...And Then There Were Three... is the ninth studio album by English rock band Genesis. It was released on 31 March 1978 by Charisma Records in the UK and by Atlantic Records in the US. The album marks a major turning point in the band's history, following the departure of guitarist Steve Hackett. This reduced the line-up to a core trio of drummer and vocalist Phil Collins, keyboardist Tony Banks, and bassist/guitarist Mike Rutherford. Faced with the loss of a primary songwriter, the remaining members deliberately shifted away from the sprawling, epic progressive rock structures that defined their previous work, opting instead for shorter, tighter, and more direct song formats. The album was recorded in the Netherlands and mixed at Trident Studios in London, under the direction of the band and producer David Hentschel. With Hackett gone, Rutherford took on all studio guitar duties, which significantly simplified the group's arrangements. The new songwriting approach yielded the band's first major global hit single, "Follow You Follow Me", which became their highest charting at that point, reaching No. 7 in the UK and No. 23 in the US.
