Thanks a bunch, Tyrael and Voivod. If I were you Voivod, I'd probably start with Nursery Cryme, the third one of the enclosed list. My fav songs show up as well.

That brilliant piece of guitar is both a Genesis highlight and a reminder of how sadly underused Hackett was during their classic years; how their sound could have profited. He was wise to continue progging on his own accord.

^I couldn't have put it better. I'd only add that Tony Banks is involved for something in the Hackett under-used thing since both have never been friends. I think that Banks never got over former guitarist Anthony Phillips departure, back in the day.

When you put five highly skilled musicians in one band, a clash of the egos is inevitable. I can hardly claim to know the man, but Hackett doesn't seem like the most dominant character in the group to me. As marvellous as those keys can be, Banks taking too much of the forefront is exactly the point. I love Genesis, but with a little less keys, little more guitar, I think they could have been even better.

You strike again mate, they sure could have been better. However the Banks keys being prominent is not as such a bad thing cos it's kinda their trademark and it categorically defines the classic symphonic progressive rock sound that they were meant for. What irritates me is the impression that Hackett have always tried hard to interplay and highlight Banks soaring keys, but on the other hand, I feel that Banks never seemed to care in reciprocating. So yes, like it or not, Hackett is a prominent figure when it comes to the songwriting. His actual solo career just amply proves it.

Of course, Genesis were one of the biggest keyboard-centered prog groups after all. I wouldn't actually like to hear Banks' playing less, but I would like to hear Hackett's more. Your knowledge on the band is proven once again, interplay between keys and guitar is exactly the thing that's perhaps 'missing' in their sound.

Agreed. Hackett is probably my favourite prog guitarist and I would have liked his playing to have been a bit more prominent in Genesis' sound.

The guitar solo in Every Day is so damn good.

Finally got around to this, Voyage feels more like an album to me but this is more varied.
