This month in 1986, Genesis were at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with "Invisible Touch", the first of five top-5 singles from the album of the same name. Did you know they were knocked off the top spot the following week by none other than @itspetergabriel with "Sledgehammer"?
“Genesis Live”, the first live album from Genesis, was released #OnThisDay in 1973. Recorded earlier that year in Leicester and Manchester during the “Foxtrot” tour, the live album reached the top 10 in the UK - the band’s first album to do so. 🔊: lnkfi.re/GenesisLive
The 2025 remaster of "In the Cage", from The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is available on all streaming platforms now. Listen: genesis.lnk.to/ITC
