Sounds like a big box of evil to me...

Some of the greatest albums ever made by 6 of the greatest ever writers/musicians this country ever saw. I remember the days when they were winning the NME fan polls, hands down. And to all those who jump on the "I hate Phil Collins/Genesis" bandwagon ... think on; these masterpieces were made a decade before our Uncle Phil had his solo success. Before that he was a class drummer. Listen to the Lamb Lies Down. As good as any Floyd album yet they get covered in glory all the time. Broaden your mind folks and give it a whirl. I think many would be surprised at what they hear.
