Genesis: The Musical Box

Drawing on rare concert films, and penetrating interviews with the band and the critics, this is the definitive review of Genesis. Featuring extensive archive film, with performance footage from Dallas, London and Liverpool, the key Genesis works from the halcyon days with Peter Gabriel through to the massive commercial successes from the Phil Collins era are re-visited and critically assessed.

My take

A lovingly detailed deep dive into Genesis's evolution across decades, packed with rare concert footage and insider perspectives. Perfect for music obsessives and anyone curious about how a band transforms from progressive experimentalism into stadium-filling spectacle.
