Genesis

Cruise to the Edge 2025 saluted the Holy Trinity of classic prog-rock: Genesis, Yes and King Crimson.

Drummer Chester Thompson tells UCR about his first night playing with the prog legends.

They ended up on top of the pop world – a world away from the band's proggy original approach.

Famous concept recording was fourth in his six-album stint with the group.

As their approach evolved through ever-shifting lineups, the decade would be defined by change.

Before taking over, he had to deal with former frontman Peter Gabriel’s attempts to play drums on stage.

He also names the least favorite song he recorded with the band.

Genesis icon says he'd play again if he could – and insists he’s still “a drummer that sings a bit.”
