SolidSnake 2,791 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Before ARTPOP, before Bjork this was considered to be extremely artful and some would say pretentious music. Prog Rock was known for its extremely technical skill to pull off and its incredibly long songs. Selling England by the Pound is considered to be one of the best prog rock albums ever created and is generally consider to be Genesis's best album. This is considered the best lineup of the band with Peter Gabriel on vocals (who you may know for the songs "Big Time" or "Sledgehamer"), Phil Collins on drums (who would later take over the lead singer position and you may know him for the Disney movie soundtrack for Tarzan), keyboardist Tony Banks, bassist and guitarist Mike Rutherford, and guitarist Steve Hackett. I am not sure how many people want to participate but If you want to just comment here and then PM your ratings for each song with a short review describing the song even if you rate it low.. I will try to keep bumping and updating this thread through the next week. It will end next Thursday.(maybe earlier, we are kinda laid back here) I will now tag people who said they were interested or I think they would be ( @Rumours1977 @That J @ARPiT @ryanripley @KING @calmar @Derpplause ) We are rating these on a 10 star scale and you can use one 11. Im just copying Rumours yall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I listen to the version you posted with the “new stereo mix” or the version on Spotify with the original mixing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

calmar 21,351 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 i don't think I can listen to it for a little while (currently driving across the country which means most of the time is driving or asleep, and I don't have Spotify premium) - but I will try to as soon as I can. What is the due date for the rates? 俺の勝利は揺るぎない Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
