Actually, kind of like genesis until the last album or two. And the
first post-gabriel ablums (Trick of the Tail and Wind And Wuthering) are
great. Now that I think of it, so's Second's Out.

Actually, the second was quite good. I saw that tour (At the Tower
Theater... ah, memories...), and it was *really* good.
I actually don't mind album 3 so much, but that's where it started going
downhill fast.

Along those lines: I've always been a big fan of Steves Howe and Hacket
(there's that genesis thing again...), but GTR has got to be about the
worst album I actually own. I seem to remember a Spinal Tap-esque
review: "GTR. SHT."
I must remember to keep my mailing lists separate. You guys and the
instrumental surf crowd would probably tear each other to pieces before
you realized that you probably have a lot in common. :-)
