Genesis marked its 40th anniversary in 2006, and in 2007, honored the occasion with a tour reuniting the three man line-up that defined the group through its most successful era: lead vocalist/drummer Phil Collins, guitarist Mike Rutherford, and keyboardist Tony Banks. Onstage together for the first time in fifteen years, the power trio's “Turn It On Again Tour” played to sold-out stadiums and arenas nationwide and internationally. Adding to the celebration is Rhino's continued upgrade of Genesis' catalog with GENESIS 1983-1998, the second of three historic box sets that will ultimately cover their entire output to date. GENESIS 1983-1998 spotlights the band's “power trio years,” during which time Phil Collins also became a solo superstar. The box encompasses two-disc, CD/DVD editions of four classic albums - three with Collins - plus one rarities compilation: Genesis, Invisible Touch, We Can't Dance, Calling All Stations and Extra Tracks 1983-1998. Each of the four remastered CD/DVD album reissues are also available individually, but Extra Tracks is only available as part of the ten-disc GENESIS 1983-1998.
The CDs for each of the four catalog titles presents the original album in a sonically superior new stereo remix, remastered for optimum sound. The rarities CD presents unearthed gems spanning '83-'98. Each DVD disc includes a 5.1 DTS Surround Sound of the audio tracks plus bonus video content, photo galleries, memorabilia images and new 2007 interviews with the band. In total, the box set features more than three hours of previously unreleased video.
This is a 45-minute commercial-free radio special spotlighting the best of the 1983-1998 years.
