Thank you Ian.

I might just end up buying these.

This box set is available and has been released.

The message from eBay was that they have it in stock but they cannot possibly find the information for me as they are too busy.

The message from Amazon is that they do not know.

Furthermore it is not available for download.

Maybe I should take a punt as it is such good value.

Only trouble is that I might end up with a single disc of Phil Collins serious hits cd.

This bumper 8CD box set is available at the bargain price of £25is. It is also on eBay too. The trouble is that nobody knows anything about it. No concert details or track listing. I have tried writing messages to both companies and the replies have been poor. Any searches on the internet uncovers nothing.

Here is the amazon link:

Can anybody help?

We have all been discussing this for years.

It would be marvellous to get this done for the future.

When the box set is released, we will not know which of the three nights those Lyceum tracks come from. It could be one of three, and it might even be from 'Drury Lane'. Will Nick Davis or Tony Banks clarify this?

Thank you Christian. I am so excited about this box set. I am behaving like a teenager again. I have got everything here on my computer already with the exception of Wembley 1975 Watcher. Watcher must have sounded amazing blasting through the arena.

Abacab was the highlight for me when I was beginning to love Genesis. It remains my favourite album to this day and most of my best moments are tucked well out of sight. 'Like it or not', 'Me and Sarah Jane'. The BBC did not do an 'in concert' broadcast around that tour or the subsequent one either. By the time we got to Wembley 1987 only the title song was played.

On new box set:

'

Album with most tracks; Duke: 5.

Album with least tracks; Abacab: 0.

There is not one track from Abacab!

I normally move on straight away but I had to stay on full screen for the duration of that. What a tune that second song is from 5 minutes onwards. Whoever wrote that is a genius.

I have been into Unitopia for a while.

They did a covers album which starts with 'The Carpenters' 'Calling Occupants'. The keyboard player writes most of the songs and the lead singer has a lovely deep gravel voice. They are signed to IQ's label I believe, GEP.

Best songs:

From Artificial:

The great Reward

From More than a dream:

More than a dream.

There's a place.

They did a live album called 'One night in Europe' which is on YouTube and this sums them up.

For me this is fantastic news.

I have mentioned this before but this is my favourite PC album.

I'm loving 'Esthesis'.

Especially the album 'The Awakening'.

All tracks are excellent especially 'No Soul to sell'.

They are fantastic musicians playing eerie jazz combined with prog. Very reminiscent of Hackett crossed with a classical grand piano.

That is exciting news about BBC4 next Friday night.

I get so exasperated about endless programmes about Queen and Abba on a Friday night. Admittedly those bands are usually on BBC2 or Ch5.

I will have to record them next Friday because I am attending a Marillion concert down at Hammersmith.

Very excited about 5CD box set. I had forgotten that the 1987 IT concert was live on Radio 1. It would be sensible for the first Genesis box set to be 1970 to 1980, including Knebworth and Lyceum.

Then they could do another one if demand is as massive as I think it will be.

I have been dreaming about this since I was a child when I clutched the Friday Rock Show recording on a C90 tape and it cut off in the middle of 'Follow you Follow me.'

I apologise about Earls Court 1977.

That is Nicky Horne introducing it.

I am listening to this atm.

It is excellent, very delicate and evocative.

The BBC also broadcast the 1975 Lamb show from Wembley Arena in a 60 minute set. It would be good if the BBC could dig up the whole concert.

Knebworth '78 Was that the BBC?

Earls Court '77. Was that the BBC? My version has Bob Harris presenting it.

Due to illness I have 2 tickets available for...
