I highly recommend the England _Garden Shed_ CD.  I KNOW you would like
it.

Yeah, and I still do pull out _Rage For Order_ every now and then.  It
probably is still my favorite of theirs.  _Promised Land_ has some very
impressive music on it and I was hoping that they would keep it up for
the next one.
Oh well, are you eagerly awaiting for the new Genesis CD?  Yeah, me
neither.  I talked with one of the new drummers (he was at Progfest
playing drums for Spock's Beard) and he said that the new stuff is very
similar to _We Can't Dance_.  I asked him if they let him "really play"
and he said that there were some pretty good spots on it.  It wasn't a
real ringing endorsement.
