Give me Sid Barrett Pink Floyd, and especially give me pre-Lamb Peter Gabriel Genesis. Rush does nothing for me. THIS is the album I keep coming back to 50+ years later:
IMO, I place Genesis's
up there with Rush's
Released at about the same time (1979-80). (Pink Floyd's (Roger Water's solo record) The Wall of course, deserves mention) Brilliant records, not the very best, but pretty damn good.
Initially wanted to talk about Genesis and Phil Collins, but here I am.
Grew up listening to (wish you here 1975ish ) Pink Floyd, (the disco) Kiss and whatever else was on the radio. Music in the early 80's for me were The Police and late 70's Genesis when Phil Collins took over, and The Clash. Throw in Chuck Mangioni, and George Benson, rounds out my youthful listening experience.
