9. ...And Then There Were Three... (1978) Rating: 3.5/5 Steve Hackett leaves. The band is now a trio. The songs get shorter. The prog epics disappear, replaced by radio-friendly structures. "Follow You Follow Me" was their first real hit. Purists cried betrayal; the band cried all the way to the bank.
10. Duke (1980) Rating: 4/5 The bridge between two worlds. Side one (on vinyl) features a hidden suite that harkens back to the old days, but the production is pure 80s sheen. "Misunderstanding" and "Turn It On Again" are pop perfection. This is the best "Pop Genesis" album.
**11. Abacab (1981

Greetings, fellow travelers of the sonic highway. genesis discography blogspot
Welcome back to the archives. Today, we are tackling the monolith. The mountain. The beast with two backs (and eventually, a bald one). We are diving deep into the discography of Genesis.
Whether you are a purist who believes the band ceased to exist the moment Peter Gabriel flew the coop in 1975, or a populist who believes Abacab is the height of songwriting sophistication, there is no denying the sheer evolutionary trajectory of this band. They went from the surreal, costumed theater of art-rock to the polished, stadium-shaking anthems of the MTV era.
I have spent the last week remastering my vinyl rips (removed clicks and pops, but kept the warmth) to compile this guide. This is not just a list of albums; it is a timeline of a band that refused to die, even when their lead singers kept leaving. A good blog will have been updated in the last three years
