FM mention in Nick Mason interview
Camden New Journal
Nick says: "The main thing a band needs is a good songwriter. We had Syd, then Roger. Fleetwood Mac and Genesis also succeeded because they had more than one writer. But then Roger began to feel resentful, that he was carrying the whole band on his shoulders, and a split became inevitable." |

Nick also mentioned FM again in a recent radio (BBC2) interview, last month.He said that some band incarnations (ie he was mentioning Pink floyd with Roger Waters) were better than others and said that the present lineup of FM was the best of other versions of FM in the past. Errr...I hope thats not too confusing!!!! ..but I know what he means.

I respect Roger Waters and his input to Pink Floyd immensely, but I do think they are a better live band with David Gilmour running the good ship Floyd..
I always thought Syd Barrett was Floyd's Peter Green and Gilmour is Floyd's Lindsey Buckingham... Not sure where this leaves poor Roger.. Met Nick in October, very nice guy. p.s. I must say Roger's new songs "To Kill A Child" and "Leaving Beirut" are very good and very moving pieces... |

Pretty weird! Nick Mason mentions Fleetwood Mac and Genesis in his interviews and in the new Genesis box set (released last week) they mention Fleetwood Mac and Pink Floyd:
"Unusually for a band of such longevity, there is no definitive Genesis album, the way Pink Floyd have 'Dark Side Of The Moon' or Fleetwood Mac have 'Rumours'." Maybe they all should do a project together! That would be cool!

Not sure what could be a "definitive Genesis album"! Most Genesis albums could be defintive Genesis albums
Nursery Cryme: Phil Collins and Steve Hackett join the band Foxtrot: has Supper's Ready on it (radio friendly rock piece) The Lamb (what should I say about the Lamb?) A Trick Of The Tail: Best Genesis album (IMO), right after Gabriel left And Then There Were Three: first (great) album as a 3-piece We Can't Dance: Most successful album (6 month on #1 in Germany, most sucessful album in Germany ever) I think Genesis doesn't have a defintive album, they just got better from album to album (okay, let's forget Calling All Stations for a minute )! Maybe they should do a last album, along with Pink Floyd o say it is over!
