Genesis

In 1981, Genesis was riding high on the success of their album "Abacab," released just months prior to the live recording at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. This album marked a significant shift for the band, embracing a more polished sound that balanced rock elements with accessible melodies. "Turn It On Again," performed during this concert, quickly became a fan favorite and showcased their evolving style. Interestingly, this era also signified a turning point for Genesis, as they solidified their status as a powerhouse in rock music, shifting from their progressive roots to more mainstream appeal. The energy captured in this live performance demonstrates their ability to engage massive audiences, a testament to their skill in bridging complex musicality with commercial success.
