13. Very strong track! But there are a few better ones on that album so 13 is a appropriate rating imo

Yesterday they rehearsed another completely unknown / new track in Verona. So that could also find its way onto the album. Let’s wait what kind of song this is (and what it’s name is)
Blukaos - have you heard this one during soundcheck?
I wasn’t sure but had the same impression. That must have been a new track they rehearsed. Maybe tonight in Milan …

Slegdehammer Krakow:
Peter Gabriel Kraków 18.05.2023, Sledgehammer, Don't Give Up, Red Rain, In Your Eyes - YouTube
Sledgehammer Verona:
ROCKFANS presenta: PETER GABRIEL live in Verona 20.05.23 [parte seconda e ultima] - YouTube
Find the differences....same hesitations same pauses...very strange....either Peter is a genius or the vocal track is recorded....
🤦🏼♂️
Seriously, those are clearly live takes. But you seem to seek the negative. Why? Such a strange approach to music we like.
I wonder why you haven’t posted anything about the hilarious In Your Eyes fuck-up in Krakow yet …

Heard it in Austria on the radio the other day, but I think it was the bright side mix. Anyway, nice he gets some airplay.
Still nothing "extra" on BANDCAMP yet (alternative version, demo or anything like that). I wonder why.

Mike played better - guitar - on the Last Domino Tour but on bass - and on Jesus - he played very well IMO!
Yes I agree, Mike was in good shape during the Genesis tour.
About Jesus: Was more thinking about Tim. I don't think this track is a good one for him.

That's one of my favorites by the Mechanics. A very straight, but still kind of unique songwriting and arrangement. It works like as well. A great album as well!

Hi all,
I’m on the hunt for the original raw transfer from the master of this recording, could anyone help me please? Thank you in advance if you can.
Are you sure this show was recorded professionally?

I'm sure Drennan is a nice guy and all.
But his guitar playing as well as the solo, on Jesus,
Is terrible.
Even ghost got closer to what should be played.
Ghost are a metal band, that's a very different style.
Don't forget it's recorded with a mobile phone. Everything sounds a bit muffled here. Tim got a lot of criticism on his singing, based on that video. But those who were there claimed they sounded great.
For the solo part, I tend to favor his "more relaxed" approach he has compared to Daryl (and I like Daryl too - but the same goes with Firth of Fifth back in 1998, also because of the improvisation that was different every night).
I've read on Facebook that Anto apparently played a bit of Firth of Fifth (possibly during the Word of Mouth extended ending at the end of the concert). Nice ! I would like to see that.
Of course you are right but still it looks to me like they simply made the wrong decisions (choosing Jesus...) and also, Mike is not really playing well. Keep in mind he played really well during the Last Domino Tour!

Back from Wuppertal. Saw the first night. Minor problems during the opening tracks and obviously Amanda had problems as well (she didn't sing anymore on Sat and Sun), Steve a little handicapped but in general a fabulous show and sound and especially the choir added some atmosphere that was missing in London 2019. Don't wanna miss that show, it was simply stunning.

The 2007 tour was pretty notable in that intervening period.
of course. But not much more. That was my point. We pretty much lived without any major Genesis activity for two decades, so the full stop last year wasn't really suprising ... nor "painful"

no other choice. It's in my PG all-time top 5. The whole album is stunning.
he actual assassination scene in the song mirrors more the JFK shooting, with the president riding in an open limousine.
I know that story as well but did Peter ever confirm it's about JFK?
-
Crazy, already more than a year ago. Still hard to believe it's really over. Then again, they didn't do a lot since 1998 anyway. But this last run of shows was bittersweet on many levels.

I like the crazy story and most of the track's arrangement. I agree it could have been arranged better in some places, but overall a great track.

Hey
Have you read the incredible article about the BBC Night Ride on Anthony Phillips' website? I think it's only been online for a few days. I'm not quite finished reading yet - but what I've learned so far is simply brilliant!
Thanks Jonathan Dann

A 9 from me
It's ok, but I will probably never get used to horns in a Genesis song.
Here's a intersting TV appearance (Germany, and no horns on stage)

Some interesting choices here, like Never a Time?! Also some interesting nuggets - I never knew Driving the Last Spike charted on the billboard 200. Also some inaccuracies at first glance.
That made me laugh
I wonder how Abacab got in this list

It's a "grower". First listen was ... well, ok, what's that? But then it slightly appears, the magic, the emotion. Just wonderful!
Quite different tracks, those three first releases, by the way!
-
I bought it! Have only played it a couple of times as background music. I did prefer the second disc but needs a bit of time to sink in as there is a lot of it!
Haven't really found the time to listen to this carefully. Will do!

The ad featured various live snippets including Sledgehammer and Solsbury Hill and prefaced with "At last... the wait is over!"
Several ads appeared on TV in Europe, all based on this video:
