Johnnie Walker Meets... Genesis
Recorded in 2014, Johnnie Walker talks, in depth, to Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Phil Collins, about their long and fascinating careers as solo artists and in Genesis
Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford famously met Peter Gabriel at Charterhouse School in the mid 60s and formed Genesis in 1967 as progressive rock and live performance pioneers.
Along the way they said farewell to friends like Anthony Phillips and Chris Stewart, but gained inspired guitarist Steve Hackett and a drama student and jazz drummer called Phil Collins.
It is testament to these mild mannered English gentlemen that they survived the departure (and occasional return) of Peter and Phil as lead vocalists and huge solo successes to remain friends and stay together. They also stuck to their musical roots and principles enjoying both long album songs and huge worldwide chart hits.
Recorded and first broadcast in 2014, the three remaining Genesis members - Tony, Mike and Phil joined Johnnie Walker, in the same room, to talk in depth about all their albums, singles, tours and solo work. They talk frankly about being perhaps too ubiquitous in the 80s, changing drumming forever and welcoming each person's solo work as a building block for the success of the whole band.
