You're right; for some reason, I get those two reversed in my head.

Duke and Abacab are two albums I have played a lot; love them.

I respect Phil Collins' solo career, but much prefer Genesis.

Peter Gabriel? I think his So album is a masterpiece.

BBC announces new documentary wrote:– Genesis: Together and Apart

Today, the BBC has announced a new feature length documentary on Genesis, that will include contributions from Peter.

From their first beginnings as a band of songwriters in the late 1960s to its final incarnation as a rock giant in the 1990s – via full-blown theatrical progressive rock in the mid-1970s and the subtler jazzy pop of the early 1980s – Genesis could perplex and enrage the die-hards, whilst exciting and exhilarating the newer disciples.

Made with the full co-operation of Genesis, the film reunites all original members of the band – Tony Banks, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Steve Hackett, Mike Rutherford – together for the first time since 1975.

The film recounts an extraordinary musical story, exploring the band’s songwriting as well as emotional highs and lows, alongside previously unseen archive material and rare performance footage across their entire career

Transmission date still to be confirmed

Am I correct in thinking the blurb is mistaken about the line-up being the original one?

Steve and Phil aren't 'original members', but certainly that lineup was the most significant.

There are many tracks from previous that I think are better than tracks on So. But the whole album as a unit...superb.
And what a freaking amazing tour it was.

Technical Note: Stunning video and audio. Whereas, heretofore, Gabriel-era Genesis footage has been marked by dark, nigh-unwatchable visuals and wonky sonics, this is revelatory.
