That is a nice pic of the gig.
But last years tour was nothing like what has gone before.
I am one of there bigest fans and have been since 1970 seen them loads every line up even the gig when they all got back to gether again at Milton K.
Even they said that was a horrid gig.
Some things are better left in ones head.
Now Peter Gabriel last tour was something else.
Discs off the desk for all those and you got to choose what he played live on his site for each gig.
And he did what was posted for every gig.
Not many bands would do that.
Genesis holds a place in my head and heart and i have all there albums on cd and again on vinyl up to Duke after that it had to stop for me.


I have everything Genesis has done vinyl and CD. I grew up on the band. The gig last year was superb when they did In The Cage, Cinema Show, Afterglow, Firth of Fifth, I Know what I like, Los Endos and Carpet Crawlers - all the old stuff. Worth seeing just for that.

I was at the Six of the Best Milton Keynes Gig on October 2nd 1982, when Gabriel came out on stage in the coffin and they did Suppers Ready as well that night. All that mud and the rain. A night I will always remember. Missed the last train home......
How did you get back home?


Got as far as Victoria station. Had to wake my Dad up to do a sixty mile round trip into London to rescue me.

Munch, as usual, is spot on. Lots of different versions of Alright Now too! I really love the new version.

Munch
I love that Steve Miller album. I got the 30th anniversary CD edition - excellent stuff. My son, Mr Junkimunki, loves Steve Miliband, as he insists on calling him! I love Seconds Out too: I had some Genesis on the iPod at the gym at lunchtime. They may not be cool but they made some great music.


Hang on Chris & Munch. I'm easily confused and you have managed it! I can't find a 16 track recent remaster of "Seconds Out", just the 1994 12 track version. Help? It's a geat album. ROTF needs to take a break from his fixation with birds in floppy hats, and admit than Collins helps make that superb set. Big Grin

Secondly, what's this about "Alright Now"? I have pretty much everything Free ever did - have I missed something else?

There is no new remaster of Seconds Out which is probably a very good thing based on the recently released new versions of all the studio albums from Trick of a Tail onwards. These have been remixed, remastered, compressed and ruined.

Very dark topic, but a great soundtrack with excellent recording/mastering.

Ahh. Thanks Chris. I think I might try the SHM "Fire & Water", but I think the delux is the same mastering as the one I have. Albeit with even more extras.

Jim,
Have you got the dvd plus 2cds box set of this?


Hi munch

Short answer is no. I didn't know there was a boxed set + dvd otherwise I probably would have bought that one instead. I really am enjoying her music even more these days. Excellent artist.

Chris Difford on MySpace- tracks from a new album, The Last Temptation of Chris.
Posted on: 24 March 2008 by Ian G.


A regular listen on our house - the mixture of Jazz/funk/oriental that LA based Hiroshima produce is much to our taste - not a band I see often in these pages though.
