Genesis Archive are two archives with rarities of the British band Genesis:

Genesis Archive 1967–75 is a 1998 boxed set by progressive rock band Genesis.

This set features live recordings and rarities from when Peter Gabriel was the lead singer. The first two of the four discs consist of a previously unreleased (except for "The Waiting Room", issued as a 7" b-side in 1974) live recording of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway from 1975. The remaining discs contain performances from an unreleased live concert from London's Rainbow Theatre in 1973, demos, rare single tracks and 1970 BBC Sessions. All 52 tracks (besides the last 3 on disc 3 and track 2 from disc 2) had been previously unreleased. The entire set is arranged in reverse chronological order.

Some of Peter Gabriel's vocals on the live recordings were re-recorded by the singer in 1998 due to technical problems with the recording as well as elaborate costumes that often muffled his voice. Guitarist Steve Hackett re-recorded some guitar parts as well.

Genesis Archive 1967–75 reached No. 35 in the UK.

All songs written by Tony Banks/Phil Collins/Peter Gabriel/Steve Hackett/Mike Rutherford.

All songs written by Banks/Collins/Gabriel/Hackett/Rutherford.

Genesis Archive #2: 1976–1992 is a 2000 boxed set by veteran progressive rock/pop band Genesis. This retrospective covers the band's history while Phil Collins was lead singer.
