3 stars With the exception of "Invisible Touch", I wouldn't recommend ANY Genesis albums after 1978's "And Then There Were Three."

Invisible Touch is a mixed bag, split 50/50 between good songs, on the one hand, and Phil Collins-style garbage on the other. Land of Confusion is fun and upbeat; Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, though arguably ruined by overexposure in a beer commmerical, is emotional and intriguing. The epic Domino and the instrumental The Brazilian are also great tracks with an exotic feel. But the rest is garbage, tracks you won't want to rip to your ipod. For the uninitiated, Genesis was a mighty band up to 1978.

Indeed, according to Amazon sales ranks 70s Genesis albums on average sell much better than their 80s releases. You'll also note that used copies of the 80s releases can be picked up very cheaply - simply because they're of little value.
