@RVCastel this was on Steve Hackett's 1996 tour, where he was supported by John Wetton and Ian McDonald. They played a lot of Genesis stuff and some KC as well :)
Never Heard this version before,,,, And I thought before I listened: hard to imagine this tune without Greg Lake... JW does an excellent cover though.... Not GL but I'm buying it! Thanks for the share =)
Like the hacket influence in this too,,,, Any clue as to when the Video was shot? I'd assume a good deal more recently than 69
Well I think this is an amazing 'cover' and brings in a whole new audience for this prog masterpiece. Love Hackett's subtle textures - worth the entry ticket for the gig alone; Ian McDonalds's flute solo(s) are sheer perfection. Vocals and harmonies are spot on. So for me its a totally amazing performance and projects exactly what progressive rock is all about.
This is a very nice cover of a song from one of the greatest records ever made. I say "cover" because, even though Ian McDonald played on the original, the rest of this group does a good job, but doesn't capture the magic. Whoever this drummer is just plays it straight and doesn't even attempt the delicate intricacies Michael Giles played.
now wetton should sing epitaph and moonchild

Sorry. Greg Lake's vocals just cannot be replaced on this song. There is no comparison.
