Peter Gabriel left the band in 1975. After considering various replacement lead singers, they settled on using their drummer, Phil Collins, and thus changed from a 5-piece group to a 4-piece. When Steve Hackett left in 1977, Mike Rutherford took over his guitar duties, making the group a 3-piece (Collins, Banks, Rutherford). This remained the line-up until Collins left in 1996, to be replaced by Ray Wilson, who was not readily accepted by fans and remained for only a single album. The group still nominally exists with the long-standing Collins, Banks, Rutherford line-up, but is "resting" and has not produced any new music.
