Genesis

In the summer of 1987, Genesis was riding high on the success of their album "Invisible Touch," which had been released just a year prior. This record was something of a cultural touchstone for the band, marking their transition into a more pop-oriented sound while still retaining elements of their progressive rock roots. The Wembley concert on July 4, 1987, captured an electric performance, showcasing hits from this era that defined their legacy. Interestingly, the 'Invisible Touch' album was not just commercially successful; it also solidified their status as one of the leading bands of the ’80s. Songs like "Land of Confusion" and "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" resonated deeply with fans. The live recording at Wembley highlighted not only their musical prowess but also their ability to create an engaging atmosphere, something that was palpable in the lively crowd and the band's dynamic stage presence. It really was a remarkable moment in their storied career.
