More about Genesis:

Genesis has sold over 130 million albums. It is one of a small group of elite British bands who have achieved global success and sustained it with a loyal fan base. Genesis was formed in 1966 by Tony Banks, Peter Gabriel, Mike Rutherford and Anthony Phillips, while still at school, but its most successful incarnation was the late 70s early 80s line-up of Phil Collins taking on lead vocals and sharing song writing with Rutherford and Banks. The Duke album topped the UK charts in 1980 with the hit single, Turn It On Again monopolizing the airwaves. In 1987, Genesis played sold out stadium shows across the globe, including four consecutive at Wembley Stadium.
