A rare vote for Collins-era Genesis from me. A strong late-period highlight.

Both are awful (except the first 90 seconds of Endless Dream.)

always liked Endless Dream and Talk as a whole. It's a poppy proggy affair, very nicely produced and gave the Victory music label a nice boost until ELP eventually brought it down with ITHS.
I have virtually zero interest in Genesis studio albums post Duke. I still don't own 'Genesis', IT or WCD. They all have some good tracks but mosytly don't care and the 80's ones are made worse by having the very typical plastic production style of the time which I dislike. The Way We Walk 'The Longs' does have more acceptable live versions of their best 80's and 90's stuff. Play HBTS and Domino loud and the floor rocks! Much more fun than their anaemic studio efforts.

^ Indeed I mostly listen to the live versions of the 80's Genesis songs, if they exist. They sound more alive, less controled, less manufactured. Specially with the drums.

I voted for "Home by the Sea/Second Home by the Sea" only because I've never liked that little "televangelist" bit that Trevor Rabin throws in just because he knew he could get away with it! The rest of "Endless Dream" is flawless.

We're prog fans so this probably doesn't mean much but the self titled Genesis album sold over 4 million copies and Talk sold maybe 200,000 (if that). Both US sales.

I enjoyed Genesis much more than I did TALK, and even as songs, Home by the Sea is better

HbtS for purely nostalgic reasons and I enjoy both, although I have to admit I have neither of these pieces in my collection these days...

Well we know that Genesis were beginning to shift serious quantities at that time partly because of Phil Collins raised profile I imagine. It seems that Yes and ELP between them managed to push Victory Music over the edge of the cliff in 1994.  |

I decided to check out some of Endless Dream a little earlier (bits and pieces scanning though the track), but it is too AOR for my tastes. Not my cup of tea. That is a good Genesis track.

Phil Collins' awful 1980s singing is probably the only factor in my decision to vote for Endless Dream.
