This was the box I was most waiting for. My love affair with Genesis started with P.G's incarnation , and although I own (and truly treasure) the other two boxes ; this is the one I have been waiting for!!!
Phenomenal reproductions ! The 5.1 mixes are astonishing , and even just the stereo remixes pleasure the listener with sounds never heard before. And these are recordings I have heard at least 100's of times over the last 35 + years !
The DVD extras are nice. they round out the collection well. But in the grand scheme of things , early PG Genesis was about the musical imagery happening in your mind. For that alone , this box set offers and delivers it all!
Here's hoping Rhino puts out one more with all the Genesis Live discs. "Live" , "Seconds Out" , "Three Sides Live" , "The Shorts" , and "The Longs" could all benefit from an upgrade . And what lurks in the vaults from these live releases?????? Maybe time will tell
For now : Brush back your hair ; I want to get to know your flesh !
The Musical Box, Part III November 24, 2008

So, we finally come to it at last: the third & final Genesis box set in the band's box set trilogy. And this time, we're going all the way back to the band's beginning! "Genesis 1970-1975" is the Peter Gabriel era, the early days of the band when Phil Collins stayed behind the drumkit (or, in the case of "Trespass," wasn't even in the band yet), and Peter Gabriel was the frontman, dressing up in all of his wild, wacky costumes. Five albums included here: "Trespass," "Nursery Cryme," "Foxtrot," "Selling England By The Pound," and "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway," all remastered and remixed by producer Nick Davis, with lots of fantastic early concert footage, and insightful interviews with the various bandmembers, recorded in 2007 (NOTE: the group's 1969 debut album, "From Genesis To Revelation," is not included in the box set for legal reasons). The box set also comes with an exclusive bonus disc of rare tracks and exclusive footage, and a handsome 42-page booklet. All five Genesis albums featured here are 5-star classics in my book, and the sound quality and remixing on all of them is nothing short of superb (thank you, Nick Davis!). Like the two Genesis box sets before it, Davis has once again brought the vocals more up front, as well as some of the instrumentation, so you can now hear notes & passages played & sung that were previously buried. "The Lamb," in particular, is a whole new album! I heard stuff on this new version of "The Lamb" that I've *never* heard before (there's even a few more seconds added to Steve Hackett's mystic strumming on "Fly On A Windshield"---I never knew the track had been edited!). The bonus disc of rarities is a real treat---most of these rare cuts have already been issued on the "Genesis Archive 1967-1975" box set, and they're all fabulous (including the phenomenal "Twilight Alehouse"), but the main attraction here is the previously-unreleased 15-minute tape called "Genesis Plays Jackson," a never-finished soundtrack the band recorded for an aborted BBC documentary about the painter Michael Jackson, and the band would later raid some of this material for "Trespass," "Nursery Cryme," and "The Lamb." It is *very* fascinating stuff to hear. And the video content on this box set is sensational, with lots of amazing vintage concert footage of Peter & the boys in action, including the priceless, rare 1973 concert film shot on the "Selling England" tour (it's about an hour long), and equally-priceless TV performances recorded in 1971, '73 and '74. And listen to this: while there is no "proper" footage included from "The Lamb" tour---regretfully, the band never filmed the "Lamb" show in it's entirety---the 5.1 DVD of "The Lamb" offers an outstanding, visual reconstruction of the concert, including the band's original slides from the show, bootleg footage, and photos. It is absolutely breathtaking to watch, and probably the closest we'll ever get to an actual film of Genesis performing "The Lamb" themselves. And the 2007 interviews with all the guys are terrific, very informative and insightful. The *only* debit I can think of about "1970-1975" is the unfortunate omission of "From Genesis To Revelation," but I won't deduct any stars from my rating for it. Besides, "From Genesis To Revelation" IS available if you want it. It's not the greatest album Genesis ever made, but it's very good and you should still get it, AND you can complete your Genesis studio-album collection with it, too. I'm thrilled beyond words---my all-time favorite band have finally been honored in a huge, huge way with these three box sets. Pick up "Genesis 1970-1975" right now, and, as Peter Gabriel sang on "Cinema Show," take a little trip back with Father Tiresias. Thank you, and long live Genesis!

I will try to be brief, since Mr. Kerner's review covers many of the highlights of this fantastic box (although I can't imagine hearing these albums again, with the addition of such fantastic sound, and not giving this set a 5 rating). Still, hats off to his fine review. These albums are the holy grail of "old Genesis" fans (as well as those who appreciate all of the band's incarnations and recordings.
The SOUND is reason, in and of itself, to buy this box. Even those of us who have heard every note of this music countless times will appreciate the new listening experience afforded by the CD and DVD remixes.
What do you get in addition to all of the albums in finely remastered CD and 5.1 DVD mixes? Well, substantial live footage (although it's a shame that a full performance of The Lamb is not available, no fault of the band or Rhino, I'm sure), great interviews from the band members, a bonus CD and DVD of material (some that was available on the archive set, some on disc for the first time), and an excellent booklet of notes - although I'd strongly recommend the recent "Genesis Chapter & Verse" book to any fan.
Bottom line. Highest of recommendations.
Looking Back at Days of Five Instead of Three November 16, 2008

This set contains almost exactly what I wanted. The most important releases by one of my favorite bands, remixed in 5.1 surround. But there's quite a bit more than that.
It also contains nearly all of the existing video footage of the band from that time. Let that soak in. Most of it is in better quality than ever seen before. I think my VHS copy of the Midnight Special performance might be in better shape than theirs, but that's a minor complaint.
The set also contains the recently rediscovered Jackson Tapes. This was a 1970 recording session for a documentary about the painter Michael Jackson. In this recording, you can hear the compositional beginnings of The Fountain of Salmacis, Anyway, and the Musical Box, but with Anthony Phillips playing guitar. Makes me wonder if perhaps Anthony Phillips should have been getting royalties and songwriting credits on the Nursery Cryme album. Anyway is almost certainly a Tony Banks piece. But the Fountain and Musical Box were band compositions. Fascinating recordings to hear, that perhaps add a new wrinkle to the Genesis story.
But lets get back to the primary content... the surround mixes. Expletive exclamation!!! I haven't owned the set long enough to have heard and watched all of it. There's an awful lot to it, which is actually another of its features. But what I have listened to is outstanding. You hear individual musicians performances in much sharper definition. You hear elements that were hidden if not entirely absent. Back in NYC highlights the backing vocals in such a way that it is almost a new song. Many will complain about things like that. Let them. The band themselves have never been satisfied with the original mixes that were released on LP. There are moments in a handful of songs throughout the set where the new mix removes some of the impact you felt at a particular crescendo. This is a shame. But it is the only thing I can find fault with. Nick Davis has done an admirable job with the task he was given. I can't give him an A+ but a solid A certainly.
This boxed set is an absolute treasure. Even if you are not particularly familiar with early Genesis, but you like the progressive and classic rock of the 1970s, you could not go wrong in purchasing this set. You are in for a treat.

I've been waiting here for so long. Please understand before you read another word that this is a biased review. On a beautiful summer day in mid-1974 I meandered in to the local record store in Mill Valley, California with around $8.00 in my pocket of hard earned paper route money. I walked out with 2 albums for $1.00 that had never been played. The store owner was selling his "promo" albums for fifty cents each and I scored Mahogany Rush- "Child of the Novelty" and Genesis- "Trespass". I went home, smoked a very skunky reefer, and sat down to listen to my two new scores of which I'd never heard either band. My life has never been the same since. This week in November 2008 (34 years later) I've just obtained the new Genesis box set 3 (1970-1975) and "Child of the Novelty" 2006 remaster by Frank Marino. Once again I've been taken to places I've never been. Though the material is familiar the experience is BRAND NEW. Trust me, "The Lamia" gave me goose bumps on top of goose bumps, "Fly on a Windshield-Broadway Melody" struck sonic chords that were probably only present the day of their conception. God Bless these musicians and engineers and all the fans who pushed for and supported this kind of COSMIC ART that we don't see so much of these days. I've said my say, you can't get a better bang for your buck than Genesis- Box Set 3 and Mahogany Rush- "Child of the Novelty" remasters. Bless Yourself and buy them.
