  • firth of fifth best song ever

  • @gttmjhjljjtgj One for the Vine is better actually

  • Description is wrong, Wind & Wuthering was 1976 as well.

  • @GiantEnemyCrabgot WInd & Wuthering was released in December 27, 1976 in US. I always refer to it as a work in 1977 because including Trick Of The Tail & WInd & Wuthering as 1976 releases is kind of misleading although technically correct. I prefer to refer to WInd & Wuthering as a 1977 release because that's pretty much how it's regarded and I will continue to do so.

  • Phil really had that "I only just crawled out of bed"-look down to a T.

  • Am I the only one who thinks the 2007reunion tour lacked a lot of the creepy darkness as seen here and on other Genesis tours

  • @mulleoops When they went to screens they lost a lot of the visual atmosphere that these lights provided. I prefer the lights to the screens.

  • @kamwrites Totally, totally agree. Give me light any day!!

  • Always thought this song would make a cool movie, kind of a sci-fi fantasy.

  • Is Phil going to Hawaii here

  • Great tune, great band! And a fantastic drumming by Chester and Phil!!

  • The jangly, phased Yamaha Electric Grand is gorgeous throughout. Cabaret meets sci-fi. Truly the sound of the late 70s

  • must have watched this 20 times by now!

  • magnificient prog....we'll never see something like this...never

  • matchless . flair in every department

  • matchless

    

  • My absolute favorite Genesis song of all time, next to The Lamia and Mad Man Moon

  • he walked into the valley, all alone, then he talked with water and then with the vine

  • Tony is a hell of a composer. What an incomparable tune!!

  • @tungmobi tony banks is a giant!

  • Damn. I used to have a songbook of "Trick" back in the Seventies but it was misplaced. Guess i'll have to learn it again the old fashioned way like we did with Ripples...and all these great tunes. By ear. Saw them in Oakland in 2007 and they were fuckin' on it!

  • @jimmybfan I actually HAVE that songbook! "Trick & Wind" in a combined songbook.

  • i keep coming back for this.

    tony banks + genesis=brilliance.

  • this was magnificent tommygun1028.

  • Oh to see they actually DID this, once upon a time! Coming up in the '80s, who woulda thought that they turned their backs on such a rich legacy as One For the Vine. With Rutherford on bass, where he belongs, as it was what he was best at.

  • This is the first song I ever heard from Genesis, I knew instantly Genesis would be my new favorite band. In fact, I think it was my first proper favorite band, and it still is.

  • just sheer brilliance love it

  • Magical Storytelling & Chords

  • this truly is majestic and the best musical quality, a gem for the ages, thx!

  • I love this song thank you Tommygun1028

  • WITH THE BLESSING'S OF JEAN-LUC-PONTY ...

  • Storytime music, alights your burdened soul upon the most beautiful of perches and burns brilliant within. How many nights did I spend laying beneath the oak and maple trees of my teenage years in Ontario, the earphones of my walkman pressed tightly to my ears so that I would not miss even the quietest touches? The pot was not as good back then, but the music more than made up for it. I rejoice knowing that this music is flying through the universe now forever, one day maybe for me to hear again

  • Thanks for posting this TommyGun, amazing performance :)

  • QUESTA E' MUSICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Indeed music at its best.

  • 5:54 What a bass groove !

  • @ns9144, seconds out tour is a defining moment in mine and a host of other people's lives. I agree, genesis is OUR soundtrack, right from Silent Sun I was hooked.

  • 13 pessoas desconhecem progressivo assim como desconhecem a palavra Música... se forem surdas eu até acredito !

  • Tommy I enjoy so much this access to the music i listen when younger...I will invite my facebook friend to visit you...Genesis has been so long in my life....so long my life

  • most epic ending surely has to be the musical box live

  • @dtrueland Especially from the 1977 Tour. That ending on "Second's Out" with Chester going around the Kit and Tony's Hammond Organ still sends vibrations of joy thru my being!

    Truly the greatest and most Epic band to ever come along.

    The music of Genesis IS the soundtrack to all our lives.

  • ONLY Supper's Ready has a more EPIC ending - absolutely jaw-dropping, mind-blowing brilliance that will NEVER be touched!!! GENESIS will always and forever RULE THE UNIVERSE!!!

  • @DeadSeaGenesis the ending of suppers ready on seconds out is for sure the most epic ending!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @aponcapone Quite Magnificent!! Pure Quality Man!!!!

  • @DeadSeaGenesis This is better than Supper's Ready. Supper's Ready is overrated with too many boring parts.

  • @ThroughRock If you don't get 'the boring parts' of Supper's Ready I hope your nick has nothing to do with the band. You can't seriously put those two pieces in the same ball park... This is good,. Most of the stuff with Peter brilliant. No comparison. 

  • @PrZemek44 Supper's Ready has great parts but the bit connecting Lover's Leap and The Garunteed Eternal Sanctuary Man goes on too long, How Dare I Be So Beautiful is dull and the Apocolypse 9/8 solo isn't too interesting. The best parts of the song IMO are Lover's Leap, The Band of Merry Men (fantastic) and Willow Farm. Eggs is Eggs is pretty good.

    But One for the Vine is consistently fun and powerful. I'm sick of people putting Supper's Ready before everything just because it's longest.

  • @ThroughRock 'Because it's the longest'? This one statement should get you banned from saying a word about Genesis :)

    I've heard Super's Ready 1000s times (in 35 years...) and THAT'S why I don't hear a single note that doesn't belong there.

    Agree, One For the Vine is FUN.

  • @DeadSeaGenesis What about the end/climax of The Musical Box?

  • @pleatedskirt18 Musical Box and Supper's Ready have great endings but if you want a real epic ending then you've gotta go with LOS ENDOS any day!!! (Even the name says it all.)

  • First genesis song I ever heard!!!!!!!!!!

  • Tommygun1028,is this @the Spectrum in Phila, PA?

  • @billyv007 Lyceum Theater in London, 1980

  • Phil and Chester drumming together is always breathtaking!

  • simply amazing

  • pure prog class this is music at its best

  • I just am in deep love with the piano riff that goes with "fifty thousand men" I love that key change right at "were sent" it's too perfect.

  • @Turbulence654321 It's a classic alright! Left hand, D minor (D-F-A) to G minor7 (D-F-G-Bb)

  • Jeez, what a great thing to see Collins sit down at the drum set and get into his element, delivering some fantastic beats.

  • studio is much better

  • FIFTY THOUSAND MEN WERE SENT TO DO THE WILL OF 1...

  • NIESAMOWITE ! :-)

  • I wud give my left teste, not my right, but my left teste to be able to go back in time to go to this performance.

  • Their best epic!

  • genesis are without doubt the best ever prog rock band

  • I so wish that they did this during their farewell tour. Still, it is nice that the memories are forever stored here. Thanks for posting this, Tommygun!

  • I was at that 1980 concert. I kept yelling "Supper's Ready" and then Phil said "Sorry, we love that song, but aren't allowed to play it." Still so happy to see my favorite band live in New Orleans. Time I saw them before that was Then Three tour at a stadium here only one-third filled, which was awesome to have so personal of a Genesis concert. To boot, I was with my beautiful young blonde new girlfriend who was so sweet and sexy, & we were kissing & tripping on orange sunshine. I was in Heaven!

  • das definitiv beste album von genesis, ich finde sie waren niemals besser...wonderful song...

  • 1975, INGLEWOOD FORUM, CALIFORNIA, PHIL RAN ON STAGE WITH A FULL BEARD, A HOCKEY STICK, THE LIGHTS WENT OUT, AND THEN THE OPENING SONG, SQUONK.

  • @ysbnnews It would be 77 if they opened with Squonk.

  • Comment removed

  • Hacket is clearing missing here!

  • @cristicini definately so ... there is big void in this performance

  • @cristicini Yeah, in a lot of ways. But Daryl did do a good job stepping in his shoes, which is not easy.

  • I love Genesis. This song is beautiful.

  • GRACE WITH WITNESS...

  • Phil Collins is a great Master on drums at !!! 6mn35 .

  • OPENING SONG, 1977, LONG BEACH ARENA CALIFORNIA.

  • @ysbnnews lucky b....

  • Comment removed

  • and MR. RUTHERFORD, without chemistry, there would be no catalyst...

  • GREGG ROLIE SEPERATING FROM SANTANA TO BEGIN JOURNEY, DARRELL STUERMER FINISHING HIS WORK WITH JEAN-LUC-PONTY TO START A CAREER WITH GENESIS, FRANK ZAPPA AUDITIONING DRUMMERS TO REPLACE CHESTER THOMPSON, AND THEN PETER STANDING STILL, TAKING A DEEP BREATH WONDERING "WHAT NOW"...

  • Hehe... Chester Thompson kind of reminds me of the Old Spice commercial guy.

  • He is trying to duplicate Gabriel's expressions. I'm not interested.

  • @adoptfromarescue Maybe here and there, but he did a damn good job. I lost interest after ABACAB.

  • Double Drumming.....oh man......it's so intence.....oooh man, double drumming all the way.....what does it mean?

  • OMG. I LOVE YOU. Thanks so much for this!!

  • Brilliant song! Like most Genesis songs but this one is exceptional!

  • I was 13, I couldn't know songs from Genesis was good or bad. I just remembered those songs made me feel how magic life could it be. And it has been. Thanks Genesis for your job. Songs to feed our soul.

  • I have been a fan since the 70's and although I feel that the band lost it's soul when PG left, this song has always been the best since. Hackett is such a master, and Banks a genius.

  • ........the instrumental part between 4.26 and 8.05 is unbelievable amazing

  • ¡¡AMO ESTA CANCIÓN Y AMO ESE ÓRGANO!! ESE HAMMOND T102 QUE YA NO VAN A TENER MÁS!! DARÍA LO QUE FUERA POR TENER UNO ASÍ!! O QUE TONY BANKS LO VUELVA A USAR!! ¿POR QUÉ DEJÓ DE USARLO PARA USAR UN ÓRGANO DE CUARTA COMO EL QUE USÓ EN EL ÚLTIMO TOUR EN 2007? ¿POR QUÉ UN BUEN DÍA DE 1980 TUVO QUE SACARLO DE SU LISTA DE TECLADOS? ESA PORQUERÍA DE PROPHET10 SONABA PERO NO SUENA COMO ESTO QUE OÍMOS ACÁ. FUE EL FINAL DE UN SONIDO ÚNICO QUE CARACTERIZABA A GENESIS DE OTROS. OJALA SALGA EN VST POR LO MENOS

  • Absolutamente maravilloso.

  • Probably my favorite Genesis tune of them all. Tony Banks plays so tasteful....

  • Comment removed

  • Genesis from my 14 ...to my 51 now, Genesis in these days.... Genesis.... proved to have left the legacy...of absolute genuine character... The feeling of their songs...the neverending discovery... create , time and time again .... the feeling of a just-discovered unfound waterfall of musical mastership...blended with life-real lyrics .... ending up with one of the purest feelings of simple sincerety and joy! For fine-tasters to enjoy! Bernard Belgium
  • Top five Genesis song..........

  • mr.steve hackett for president of Word Music ,because simply the best of Genesis member

  • Absolutely GREAT to have uploaded this video version of one of the most importants tracks of Mr. Tony Banks!!!!! Blessed music!!! Thanks!!

  • Progressive Rock at it's finest! :-)

  • This was always the best of genesis - real sound ....

  • Tony Banks for president!

  • most genious band ever

  • Oh I just could listen to the boys forever.....I have seen them 22 times and I have not seen nearly enough. I first saw them when I was 9. Thank you John my big brother for turning me on to one of the greatest collaborations to ever grace this green earth.

  • I wouldn't wanna pull a No True Scotsman here, but somebody by the name of "irondaddymac" just doesn't strike me as the biggest Genesis fan on here... ;-)

  • Phill Collins very hi

  • Mister Steve Hackett simplesmente o melhor do Gênesis membro

  • WOW !

    Nicely Done...

  • Phil could never hold a candle to Peter when it came to writing or singing

  • At this concert Phil has his best performance as a singer! It is too bad I was too young to see them live at that time. Wonderful concert!

  • Phil really works those cymbals @ 9:45

  • Stunning!!!!!!

  • Great performance. All the accessibility of the earlier days, the gentleness of voice and instruments.

  • I still get chills every time I hear this song! Glad I got to see them in 81,83 86...

  • I favour the stuff with Gabriel but 'Wind & Wuthering' has a few of my favorite Genesis songs ever. The only song I don't like is the slow dance one that was overplayed and the beginnings of Phil's romance songs. Afterglow I think it was called.

    Anyone else feel this way?

  • @TheExeter "Afterglow" was a great ending song on one of the best albums I've ever listened to. The way they went from the heavy keyboard and instrumental and slowed it down and went right into "Afterglow" was the essence of perfection for me. As a youth that song and nearly all the songs on this album had such spiritual connotations for me. I may not have understood it all, but "Your Own Special Way" always made me think of my perception of who God was.

  • @Quantanthead Wow. You really nailed it on the head. I listened to "Afterglow' after reading this and I had a flashback of my youth and it really meant alot to me back then too. It reminded me of a girl. So cool how music is like a time machine sometimes.

  • @TheExeter Thanks for your comments. Much appreciated.

  • please listen tony ! great !

  • Who is playing the guitar ?

  • @stoneroller1

    Daryl Steurmer

  • @Tommygun1028 Great sandwich.

  • @stoneroller1

    And Michael Rutherford!

  • @michaelpoplett Of course !!!and Bass !!!!

  • @stoneroller1

    darryl stuermer

  • @stoneroller1

    "Who's playing the guitar?"  "Daryl Steurmer" "Great!....Great Sandwich"

  • @stoneroller1 carlos caszely

  • Fantastic !!!!Phil is a genius on drums !!

  • ..and by the way he fell, stood up and vanished into air. Great album / lyrics

  • The story is actually very reminiscent of "The Man Who Would Be King" with Sean Connery and Michael Caine. I've always thought that Tony Banks wrote superb lyrics to this song.

  • This is just the perfection. I love it!

  • Listen ,listen ,listen,how can lyrics like this be boring ? it's a story ,thats what all great music is about

  • The whole song is fantastic!!!! Start to finish. It has so many great parts. This is the Genesis i know and love most.

  • The instrumental part of this tune is one of the highlights of Genesis' career.

  • @Topographer Absolutel. I think exactly the same.

  • well... it doesn't suck... you just have to wait 6 minutes until the good part starts... lots of old genesis tunes are like porn movies - you have to fast forward through the bullshit to get to the money shots!

  • FUCK YOU!!! Any "TRUE" Genesis fan will appreciate the music as a whole, instead of degrading it to the point of comparing it to a porno. Lemme guess... your favorite Genesis song is "I Can't Dance"? If you can't grasp the concept of the early stuff, you don't deserve the right to call yourself a fan. FUCK YOU, again!!!

  • whatever moron. take a valium. I've got all the Genesis records up to Abacab, and then they started to really suck. My fav is still Selling England by the Pound.. you wanker. Most great Genesis songs are long, like Cinema Show or Supper's ready, but those songs weren't boring. I just think this song is boring except for the middle bit.  I think Wind and Wuthering is one of their most boring records period. The songs seemed to be long for no good reason. Just my opinion so chill ape.

  • is this available anywhere?the complete show

  • Yes, on the Six Hours Live 2-DVD set mentioned at beginning of video. Website is also listed if you have any other questions send me a msg

  • great vid, collins is such a great drummer

  • Seeing this visually is a real treat. One for the Vine. Thank you Tom.

  • Marvelous. Just marvelous.

  • This sounds very similar to the Three Sides Live version.

  • This is from the Lyceum theater in London in 1980

  • I was refering to the live album Genesis put out two years later.

  • The audio on 3 sides live is way superior though...

  • i don't know if it's WAY superior but then again you're comparing an official release to a bootleg, unreleased concert. The disparity between the 2 can be big but in this case this is still a fantastic concert w/good audio that was never released.

  • @LowellDevil It is the version.

  • Phil at his best ....He could be even not compared because different from Peter but great as well as......

  • what an amazing song! a one of a kind band...

  • I wish the band would release the Lyceum Theatre shows from 1980 on CD.

  • one of the greatest songs from one of my favourite albums. thanks for sharing.

  • The "Duke" tour. Obliviously Peter would not be on this track as this was late '76. Why did Tommygun1028 mention Peter? Steve hadn't even toured with "Genesis" since '77.

  • I see no lack of quality in the Collins era what that era may mean. He was with the band from the early 70's. Sure members have left and that will change the dynamics in any endeavor. As for which era is better - well that depends who you are. I myself appreciate the effort every line-up of Genesis - yes even Calling All Stations. I'd rather they had done a few more albums with Ray Wilson then just do nothing and put out repackaged old stuff in the form of greatest hits and box sets.

  • I agree totally with you, as a matter of fact it s absolutely rigth to say that Phil was with the band from the early 70's ,and a great complement , & more than that , the support that no one could have been but him , why some "fans" live around that criticism nearly hating Phil ?... Genesis must unite our hearts, use our energy to love Genesis , as well known , Phil gave all his energy and talent and left his personal life , leading Genesis to succes ...

  • @Triplecenturies Not me! 1 Ray Wilson, or rather 1 Collins-less CD was more than enough. In fact, it was too much. I've given that CD more listens than it deserved and walked away every time unmoved, undriven, and definitely dissatisfied, something I'd never said about any previous Genesis CD, at least to this extent. Collins is categorized too much by his latter wedding rehearsal type material, and not credited enough for his early years at the helm, some of my favorite Genesis years.

  • Some of us can tolerate the "river of constant change" better than others. Most of us know that you almost always don't hit a home run you're first time at bat. One album creates a "point" the next one would have created two points, thus a better idea as to which direction the group was going. I wasn't expecting Gabriel out of Collins, thus I wouldn't expect Collins out of Wilson. It would have been nice to see where more time together would have taken Banks, Rutherford, & Wilson.

  • Dove trovare un altro artista che unisce talento autentico (grande voce con tanti cambi di tono, batteria e all'occorrenza pianoforte) e carisma sul palco come Collins? Si può discutere sulla bellezza o meno delle canzoni post-Gabriel (a me per es. da trick of the tail a duke mi piacciono molto, dopo mi sono indifferenti), ma la grandezza di collins (che pure mi dice poco come solista) nei genesis post-gabriel penso sia un fatto obiettivo

  • Pienamente d' accordo

  • dopo gabriel per un paio di album la musica è rimasta ma.. collins fa davvero orrore come cantante..

  • mah... non so
