Genesis
Phil Collins and Chester Thompson Drum Duet Leading into Los Endos Live at Wembley Stadium
In the summer of 1987, Genesis was basking in the glow of their album 'Invisible Touch,' which had just been released a year prior. This album marked a significant change in their sound, delving deeper into a polished pop rock vibe that resonated widely with audiences. The Wembley Stadium live recording captures an electrifying performance during the band's peak, showcasing their ability to blend theatricality with musicianship. The 'Drum Duet' by Phil Collins and Chester Thompson is a highlight, perfectly setting the stage for 'Los Endos.' Interestingly, 'Invisible Touch' would go on to become their most commercially successful album, demonstrating how Genesis had evolved beyond their progressive roots into a mainstream powerhouse. This performance symbolizes a moment when Genesis truly embraced their dual identity as both a tight-knit band and a live spectacle, drawing fans from all walks of life.
