Expertise
I`ve collected many books and music (alot of bootleg stuff) from Genesis, as well as about 30 different bands. As well as the Beatles, Genesis has always been a favorite of mine. Please ask my anything you can think of concerning the band.
Experience
I started listening to Genesis back in the mid 70's from my brother, who is 11 years older than I. In the 80's, when I was in my teens, I listened to the current music at the time, but I always enjoyed my classic prog-rock upbringing. During the 90's and this decade, my favorite music has remained my earliest.
