THE BEGINNING - 1970 - 1975

THE THIRD GENESIS BOX SET ON SACD/CD HYBRID AND DVD DUAL DISC SETS

RELEASED: 10 NOVEMBER 2008 (11 NOVEMBER 2008 US Release)

Press information:

Virgin/EMI concludes the SACD/CD Hybrid and DVD Dual Disc reissue of the Genesis albums with the release of the final box set: 1970 - 1975.

On 10 November 2008, Genesis release the final instalment of their reissued albums in 5.1, including new stereo mixes, exclusive DVD footage and rare extras. Having already charted the transformation from prog-rock pioneers to stadium-filling power trio Genesis, the third and final studio boxed set goes back to the beginning covering the band’s early years with lead singer Peter Gabriel.

Following on from the massive success of the Genesis DVD ‘When In Rome’, which topped the music DVD chart for 3 consecutive weeks, the box set ‘Genesis: 1970-1975′ contains the five studio albums from ‘Trespass’ to ‘The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway’ plus an extras disc full of rarities including Genesis Plays Jackson, an aborted soundtrack project for a BBC Art film on the work of painter Michael Jackson.

GENESIS: 1970-1975 presents five of the band’s earliest studio albums as SACD/CD Hybrid and DVD Dual Disc sets featuring 5.1 DTS and Dolby Digital Surround Sound and new stereo mixes of the original albums (5.1 and news stereo mixes created by Tony Banks, Nick Davis and Mike Rutherford), plus bonus videos and new interviews with band members filmed exclusively for these reissues. The set contains hours of previously unreleased video.  A booklet accompanies each album featuring sleeve notes by Richard McPhail (Trespass), David Baddiel (Nursery Cryme), Roger Taylor (Foxtrot), Jeremy Clarkson (Selling England By The Pound) and Tony Robinson (The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway).

One of the top-selling recording artists of all time, Genesis has sold more than 150 million albums so far. This Box set collects some of the band’s more adventurous, experimental and ground-breaking albums, covering Peter Gabriel’s tenure with the group.
