chemistry1973 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Have y'all heard this? What a great recording - imperfect, but great audience reactions and an energetic performance. I always had heard that this performance was a dog, but this boot sounds KILLER to me. And they Solsbury HIll which is pretty interesting. It sounds great. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chemistry1973 Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 To add - it's interesting hearing this lineup. It totally could have worked through the 80s. A shame they didn't at least give it a shot in 99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova Carmina Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The videos people post never load for me on my at-home laptop for whatever reason, so I can't see/hear the recording you're referencing, but is it the "reunion" show they did in '82, or the April '75 show in Paris at the end of the "Lamb" tour? Actually, seeing that you mention "Solsbury Hill" it's gotta be the '82 show, which I think they did as a kind of fund-raiser for some tour PG had sponsored. If it's the '82 show, I agree that they sounded pretty good! One of those great "what ifs," I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurkst Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Haven't seen photo evidence of it, but have been told from people who were there that PG was brought onto the stage in a coffin carried by roadies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurkst Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) To add - it's interesting hearing this lineup. It totally could have worked through the 80s. A shame they didn't at least give it a shot in 99. Would've been great to see, but the massive commercial success they had later in the 80s probably ended any possibility. After that, most of the people buying tickets to see Genesis with Gabriel would be wanting to hear Invisible Touch or Sledgehammer, not Supper's Ready or The Musical Box. And that's without considering how popular Phil's solo career was (I've known people to turn up at a Genesis gig expecting to sing along to Against All Odds etc!) It's a shame that The Lamb "Broadway" show never came to fruition in the early 2000s. I've read different accounts as to why it didn't happen, some suggesting it was due to Peter, others Tony.

Sounds better than the recording I listened to way back when. Maybe this was a recently discovered source? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 My dad was speculating that Peter should come back to make an appearance for this upcoming Genesis tour, because it’ll be their last chance ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
