The 3x3 Album......

What is your thought about the 3x3 album? I have grown very fond of the extra tracks Genesis would provide some "B" sides that have become quite popular. Since we have not had any new original music in such a long time, the "B" sides provide for some great music. Some Genesis fans treat them as inferior. It was never considered by the band as inferior music. It just did not fit in within an album's concept or conceptually it was too complicated to fit in the time constraints of vinyl. Either way, it's Genesis and we love the extra tracks as much as we love the albums!

Shhhhh..... listen to the birth of Los Endos.....

It's Yourself. A very psychedelic tune. (In my opinion....very psychedelic) The magic of the song is the Sitar. It provides very strange sounds that make me crave for the 60's and 70's. I can see why this sound was cut, while many fans do not believe it should have been. If you listen closely enough, you can hear a bit of Los Endos in the song. The intro was reused from a small portion of It's Yourself.

Facebook and Blog starting to develop.

Well, I would have like to have more stories and collections for the archive. But we are slowly growing. The FB page is nearing 100 Friends. The Blog is beginning to develop and archive the history. So far 600 people have visited the blog. People have contributed to each which is so fun for me as a fan of Genesis. I am hoping to have a weekend to go back and go through so many great contributions and posts. Thanks for your support!

Have that talk while breaking into a home.....

Ah Home By The Sea....a simple burglary botched by Ghosts. Is it really botched? Or just a story to be told? This is the magical imagery of Genesis. Some fans want to believe it was left behind in 1974. But this song has all the imagination of any Genesis song. Phil sings with emotion and each change in his voice represents a change in the story. You won't get away through the rest of your days.....SIT DOWN!   Let us relive our lives.....just magic. A signature piece from a time when the band reenergized the music.

And, think about how music inspires art....love this video

Picture Archive Added To Positively Genesis

What if you had a place to see the concert posters, pictures by years, and album artwork? This is the next phase of Positively Genesis. I had the idea from going to all of the fan sites. I just see so many new pics and media files every day. I began to want them to be cataloged for fans to enjoy. After giving it some thought, I figured it would be fun to take this project on for the website. Fans will contribute and I will begin to collect the history of Genesis through print.

A link is provide on the home page for fans to enjoy. I will continue to post my progress on the Facebook page to remind fans of the continuing progress.

Little Nemo

Little Nemo is a fictional character created by American cartoonist Winsor McCay. Nemo was originally the protagonist of the comic strip Little Nemo in Slumberland. The full-page weekly strip depicted Nemo having fantastic dreams that were interrupted by his awakening in the final panel. The strip is considered McCay's masterpiece for its experiments with the form of the comics page, its use of color, its timing and pacing, the size and shape of its panels, perspective, architectural and other detail

This comic strip was the inspiration for Scenes From a Summer Nights Dream by Genesis.

One of the best songs to introduce your kids to. Great for bedtime....

40 years of SNL and No Genesis

I watched the Saturday Night Live this Sunday and enjoyed the music played throughout the show. While watching the portion of the show that was dedicated to the 40 years of music, I began to wonder why Genesis never appeared on SNL. Especially during the early years. Other British groups and solo acts appeared throughout the years. Why not Genesis. It could be as simple as the schedules never matched or both parties never connected. However, I cant help but wonder how cool a Genesis appearance would have been for the group. After all, they appeared on Mike Douglas, why not SNL
