STUNNING 1987 GERMAN BROADCAST FROM THE INVISIBLE TOUCH TOUR.
In February 1984, following the conclusion of their Mama tour, Genesis took a break in activity to allow each member to continue with their solo careers. Rutherford formed his group Mike + The Mechanics, Banks worked on his solo album Soundtracks, and Collins released No Jacket Required, which achieved worldwide success and increased his popularity as a result. The music press took note that Collins’ success as a solo artist made him more popular than Genesis. In June, Collins spoke of the band’s intention to start work on a new album that year, ending rumours to a false announcement that aired on BBC Radio 1, suggesting Genesis had split.
Genesis reconvened at The Farm in October 1985 to start work on Invisible Touch, which lasted for six months. They continued their method of song writing used on their previous album, developing material from group improvisations. During the session, Rutherford began to play an improvised guitar riff to which Collins replied with an off-the-cuff lyric – „She seems to have an invisible touch” – which became the song’s chorus hook. Following its release in June 1986, the album spent three weeks at No. 1 in the UK and reached No. 3 in the US, and became the best-selling Genesis album with seven million copies sold.
The Invisible Touch Tour was the band’s largest world tour in its history, which included 112 dates from September 1986 to July 1987. Genesis received some criticism of their decision to have Michelob beer as a sponsor. The tour concluded with four consecutive soldout shows at Wembley Stadium in London. The shows were released in 1988 as The Invisible Touch Tour. When the tour ended, Genesis took a five-year break while each member committed again to their solo projects. One of the latest shows on the Invisible Touch Tour was also one of the finest. On 8th June 1987, Genesis performed at the Latz Der Republik, in Berlin, where they put on a magnificent concert which is still a fan favourite to this day. Now available on this new 2CD set, the entire gig remains a superb artistic statement from the era when Genesis really were at the top of their game.
