The trio -- the band's classic line-up

Sorry, no - the band's classic lineup had Peter Gabriel on lead vocals and Steve Hackett on guitar. As a former kid who used to carefully draw the Genesis logo from "Lamb Lies Down" on my middle school desktop, I know.

Yep. “Wind and Wuthering” was the last album with Steve Hackett, and the last “real” Genesis album IMHO. They went sort of bubble gum after that.

A friend of mine described it as “Earth, Wind and Phil.”

I’m not one of those who believes Genesis died when Gabriel left.

A Trick of the Tail is still my favorite, with The Lamb a close second.

But Duke had some great songs on it (not the two songs that were played on the radio constantly, but the rest of the album was great)
