Genesis in the Gabriel era sold well in the UK, but not in the U.S., where Selling peaked at #70, Lamb got to #41, and nothing else charted. Considered a prog band. Meanwhile in Argentina it remains one of the most influential acts for our own rock scene as well as producing swathes of *imitators* - not just artists inspired and influenced by them - across the world, all to the point of basically giving birth to a whole new subgenre in their wake with neo-prog. Heck, I'd argue they've had a more enduring legacy than several other undisputed "mega" bands like the Who. Fair enough, I love the band. Even up to "Trick" and "Wuthering" before Hackett left and they stopped being the truly English "pastoral" band they had been up to that point. Along with the "Canterbury" bands they were the most quintessential of Englishness. Tony Banks is all right hand though.
