From Genesis to Revelation

From Genesis to Revelation is the debut studio album by the English rock band Genesis, released on 28 March 1969 on Decca Records. The album originated from a collection of demos recorded in 1967 while the members of Genesis were pupils of Charterhouse in Godalming, Surrey. The band gave the demos to Jonathan King who named the group, organised deals with his publishing company Jonjo Music and Decca, and got them studio time at Regent Sound Studios to record a series of singles and a full album. A string section arranged and conducted by Arthur Greenslade was added later on some songs. By the time Genesis had finished recording, John Silver had replaced original drummer Chris Stewart.
