From Genesis To Revelation 1st Album Import

Reader Reviews
Well, considering what style Genesis had starting from the album "Invisible Touch", I don't think there is any room for criticism of this early work. This was one of the albums I got in 1983 after their self-titled album garnished the airwaves with songs like "That's all". I was blown away with how much this band had changed. I love the religious tone of the lyrics and it's heavy folk-orchestral background. Genesis may have gotten more progressive, but the classical influence remained in the latter albums, even if the echoed orchestra wasn't there. Another thing, I actually like Gabriel's voice better here. So, he was between age 17-19 when the sessions were going on, and hadn't quite finished puberty, but I've always found his mature voice difficult to listen to unless he's doing his usual "vocal experiments". He's actually carrying soft folk tunes fluently with a sustained voice, something he would struggle to do today. If you don't like Chad & Jeremy, the old BeeGees, and the old Moody Blues, then you won't like this album. It will sound dated to you. But if you appreciate good music of any genre, then you may want to add this to your collection.
