[kj] Genesis Fragment

[Christof hamille]

I bought it

Haven't had a chance to listen all the way through.  Fo rme they are not one 
of those drop the disc in and do the dishes or play wiht the kids.  So far 
what I've heard is good.  I will agree that the best elemen t that stands 
out is Chris Carter (I would have to assume it is his parts). Is it great?  
Not sure yet.  TG, in my opinion, are in the same scenario of releasing a 
disk of new material.  Can it live up to the past?  Should it? etc, etc.  
New York Dolls, the Stooges and on and on and on have all gone through the 
same.  One thing I do know.
Genesis is out of of his mind.  I've known of his latest status for some 
time but it still makes me roll my eyes.

Chris
