The founding line-up of Genesis consisted of guitarist Anthony Phillips, bassist Mike Rutherford, lead vocalist Peter Gabriel, keyboardist Tony Banks, and drummer Chris Stewart, all pupils of Charterhouse School in Godalming, Surrey.
- Supper’s Ready (Foxtrot, 1972) The Mona Lisa, the Guernica, the Ulysses, the veritable Mac Daddy of Gabriel-era Genesis epics. At 23 minutes, its seven sections with recurring motifs mash up classical symphony, rock restlessness and a breath-taking ambition to build the music to end all music: “a new Jerusalem”.
- I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe) (Selling England By The Pound, 1973) The only Gabriel-era hit single. An obvious commercial smash, in hindsight, given its everyday chart-friendly tale of a gardener who refuses to grow up because he’d rather push his lawnmower around forever.
- The Lamia (The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, 1974) As protagonist Rael navigates his way through the trials and traumas of The Lamb Lies Down – stalactites, stalagmites, wanking, losing his virginity, having his heart removed and shaved – he now finds himself in a languid pool with three Lamias, seductive snake-like sirens who have their wicked way with him, drink his blood, then die, leaving him a distorted, grotesque Slipperman.
- The Cinema Show (Selling England By The Pound, 1973) Another jewel from Selling England By The Pound, that album title being another piece of incontrovertible evidence that fusty old posh boys Genesis were politically on point – prophetic, even - way before it was fashionable.

- Supper's Read y (from Foxtrot, 1972) Not just the big daddy of Gabriel-era Genesis epics but the peerless pinnacle of prog. Over 23 minutes, its seven sections wonderfully weave together echoing motifs, fusing elements of classical symphony and rock vigour with almost absurd ambition.
- Firth Of Fifth (from Selling England By The Poun d, 1973) When Banks’ classically-influenced tinkling begins, you’re drawn in to the subsequent perversely complex time signatures, shifting tempos, and melancholy duelling between Gabriel’s flute and Hackett’s reiteration of the same on guitars which sound more like violins.
- The Cinema Show (from Selling England By The Pound, 1973) One of the rare upbeat songs from the Gabriel-era, eschewing their usual minor key melancholy for a cheerier vibe.
- The Musical Box (from Nursery Cryme, 1971) From the opening passages led by twelve-string guitar and flute, the song features Hackett’s rousing electric guitar work and a spirited organ solo from Tony Banks in the galloping mid-section.
