Witness the exact moment prog-rock history pivoted: the fragile, ferocious 1975 Trident sessions where a leaderless Genesis picked up the pieces, tested the limits, and accidentally found their new voice behind the drum kit!
The post-Gabriel era began not with certainty, but with experimentation. Following the departure of Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, Phil Collins, and Steve Hackett regrouped as a four-piece to see if Genesis could survive. The Tricky Sessions collects the rare Trident Studios sessions and provisional takes for what became the masterpiece A Trick of the Tail, alongside essential live cuts. This double-LP package offers a fly-on-the-wall perspective of a legendary band reinventing its sound before Collins permanently stepped behind the microphone.
