Ah yes, I certainly don't agree with your last bit re. Dancing Out....

Which surprises me, you probably haven't read what I edited

I totally agree re. Firth of Fifth.

'nough said

I don't enjoy the trio live version either for so many reasons that I won't go into now and yes, his tapping part is outstanding and an essential contribution to a song that otherwise wouldn't really be shabby either and he didn't…

OK, not just Steve's parts: without the instrumental parts that are absent from the trio's live version. I like the SEBTP version as is, with EVERYONE's contribution. Of course, the main instrumental part is Steve's guitar solo (the famous tapping part),…

No, you said that the song is relevant because of Steve, otherwise and I quote;'' It would be a song within the usual, universal, boring song format (as heard on the trio's live outings) - not the formidable piece of Genesis music…

She'll be waiting is a nice little acoustic track. It's one of those tracks where I wonder how they would sound with a full band. I think Ant has many great tracks that could be "more"

Don't rely on me but I'm guessing that yes it's telling us there are seated and standing (floor) tix available but if the seat plan is showing both in the same section then I'm not sure what would mean. It could be that FLOOR in this sense means arena…

We certainly agree that it was a band effort - which is exactly what I was saying yesterday.

But you should go back and listen to the piece again.

As for who brought what, it seems the main bits were from Gabriel and him - but it's difficult to find…

I think you should go back and read your words about the rest of the song and again, it's a band effort, can we agree though that he wasn't the one who brought in the song or any bit and didn't have anything to do with chords,…

I'm not reducing it to anything - the trio did that when playing it live.

And Hackett certainly is a major presence on the SEBTP version. Only here would people dispute that.

Thanks, Virgy!! I'm Spanish trying to write English and reading French. I realize now that "or" is "gold", not the English "or"... 🥴

Let's see and correct me if I'm wrong: you said everything worthwhile about this song is Steve's, you then proceeded to disparage the rest of the song, reducing it to a sappy, 3 man era ditty which is amusing but hey, it's your…

My observation: This poll voting reflects more the result of the tastes for the album quality and not the tours.

I am old enough to say that I saw the early tours 1973-1974 (4 times) and the Lamb tour was my #1 for many years. But with the advent of…

Hi,
No.
Only seated.

You know, Cinema Show instrumental is based on a Banks/Collins/Rutherford jam... So, what's your point ? Hackett is God ? Everything without him is shit ?

Hackett himself said it took some time before daring to compose and propose things to the…

You do realize you're putting an awful lot of words in my mouth, dontcha ? (Sounds painful!)

Nowhere am I saying that Hackett composed a lot in those days (although you forget the whole middle section/guitar solo of Moonlit Knight - the end is as much…
