Rhino completes its upgrade of Genesis' catalog with a third and final
7-CD/6-DVD box spotlighting the beginning of their career with CD/DVD editions
of five albums expanded with bonus audio & video, 5.1 mixes and more, plus and
exclusive rarities CD & DVD.
In the beginning, Genesis began its epic journey towards becoming one of the
top-selling recording acts of all time with a series of groundbreaking
progressive rock albums that featured a pre-solo career Peter Gabriel as lead
singer. Produced by founding members Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford along with
Phil Collins—who joined in ’71—GENESIS: 1970-1975 collects five of the group’s
studio albums from their seminal Gabriel-fronted era, presenting them as
expanded CD/DVD editions featuring 5.1 and Surround Sound mixes, rare and
previously unissued bonus audio and video, new interviews and more. The 7-CD,
6-DVD box, which also includes the exclusive CD/DVD Extras: 1970-1975,
spotlights: Trespass, Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot, Selling England By The Pound and
the double album The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. Following Genesis’ hugely
successful 2007 40th anniversary reunion tour featuring Collins, Banks, and
Rutherford onstage together for the first time in 15 years, Rhino’s third in a
trilogy of box sets exploring the band’s extraordinary catalog is an ideal way
to rediscover their earliest masterpieces.
"...Rhino saved the best for last. It's as if these recordings languished for three decades while waiting to flower under the sonic possibilities of 5.1 surround, which opens up the complex arrangements - especially during musical call-and-response segments that employ center and rear channels." - Greg Cahill, The Absolute Sound January 2008, Issue 189
"Countless classical motifs inform the music. Songs resonate with spiritual and emotional power, shifting seemlessly between frolicking fun and hellish personal delimmas... All said, the Genesis box sets add up to one of the best reissue projects in the rock canon. They stand as sonic love letters to fans of a band that has over the years played everything from experimental prog to saccharine pop." - Greg Cahill, The Absolute Sound January 2008, Issue 189
