Cover Notes: With the departure of guitarist Steve Hackett in 1977, Genesis were reduced to a trio. Yet with their ninth studio album, '...And Then There Were Three...', Phil Collins, Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford continued to expand the scope of what the group could achieve. Released as the album's lead single, the classic 'Follow You Follow Me' proved that Genesis could be chart hitmakers, while their performance at Knebworth on 26 June 1978 - headlining the day-long 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' festival, on a bill with Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers, Jefferson Starship and Devo - continued their ascent to arena-filling mega-stardom. Broadcast on UK TV, the Knebworth show took a trip through Genesis' shape-shifting history to date. In just two years, the group would reinvent themselves again, making Knebworth 1978 a fascinating document of a crucial period in Genesis' development.
