Which do you prefer?

 I think he matured considerably as an artist and became a much better singer and writer after he left Genesis!

Gabriel solo work is great with some weak points, Gabriel Genesis is near perfection.

Quoted for near agreement. For me Gabriel Genesis does have weak points, but its strong points are better than Gabriel's strong points, and its weak points are better than Gabriel's weak points too

Totally agree. Gabriel-Genesis is really really near of perfection...the only two song by them I don't like to death are I know what I like and more fool me ( two relatively great song). Some weak points on the lamb too, but not enough to consider it bad.

I agree his singing improved after he left Genesis, but Gabriel era Genesis is soo much better. Genesis might have been a band in function of a charismatic frontman, but he needed them as much as they needed Peter.

Peter's work with Genesis is so magnificent it's almost frightening! It's so damn arty and lofty that it is almost unbelievable and so sureal! Isn't that the effect an artist wants? What more could be said? I dunno, at first I was excited about the possibility of a Genesis reunion, now I'm not so sure the band could ever reach those lofty heights of art again. Michaelanglo never tried to paint another Sistine Chapel, did he?

Exactly.

EDIT: Note that I love Gabriel's solo stuff as well. Gabriel's solo stuff is
probably in my top 10 (or top 5) of my favorite music while Genesis is # 1.
