs, and melodic hooks. For me they are quite unique."Ve ry well said Philip. Long live Genesis!

Jimmy, you were doing fine until you made your ridiculous remark about Journey "blowing away" Genesis in regards to pop music. Are you effing serious??? I'm totally ROTFLMAO!Whatev er, dude. Say what you want about them, but Genesis ARE in the Rock 'N' Roll Hall Of Fame, now and forever, so any criticisms of them now are totally meaningless. And I'm glad.
