Genesis- Genesis
Analogue Productions (Atlantic Series) Celebrating the 75th Anniversary of Atlantic Records! Genesis' self-titled Grammy-nominated album Featuring 'Mama,' 'That's All' and 'Second Home By The Sea' 180-gram 45 RPM double LP Pressed at Quality Record Pressings Gatefold old-style 'tip-on' jacket by Stoughton Printing In the spring of 1983, members of Genesis reconvened at their studio, named The Farm in Chiddingfold, Surrey, to start work on a new studio album, their first since Abacab (1981). Genesis became their first album written, recorded, and mixed in it's entirety at the studio room; previously they had to write in an adjoining space. Having the group work in their own space without the additional pressure of booking studio time and fees resulted in a more relaxed environment. They were joined by engineer Hugh Padgham, who had also worked on Abacab, AllMusic writes: 'Moments of Genesis are as spooky and arty as those on Abacab - in particular, there's the tortured howl of 'Mama,' uncannily reminiscent of Phil Collins' Face Value, and the two-part 'Second Home by the Sea' - but this eponymous 1983 album is indeed a rebirth, as so many self-titled albums delivered in the thick of a band's career often are.... Anybody who paid attention to 'Misunderstanding' and 'No Reply at All' could tell that this was a good pop band, primarily thanks to the rapidly escalating confidence of Phil Collins, but Genesis illustrates just how good they could be, by balancing such sleek, pulsating pop tunes as 'That's All' with a newfound touch for aching ballads, as on 'Taking It All Too Hard.' AllMusic reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine gives the album 4.5 Stars. For fans who appreciate the evolution of the band's music over the years, owning this album is important as it represents a distinctive phase in their career. This is the definitive deluxe 45 RPM 2LP Analogue Productions (Atlantic Series) reissue of the classic Genesis. A classic for all true Genesis fans! Tracklist: 0 Side 1 1 1. Mama 2 2.
