R-Kive is a career-spanning box set by English veteran progressive rock band Genesis. It was released on 29 September 2014 in the UK, and on 30 September 2014 in the US. The set consists of three CDs that span Genesis' career. In addition, it includes tracks from solo albums and other projects from members Peter Gabriel, Steve Hackett, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, and Phil Collins. The compilation is intended to be a companion to the BBC documentary Genesis: Together and Apart, broadcast in October 2014. The documentary, like the compilation, also features solo efforts as well as the band. The documentary is slated for release in late October 2014 on DVD and BluRay under the title of Genesis: Sum of the Parts.




When Genesis teased fans with the promise of “exciting news” to be announced on Aug. 22, speculation ran wild; given that former members recently participated in an upcoming retrospective documentary, some hoped that the dormant band would be springing back to life for new music or a reunion tour. As it turns out, the announcement had nothing to do with either of those things — and some fans are unhappy as a result.

Instead, the group’s news relates to ‘R-Kive,’ an upcoming three-disc box that chronologically surveys hits and fan favorites across the Genesis discography while adding in noteworthy cuts from the various members’ solo careers. It’s due Sept. 22 in the U.K., with an international release reportedly to follow Sept. 29. Universal Music, the label behind the release, proudly reminds buyers that “Genesis and their associated solo projects have accumulated a remarkable series of accomplishments over the years. They’ve collectively amassed an incredible 14 chart-topping albums, as well as over two dozen more that reached the top 10. In total, Genesis and the members’ related solo projects have sold more than 300 million albums worldwide.”

With the Genesis box set market already fairly well saturated, this news was bound to come as something of a disappointment to many fans. Indeed, as Consequence of Sound points out, many have taken to the band’s Facebook page to express their displeasure with comments such as “So the big announcement turns out to be [a] lazy cash in where I get the chance to buy the stuff I already have in new packaging.”

But those fans can at least look forward to continued and/or renewed solo activity from a number of former band members — including Phil Collins, who’s rumored to be inching toward a tour, and Mike Rutherford, who will return to the road with his Mike & the Mechanics project next year.

Das CD-Set, das 42 Schaffensjahre umfasst, dokumentiert die Bandgeschichte mit klassischen Arbeiten von Genesis und ausgewähltem Material aus den Solokarrieren von Tony Banks, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Steve Hackett sowie Mike Rutherford / Mike + The Mechanics. R-Kive enthält in chronologischer Reihenfolge die größten Hits von Genesis, darunter ‘Invisible Touch’, ‘Turn It On Again’, ‘Land of Confusion’ und ‘I Can’t Dance’. Dazu gesellen sich, in entsprechender Reihenfolge, Soloklassiker wie ‘The Living Years’ und ‘Over My Shoulder’ von Mike + The Mechanics, ‘In The Air Tonight’ von Collins und sein Duett mit Philip Bailey, ‘Easy Lover’, sowie Peter Gabriels ‘Solsbury Hill’.

On paper, the 2014 triple-disc set R-Kive makes sense: tell the tale of Genesis from beginning to end, roughly separating each disc into an act - disc one is devoted to the early years with Peter Gabriel; the second to the rise of Phil Collins; the third to Collins and beyond - deepening the portrait by threading in solo recordings by its founding members along the way. It would seem this approach would offer a broader understanding of what Genesis and its various branches accomplished, but it tends to muddy waters due to its egalitarian compilation. Of the five original members, Gabriel and Collins were the undoubted superstars, racking up international hits in several different decades. Mike Rutherford had his run at the charts with Mike + the Mechanics - "Silent Running" and "The Living Years" were nearly as ubiquitous in the late '80s as Collins' "One More Night" and "Sussudio" - but Tony Banks and Steve Hackett used their individual solo albums to pursue their prog roots, so when these are combined alongside album rock radio and chart hits from the band proper, the balance feels skewed. It also doesn't help matters that nearly half of the final disc is devoted to material recorded after 1991's We Can't Dance (the album itself is represented by three songs, the same number that were pulled from 1986's Invisible Touch and 1974's The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway), material that can't be called classic by any stretch; nor is it welcome that apart from "In the Air Tonight," most of Collins major '80s hits are missing (his Philip Bailey duet "Easy Lover" is here, though), as are Gabriel's, who is represented by "Solsbury Hill" and "Biko." So what is here, then? Most of Genesis' standards, ranging from "Supper's Ready" and "I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)" to "Follow You Follow Me," "Turn It on Again," "That's All," "Tonight Tonight Tonight," and "Hold on My Heart," and three cuts apiece from all five original members, which adds up to over a full third of this compilation. This does amount to a version of the Genesis story - all of the group's struggles, triumphs, and constant evolution are readily apparent - but there's too much excess and too much missing for R-Kive to be definitive.
