A Trick of the Tail and Wind and Wuthering were great albums. Gabriel was (and is) very talented, but Collins could also sing the back catalog pretty well (like on the live album Seconds Out).

I agree. And, Selling England by the Pound.

I liked Trick of the Tail when it came out, but it stopped sounding good when I stopped smoking weed. The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, however, remains a classic.

I love the story about the search for Gabriel's replacement. I'm sure you know it. They auditioned hundreds of people only to eventually realize the drummer Phil Collins was probably best at doing it.

Yes they were. "Blood on the Rooftops" is fantastic.

I just bought the book, I didn't realize just what a huge fan of The Who he is, he worshipped Moonie.
