from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Turn It On Again - The Hits (. English for: " Make them again - The Hits ") is a compilation album by the British rock group Genesis , named after the hit from the album Duke of 1980. It was originally in October 1999 published and contains 18 of the greatest successes of Genesis , the selection rather than the progressive phase of the band, almost all the commercially successful singles of the later albums of the 1980s and 1990s in the foreground represents. The only new recording is "The Carpet Crawlers 1999", produced by Trevor Horn . It is a re-recorded version of the song from the album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway from 1974 in the former cast of Tony Banks on keyboards, Phil Collins on drums and on vocals, Peter Gabriel on vocals, Steve Hackett on guitar and Mike Rutherford on the bass. A 2-CD version of the compilation was released for the 2007 Turn-it-on-Again tour.
