  • hey guys please welcome my cover!

    "Duke's travels cover by pino lettieri" one man band style for a greats song!

    Enjoy and diffuse!

    T you

    Pino

  • nice, to see phil collins so full of energy

  • This reminds me of hanging out in Dondee's, The bartender Ira loved Genesis! Good times...younger day...

  • To anyone who thinks genesis were not musically complex after hackett left, this was a commerically successful pop song written with verses that vary between 6/8 and 7/8, with some 5/4 bits thrown in, along with standard timing. Genesis were great, no matter what the lineup was

  • I`m not a die-hard Genesis fan but I like a lot of their songs and this one stands out. To me it represents the perfect blending of Prog Rock & Pop Rock, the transition Genesis was going through during that period in their career. Besides it`s a major classic.

  • who give's a DAMM about justin Bieber I DONT!!!! he sucks A_ _ !!!!!

  • 5 justin bieber disliked this

  • love this song!

  • I had a question for Genesis fans.

    Are there any songs which feature Rutherford or Banks very prominently on backing vocals? I mean it's quite easy to place Phil's voice on early records, but I can never seem to recognise the others. I've listened to Banks' 'The Fugitive' so I know how he sounds, but like I said, I can never seem to pick him or Mike out on recordings.

  • @JeauxBand You can hear Mike easily at Mike +the Mechanics,and I think in son of mine you can hear him saying "no son of mine"

  • @JeauxBand If you listen to Carpet Crawlers, Tony has the higher harmony. And if you really want a treat, search YT for "Shepard". Peter Gabriel and Tony exchanged lead vocals on that one. Also, I don't think Tony sang much if any backup during the IT tour, so you can hear Mike as there are several songs where he is the only backup.

  • c'est super, c'est l'époque de ma jeunesse! J'adore mais je préférais Peter Gabriel

  • @domiroxy7

    J'ai connu Génésis a 16 ans;à présent j'en ai 48!! Peter Gabriel se croyait "indispensable" à Génésis.J'aime ce que fait Peter mais le groupe a réussi à évoluer sans son leader charismatique! Et quel chemin parcouru.Mes plus belles années...

  • Can someone upload the official video? The YT Nazis deleted it.

  • @greghol Buy the video show. You can get it for 10 bucks at Amazon.com.

  • what happened to the video of this song that MTV used in its heyday. It's the one from the from the 3 sides live album. This vid is close, but if i remember right, phil is shirtless and he does a lot of that strange gesticulation. Its my favorite version of this song and I cannot find it.

  • how i wish to see a genesis reunion (see what was the yes one...)

  • they sound great but it's not the same seeing him sing out front instead of behind the symbols

  • Another classic Genesis song!

  • The very best of prog rock. Amazing time signature movement: 4/4/, 5/4, 6/4, 7/4. Collins' vocals moving over and against the instrumental accompaniment. Great!

  • @didymus46 Excellent comment, you evidently have a good knowledge of Prog Rock. ; )

  • what what WHAT?! (Doctor Who inflection) - Phil Collins used to be NOT BORING?

  • @bamboosa What, is that some kind of a joke?

  • Summer of '76, freshman at the Univ of Washington. Heard Genesis for the first time.......................gre­at memories!

  • Really cool time changes; lots of surprises and unexpected progressions. Thanks for posting this fine version

  • This takes me back...I had heard "Turn It On Again" a few times on FM radio...didn't know the song/band until I saw the original(?) video -- 1 big thanks to MTV for that...purchased Duke perhaps the next day!

    I was happy for the group and their success in the 80's. Every album had @least a few gems, but I wouldn't have loved this band so much based on their output that decade. Yes is great, but The Lamb and Foxtrot broke the "tie" in favor of Genesis.

    This is great; thanks Tommygun1028!

  • The audience seem to be having a little too much fun there

  • immortal.

  • Even though I've never seen them live...it's almost like being there. Thank you!

  • Wow, what a powerful (angry?) performance! Well done, Mr. Collins. Cheers!

  • how can yousay the second side of abacab is weak?isn't dodo/lurker , another record on side two?personally think abacab is brilliant,not quite as good as duke.after that they had about five great songs on the next three albums combined(not including three sides live) peace

  • Agreed - Dodo/Lurker is still one of my favourite Genesis tracks... "Meanwhile, lurking by a stone in the mud, two eyes looked to see what I was. Then something spoke, and this is what it said to me... brilliant

  • look at that beard

  • Never thought when this came out that this song could made it throu the years and it very well did ! Still feel good to listen to it.

  • Your collection of Genesis material is awesome!

  • Thanks!

  • superb !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • I like the way Phil dashes off at the 4:11 mark :)

  • ¿ London 1980 ?

  • yes - read the video description box

  • i like this song, but i like the origional version better.

  • The lighting on this is horrible.

  • Lighting? Really? I know what you mean, but I'm just happy for the vid! Every time I fave it, it get's pulled x3

  • Adjust your computer. It likes fine on TV. I have this concert on DVD.

  • 3 sides live, I just love this version of Turn it On Again, except Phil's voice cracks and the tempo is not as fast as the album version.

  • Ever had someone turning your breath off? In a playgrounds game? And for seconds you fainted? SO?

    Ever had a systhem laughing atyou ,manipulating you,blocking your whole existance?

    In a democratic belgium?

    TIDE is two ways !

    Allways!

  • This song epitomizes "sycopation" . I mean, do you know any other songs that have so many off-beat changes? Love it.

  • Tommygun, how about putting it up just because it's a brilliant pop song?

    You know there's nothing wrong with well-written pop gems,

  • Lol I was at this gig. I took a few photos. I hid my camera and lenses in my trench coat pockets. I cut the lining so the equipment fell to the bottom of the coat so the bouncers only checked as far as the top of the pockets. Fucking Genius or what.

    A bouncer inside told me to stop taking photos...yeah right. So I just walked around the other side of the hall...silly bouncer.

  • how did the photos turn out?? Do you still have them?

  • Yep still have the photos.

  • Ther is no doubt that 'Duke' is their best album as a trio. It's almost a masterpiece. Abacab could have been also, if side two hadn't been so weak. I adore side 1 and can play it all the way through anytime, but all direction goes on the second. A great shame. Losing Hackett was always a bigger loss than Gabriel - no doubt. He must still be miffed that 'Inside & Out' was not put on 'Wind & Wuthering'. A true gem. Oh... the what if's..?

  • Great performance. One of Genesis' best pop songs. Although the transition from prog to pop probably started with 'Trick', it wasn't until Duke where they successfully mastered writing pop songs and finally were getting the financial success they so deserved. Duke was an incredible album and the tour was equally as incredible. Brilliant!

  • wow they really tore it up here. phil getting behind the drums was awesome, it REALLY gave the song an interesting feel. i liked it. that was great, thanks for posting this. :) this band makes me so happy.

  • I definately agree the music of the Gabriel/Hackett-era is mostly unknown for most of the younger Genesis-fans, but I strongly disagree on the mainstream opinion that "Genesis wasn't Genesis anymore when Gabriel and Hackett left". Personally I feel the same about both the Collins- and Gabriel/Hackett-eras: Different, but equally brilliant music!

    All live-material on this DVD-set is GREAT, so everyone should definately get themselves a copy and see what the blokes did in their early years!

  • I'm one of those 'younger' fans who grew up with the 3-piece era of Genesis, but am not unfamiliar with early Genesis. Although I lean more to the 76-92 era w/ PC, I love a lot of their early music as well, especially Tony's songs and Supper's Ready. They were a great band from beginning to end with the exception of CAS, which IMO was terrible. Love both PC's and PG's solo work and there isn't a Genesis, PC or PG album or video I don't own.

  • CAS is definately their worst album. In probably everyones opinion. (Or am I wrong?)

  • @jobvink i agree 100% (and i say this as a massive hackett fan) because the heart of genesis was, is and always will be tony banks.

  • Since ABACAB...I did'nt understand Genesis anymore...and so I left them.

    Only years later, I picked up and discoverd a total new Era of Quality I wasn't ready for then...

    Bernard

  • OMG - I was there! Thanks for the memory!!!

  • What a wonderful performance.

  • qwerty

  • Once The Knife... The Fountain of Salamcis...Foxtrot ..Nursery Crime..Wind and Wuthering,..I Pass a lot .. then Duke.. And then they were 3 ...ABACAB...and when you neary left the sound they stood up : TURN IT ON AGAIN!

    ALIVE WITH YOUR LIFE in this neverending rock and roll spindle!! You buy a SAAB for life you have genesis in your blood all the same!LIVEMUSIC!Bernard

  • I love when Phil ends the song behind the drum kit...

  • GRAN TEMA DE GENESIS

  • gracias peter por irte, genesis es lo que es gracias a phil no hay dudas phil phil phil phil phil phil phil

  • pop????

  • love that bit at the start bass- dom dom dom dom dom, keys/guitar - da da da daaa daaa da / da da da daaa daaa daaa daaa band DADA. Thats it just sing along. great track one of the best theres so many.

  • the concert is available as a single DVD "Genesis - In London". I bought it for a ridiculous 4.99EUR in a german "Zweitausendeins" store. lol, what a bargain! only two flaws: 1. mono audio, 2. "say it's allright joe" is quite boring ;)

    @4oust:

    lol, thank you - ranks among the best comments ever. :) dom dom dom dom! :)

  • Thank you Roman, there sound is so Amazing love when phill jumps on the drums and the ending is so cool. peace

  • I agree that this is a gem among the Genesis catalogue. Someone should put this in a movie.

  • nice video from an amazing concert

  • This is a pretty sweet performance of Turn It On Again.  Certainly different seeing Phil sing it with a full beard AND a Hawaiian! Thanks for putting it up.

  • The signature Genesis tune! Thanks for uploading.

  • no the carpet crawlers

  • Well, "Firth of Fifth", actually!

  • I think Firth of Fifth is their best, probably my fav song of all time BUT carpet cralwers is the one at genesis lie when you go "Oh my god they're not...oh my god they are" know what i mean like ree chee?

  • "Firth of Fifth" is my favourite Genesis song too. I know what you mean and I agree. But there are other tracks like that as well. I do quite like "Carpet Crawlers" but I prefer songs such as "I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)", "Entangled" and "The Battle of Epping Forest".

  • Duke was a great rock album. Proge rock may bev great, but Duke was also. After Duke, Mama was good. But not much to mention after that

  • Duke actually has a lot of progressive elements to it, though not as trippy as the "early" Genesis; I consider "Behind The Lines" (the intro), "Cul-de-sac", and of course "Duke's Travels / Duke's End" like prog-rock. IMHO it's the best album the guys made as a trio.

  • "it's the best album the guys made as a trio"

    DITTO!

    Duchess is my favorite song from the album

  • GENESIS is second greatest band right behind Kevin Cronin led Reo Speedwagon.

    TOMMYGUN: thanks for great video:)

  • i don't agree on reo speedwagon, but concerning genesis there's some truth in this. when I get asked which band I thought was the best of all, many come to mind - van halen, tribal tech, mahavishnu orchestra, ohm, motorhead, ... but ultimately, after some thinking, only genesis remains. lol :)

  • ^^^STOP IT! Not the thanking Tommy, da main man!

  • I remember this Tommy. The first time they came to Br was without PG and SH...Great show but...never will be the same....

    Valeu pelo vídeo!

    Thanks for this vídeo!

  • Thanks for posting this, I can't wait to get the dvd! Genesis...the best band ever!!!!!
