A beautiful, investment-grade archive copy of Genesis’s pivotal 1978 release, ...And Then There Were Three.... This is a guaranteed original US first pressing on the Atlantic Records label (Catalog # SD-19173) that has remained factory sealed and completely untouched for nearly 50 years.
Following the departure of guitarist Steve Hackett, ...And Then There Were Three... captures Phil Collins, Tony Banks, and Mike Rutherford stepping forward as a streamlined trio. The album masterfully bridges the band's complex progressive rock roots with tighter, more accessible songwriting. It features their legendary, breakthrough international hit single "Follow You Follow Me," alongside powerful fan favorites like "Down and Out," "Burning Rope," and "Many Too Many." This original first-pressing master offers the warm, rich analog depth that modern digital remasters simply cannot replicate. 
Crucially, this copy is completely immaculate with NO cutout holes, NO corner saw-cuts, and NO barcode clips. It is a rare, perfectly preserved retail survivor. Sealed original copies from the band's late-70s era are becoming increasingly difficult to source in flat, clean condition, making this a spectacular time capsule for serious Genesis completists and prog-rock vinyl collectors.
