Genesis

In 1984, Genesis was riding high on the success of their self-titled album, released just a year prior. This album marked a significant moment in their evolution, embracing a more pop-oriented sound that resonated with a vast audience. The live recording of 'That's All' from the Birmingham NEC is a beautiful snapshot of the band's 'Mama Tour,' reflecting their growing popularity during this time. The show showcased not only their musical prowess but also their ability to connect with fans through emotionally charged performances. Notably, this concert also highlighted Phil Collins' dual role as both frontman and drummer, a unique dynamic that set them apart from other bands. It’s interesting to note that this performance came at a time when Genesis was shifting further into the mainstream, laying the groundwork for their future hits.
