Good news if you're a Genesis fan.Billboard reports that the band, on the heels of reissuing its tremendous 1970-1975 output, is pulling together its live albums.
Keyboardist Tony Banks told Billboard the live compilation is "the next logical thing to do."
Expect small-venue tracks from the Peter Gabriel years - the only years if it's up to me - as well as mega stadium shows from the Phil Collins years.
Included in the 10-disc box, set for a Sept. 29 release from Rhino, is five of the group's six live albums, as well as a treasure trove of unreleased booty.
The Salmon's got his eyes on the oft-bootlegged "Live at the Rainbow" show in 1973, shortly after the band released Selling England by the Pound.
The Gabriel years, while commercially disappointing, reeked of brilliance.
As an aside, check out Collins' (second from left) sweet beard and muscle shirt. He already looks like he's mulling pushing Gabriel (center) out of the picture.
Let me wet your gullet with an underrated gem off the band's 1971 LP Nursery Cryme. Only Brits would spell in so goofy a manner.
