Genesis - Carpet Crawlers (Isolated Vocals)

Now here's another Genesis single that is probably one of their most interesting songs. "The Carpet Crawlers" is a single from the album "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" and was released in April 1975. It was also the last single to feature Peter Gabriel before his departure from the band.

Genesis - Many Isolated Guitar Solos

Today's video is somewhat of a special treat. Instead of just one isolation video, I have a compilation video of Steve Hackett's isolated guitar songs from a couple Genesis songs from their "Peter Gabriel" days. It'd be hard to list which albums all of these are from, but if you are a Genesis fan, I can say it's worth the watch. :)
