From schoolboy band to sold out stadium tours and worldwide album sales of over 100 million, Genesis were one of the defining progressive rock bands of the seventies, playing a huge part in shaping the genre. Over a career spanning forty years from formation to the world reunion tour of 2007, they developed and adapted through many changes, some of which polarised their existing fans but drew countless new ones. While Foxtrot and The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway helped define progressive rock, it was the three-piece line up of Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Phil Collins that became the real hit-makers, with albums like Invisible Touch and We Can't Dance and massive hit singles like 'No Son of Mine' and 'Land of Confusion'.
 
Fifteen studio and six live albums later, including four consecutive US top tens, fans still live in hope of yet another reunion tour which, so far, hasn't entirely been ruled out. Taking the reader on a journey through their entire catalogue, this book gives as much weight to the early, formative progressive rock albums as it does to the massive hits of the 80s and 90s, providing the most complete analysis of the band's music yet written.
