      Dvojí kariéra skupiny Genesis představuje unikátní fenomén v hudebním světě. Na počátku sedmdesátých let se kapela stala průkopníkem progresivního rocku, přičemž její vrcholná díla z této doby dodnes inspirují nové generace hudebníků. V osmdesátých letech se Genesis, v redukovaném složení, přeorientovali na sofistikovaný pop, který vyprodával stadiony a stále dominuje mainstreamovým rozhlasovým vlnám. Významné jsou také sólové kariéry členů, jako je Peter Gabriel, který se stal vizionářem na pomezí rocku a avantgardy, a Phil Collins, jenž jako sólový umělec překonal mnohé zapomenuté popové hvězdičky, což některým fanouškům progrocku nikdy neodpustil. Steve Hackett, Tony Banks a Mike Rutherford také dosáhli úspěchů v různých hudebních žánrech. Publikace detailně mapuje tvůrčí růst této originální rockové formace, která se vyhýbala zaškatulkování. Obsahuje informace o vzniku klíčových alb, jako jsou Nursery Cryme, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, Invisible Touch a We Can't Dance, včetně exkluzivních rozhovorů s protagonisty a žebříčku čtyřiceti nejúspěšnějších písní podle fanoušků. Užívejte si tuto pestrou výpravu ke kořenům britského progresivního rocku!
