Man, it is beyond me how ANYONE can manage drumming and singing lead at the same time. Good job by Jerry Marotta. Although I like Gabriels voice more of course. But still their performance is great.
Great choice Tony. One of my favorite Genesis songs. This would sound great redone by somebody good make it a little more updated. Maybe I will. This should of been a hit song but maybe it was for the best that it was not.
Awesome vesion! I saw this band perform this song at knitting factory in NYC just before the mets and yankees were about to start the world series in 2000. In introduction tony said that he wrote this song for that subway series. A fib I forgive being a longtime genesis fan.
Awesome! The funny thing about this is, Tony, Jerry and Larry both played with Peter Gabriel, and here they are covering a song he did with his old band! :D Thanks for posting this.
@LeathalWorksInc -No, it's the opening line of the song, "I see faces and traces of home... back in New York City..."

I was just about to write "Fantastic drummer!" when I discovered that he also sang.
... Incredible.
