They're certainly not a "tribute band" in the usual sense, but I've really enjoyed Genesis for Two Grand Pianos and am looking forward to their second release.

The pianos isolate and articulate every note for me. When I then listen to the originals, I hear things in the music that I'd never noticed, or never quite been able to "piece together" before because it was buried in a blur of other sounds, or obscured by limitations of 1970s recording technology. There are a half-dozen passages here and there, mostly those containing sustained notes, that don't tranlsate very well on piano, but most of it works well.

But more than just a way to analyze and re-experience the original music, it's good listening in its own right. It's in my car's CD changer almost all the time.

I'd really like to see this album added to AM.
