I'm not counting "Behind The Lines" since that was a very Genesis sounding song that Phil decided to cover on his first album for whatever reason. Off the top of my head, I can think of two:

"No Reply At All" sounds like it was actually made for Hello, I Must Be Going! since that album was pretty heavy on the horn section and this track was, too.

Second is "In Too Deep" because, well, just listen to it. That has "Phil solo track" all over it.

I'm not perse a fan of Bruce Hornsby, but what peaked my interest in this particular record is the roster of Jazz musicians playing on this record (including Pat Metheny and Branford Marsalis). However, Phil Collins is credited on the record with various percussions and backing vocals on a good amount of the tracks.

Does anyone know the background of these sessions and especially Phil's involvement? Both because it suggests that Phil played together with a roster of jazz musicians (especially Pat is one of the greatest of his generation) but also because I have difficulties "hearing" Phil in this nor understanding why he was invited given that he doesn't contribute his drumming and is not even very distinctly present (I doubt many listeners would even know he was on there)?

Mine:

1. “Inside and Out” should have been on Wind & Wuthering instead of “Your Own Special Way”.

2. The Lamb… is great music spoilt by a ridiculous, impenetrable story (albeit with some good songs which work in isolation). An instrumental mix would be awesome.

3. Genesis should have done more instrumentals – especially during the 4-piece era.

4. “The Dividing Line” is a good song.

5. Hackett leaving was more disastrous than Gabriel leaving.

Don’t shoot me. What are yours?

Similar with the Turn It On Again Tour, a few tracks were rehearsed and dropped, namely Abacab and Jesus He Knows Me but does anyone else feel the BIGGEST missed opportunity HAD to be not performing the closing section of THE MUSICAL BOX!!!! Like Phil was(is) LITERALLY an old man now, it would have been soooo fitting for the song just as, I feel, he reached MAX creepy levels for Mama! Who would've cared if it was transposed down, it would have LITERALLY been an old man singing in the character of this old man! Anyone else out there agree? What do you feel were missed opportunities from TLD?

When do you think he will end touring? Will he do an ATOTT tour for its 50th anniversary or not? Or rather one big genesis revisited best of tour? I've always asked myself that

I’ve heard that during their 2006 rehearsals for the next year’s Turn It On Again tour, Genesis practiced Abacab, That’s All, and Jesus He Knows Me. I know there was also plenty of footage recorded for the When In Rome documentary during these rehearsals. Unfortunately, there haven’t really been any releases of these songs being rehearsed specifically. Do you think it’s possible there is footage or audio out there of these three songs that could be released (whether as bootlegs or else) at any point in the future? (because i would love so much to hear 2007 phil singing that’s all oh my god)
