Abacab was pretty badass.

Love Peter Gabriel.

It’s just Collin’s used the MTV platform to shit on an American president.

Dropping it.

Peter Gabriel is as far left as one can get- or at least he was.

And of course Chester came to Genesis from Zappa.

If you look into it, he had nothing to do with that. The record company hired a popular British puppet outfit to do the video. Phil Collins only agreed, because he saw the puppet caricature of himself, and like it. The politics of it were created by the puppet company, Spitting Image. No one from Genesis had any input on it.

You are rather blunt and acerbic but witty at times

If we flush artists of all endeavors who are lefties we’d be pretty limited in entertainment or museum tours

Artistry and ideological profundity seem inescapably divergent

Creative people tend to be emotive and not facts digging oriented not to mention pressure from peers and agents and publicists and studio execs and so on
