Bruford has said he didn't enjoy playing with Genesis. Obviously, he was capable of playing their music, but he did not enjoy just playing another guys drum parts rather than being involved in the creative process.

I think Bruford's brilliance in a band context was on prime display with Crimson. His solo stuff is technically masterful, but I really think he was at his best when having the freedom to play off other great players rather than driving songs himself.
