Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Yes I did mean Eloy; were they still going in the 80s?

Recording 1971-2019 according to Allmusic. I knew them from, I think, 1980's "Colours" onwards and may have "Planets" in a cupboard. Never realised they went back so far.

I had a friend who bought their entire back catalogue from a shop in, I think Holland, in about 1979. The shop owner was both delighted and baffled I believe.

£180 to watch Phil Collins bumble about a bit for an hour or so?!

Fair puts my Murrayfield season ticket into (positive) perspective. And at least there’s an outside chance the Scottish rugby team might improve with time and experience.....

I think i'd rather go and watch a tribute band who at least look the part rather than 70 year olds pretending they are young.

I think I've already mentioned The Musical Box? Sufficiently good costumes-and-all early Genesis covers band that Hackett sat in for an encore and Gabriel took his kids so they could see what he used to be like?

How early? Much of my favourite Genesis isn’t *that* early. Trick of the tail isn’t a bad album and Wind and Withering is (mostly) a good one.
