  • Love it!

  • If your a Genesis fan and have no idea Peter Gabriel was the Lead Singer before Phil you need to be slapped immediately....

  • 4:44 is extremely bad ass and intense

  • ..the best of the best of the best.

  • Comment removed

  • ive beenj drink all day in nyc, this is inebnse

  • phil kinda ruined later on but you cant fault him for this offering

  • Great one!

  • Bill Bruford, wow, this must have been after Alan White began with YES.

  • @RADicalDownloads1 This was 1976. Yes was long gone for him and King Crimson ceased to exist in 1974 so he really had nothing else going on

  • @RADicalDownloads1 Way after actually. Bruford left Yes at the end of the Close To The Edge Sessions, at the end of 1972. He almost immediately joined King Crimson. Crimson ended the first time in mid 1974. Played with Gong for a few months at the end of 74. Did work on Chris Squire's and Steve Howe's solo albums in 75, and then joined Genesis by this tour in mid 76. Only stayed for this tour though.

  • I wonder whether the film of this show exists without those goddamned, effing titles obscuring it. If so, I want it!

  • This song is so freaking incredible, god damnit. For all you big Genesis fans, I must STRONGLY urge you, no... i IMPLORE YOU to check out the band U-Melt (or umelt, it varies). They're like the modern Genesis/Yes with lots of Zappa tweaks and then super groovey catchy stuff; its god-damn brilliant. "Tiny Giants" or "Escape" or "Panacea" would be good starts

  • @n91827 Didn't they go to private school? ;)

  • @n91827 Ive been tryibg lately to get this buddy of mine who calls himself a coniseur of fine 70 rock to get into some progressive stuff....yes, genesis, king crimson..... and ive realized some get it and some never will. Theres no converting once you are a certain age.......

  • Why bother watching and commenting if you dislike this so much?? Do you think your "wisdom" will make us who like this change our minds? "Oh yes, massa! We now see the light, we have been misguided all our lives, this music is shite. Thank you for setting us on the right path!" I don't think so. And how can music be clueless? Music is music, it doesn't have to serve a purpose, and certainly not a purpose defined by you. Go find your punk records or Lady Gaga, whatever you find meaningfull!

  • Music gentlemen..music!!!

  • Love the guest appearance by Bill Bruford. Together with Phil Collins the drums were great. Heard that in the early days Genesis and Yes were mutual fans traveling to ser each others performances.

  • seen this band 15 times,,,,,,,,, truly one of the best groups of our time

  • lies112 whats the name of this DVD? i want to buy it.

  • It's like Blade Runner gone prog.

  • 3:02 ... Another great moment of Banks, one of hundreds.

  • This is what prog rock is all about 

  • All right you lot..settle down. The fact is, anyone who appreciates the guys...get's it!

    True brilliance!!

  • @KoelngeistKoelnkanal yup Phil owns Bill Bruford on this one!

  • Steve the Master Hackett. No wonder why they went to shit when he left.

  • @corum428 How about the Invisible Touch album and tour?

  • The "There's an angel standing in the sun" line is strongly missing here.

  • @mantra3000 I guess that line was quoted from "Supper's Ready", wasn't that?

  • @SebGeddy

    Absolutely.

  • ty

  • Thank you so much for uploading the songs from this video in such stunning quality! I hope you don't mind me posting them on July 9 and 10 on the 'Duchess' FB page I'm co-administering on the occasion of the 35th anniversary of these shows.

  • i liked the squonk ending

  • Best part is 0:00 to 7:08

  • They just dont make 'em like this anymore !!!!!!! Class.

  • very very veryy niiiiiiiiceeeeee !!!! Boommmmm d++

  • man, I mean there was yes, king crimson, camel, elp, gentle giant, floyd, but for me, and even though I love all of those bands, none got to capture such magic musical moments as these guys, 4:47 comes from heaven, Genesis, you re my favourite band!

  • ok, for the guy who said they were mediocre: check out collins in brand x, steve hackett in voyage of the acolyte (ace of wands/star of sirius) or spectral mornings (everyday/title track), and mike rutherford at fountain of salmacis and banks in cinema show. If that s mediocre, then you re dumb

  • 20 Lady Gaga fans stumbled across this video by accident and were horrified by its frequent disregard for convention and insistence on superior musicianship.

  • @spliffron I heard a similar rumour about Take That fans.

  • Comment quitter une salle de concert après un truc pareil ?

  • Mediocre?  these guys were all monsters on their instruments! and the dynamics and the intricacies of the music are unmatched.

  • aaaah two of my favorite drummers..... phil and bruford......lov it!!!!!

  • great great 

  • Sounds like a song from Frank Zappa!!!! And Frank Zappa is great!!!

  • Hi everybody guys! I need to tell you this: See my cover tribute Behind the lines/duchess! One man band! enter on you tube whit this account and password: genesis.onemanband@email.it password: tributando  serch my video and clik on Behind the lines! Enjoy.

    Pino Lettieri (tributando)

  • Genesis so great! But we see the band never live on stage :-(

  • So awwww-fucking-some !

  • 5:01 "Phillip Collins"

  • The dynamics are chilling/

  • Mike Rutherford played all guitars from Then There Were Three onwards. If he was mediocre, how come that was the period where they became a supergroup? To be honest, and this may be where I let myself down, I think it was Steve Hackett who was the less talented of the two. But not by much (before I'm pilloried).

  • @TheExcelsior1 They got big because they focused on writing music that would get popular, pop music. And that generally tends to be simpler and easier for guitarists.

  • @TheExcelsior1 man I can't agree with you, hackett has such a unique sound, and had an amazing solo career, whereas rutherford even thoug he was talented, he never reached such unique beaty with his guitar, plus, and you can hear it in old genesis albums, hackett has a far more complex sound and style than him.nevertheless I respect your opinion!

  • @vasco1990 I liked your comment simply because you were not confrontational, and respect the other person's opinion. Brings to mind the old maxim by Voltaire "Sir, I may not agree with what you say, but I shall defend to the death your right to say it". At the end of the day, it doesn't matter who was better - they were all part of the Genesis sound at a specific time, and the band would not have been what they were without any of them.

  • @TheExcelsior1 As I said in response to another comment - It doesn't matter who was better than whom, the point is, they were all an integral part of the changing sound of Genesis during the specific time each person was in the band. Genesis would not be Genesis without any single one of them.

  • This music its amazing!

  • How can a musician playing in this Band being mediocre at all! - That about Rutherford being mediocre is one of the stupiest remarks on youtube - and there are many of them. So if people do not have a single clue about musicianship they should watch Baseball but do not place remarks here. 

  • Bruford and Collins together. Fantastic!

  • 4:16 onwards; there arent enough superlatives to describe this. Truly jaw dropping,spine-tingling, goosebump-inducing greatness.

  • du bon Genesis sans Gabriel ... le début de la fin du prog !

  • this is bullshit everyone knows that the best thing that came from genesis is Phil Collins solo career SU SU SU SUSSUDIO!!!!!!

  • @reaper69316 The best thing that came from Genesis is Phil Collins retirement

  • This is my favourite video on YouTube. Truly inspirational stuff. Wish I was there.

  • very good video,good lighting and the shots of Phil Collins One of the top 10 drummers I my list, and drummer for Dream Theater,ELP,etc.

  • The guitar is out of tune.

  • This song is genius. Could there be a more incredible pair of drummers than Bruford and Collins?

  • @behnkenj Yeah: Bruford and Bonham

  • @dockaiser If you said "Bruford and Pert" you might have had me. But I went back and listened to some old Zep stuff and while Bonham was damned good, he wasn't quite in same league with Collins. Say all you want about Collins' Solo Career (I hated it too in the latter years), but his drumming is some of the best in the business.

  • This song is genius.

  • Been A Big fan of Genesis since 1970,they are still the Masters even after all this time.Keep on Touring and Recording.You go from strenght to strenght,like good Wine! gets better with the passage of Time.

  • Why do we not have this nowadays? THIS is Music.

  • @litchkin Yes,indeed,its real Music.......or is it "Rael" music? Hmmm.

  • I recall reading that Steve Hackett badly cut his hand at a party when he overheard someone say that Genesis would be nothing without Peter Gabriel - he squeezed a wine glass so tightly it broke in his hand.

    Los Endos has always seemed to me to be the post Gabriel Genesis making a statement about that! Particularly on the album where Phil Collins injects a little bit of "Suppers Ready" at the end in a nod to Gabriel.

    Absolutely awesome stuff.

  • When the Squonk section at the end kicks in I get chills every time!!

  • Been with me since I was a kid this music - bloody fantastic, no other way to describe it!

  • Wow!

  • I'm I the only one who thinks Rutherford is one of the most underrated bassplayers ever? He's all over that thing! I mean, people have finally realized how great Collins, Banks and even Hackett (and how deserved is that) were/are. But you never ever hear about Rutherford - for me, he's amazing.

  • @Proglove85 i totally agree, he is excellelent, in this and other performances, and i agree he is underrated!

  • @Proglove85 Could not Agree more!He is 1st.Class.

  • @Proglove85 Yes, you probably are the only one who thinks Rutherford is underrated. He is mediocre. Now, the keyboard player and those drummers, well, that's a different kettle of fish.

  • @Proglove85 No, you're not the only one! Rutherford *is* a great bassist, and I say that as a bassist myself--and I'm no slouch at it. Spot on.

  • @Proglove85 Mike and the mechanics? He's famous. Your to dumb to realize it. (That's All)

  • @bananeskit You need to learn som English, my illiterate friend! I didn't write "nobody knows Mike Rutherford", I wrote: "Mike is an underrated bassplayer" - it's a big fucking difference... Besides, the fact that you recognise Mike from his stint with 'the Mechanics', and not as the bassplayer from one of the biggest bands the world has ever seen, says more about you than it does about me. Anyway, look up the word 'underrated', and come back to, hmmkay?

  • @Proglove85 I was just being an ass in what I succeeded.

  • @Proglove85 Maybe he had a low profile. I indeed think he was great!

    

  • @Proglove85 No one has ever underrated Rutherford.

  • @jkovert Well, I beg to differ. The man's never ever mentioned when people talk of best bass players and such. I mean, the guy is technically not as good as Claypool, or those other slapbass geniusses, but Rutherford reads the music much better. It's so subtle, but still so important for the whole Genesis sound. The bassplaying in Firth of Fifth is soooo exquisite, so in tune with the rest of the band. It's like Steve Hackett, who for me is one the best guitar player ever; underrated as hell.

  • @Proglove85 Dude, Rutherford and Hackett are in the pantheon of prog.

  • @jkovert Yeah, I know? Hence my original post... I know that Rutherford is a great bassist and I know that Hackett is a ditto guitarist - the general public however, doesn't. That's why he's underrated. Every time they make these "Best of..." lists, they're filled with the likes of Pastorius, Bruce, Claypool, Flea, and other flashy bassists. Don't get me wrong; they're great too! But I should think that Rutherford (and Waters, Wetton, for that matter) is at par with the 'Usual Suspects'...

  • @Proglove85 you're damn right : Mike is just amazing with his double bass/guitar !

  • chills from 2:15-2:30

  • @mimipipicaca this intro is really amazing!

  • @ThePetepike HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YOU ARE FUNNY!

  • pink floyd any day

  • AND HERE HACKETT TURN HIMSELF IN GOD!

  • OMG!! The memories!! Absolutely totally awesome - takes me back to my student days. Saw them live 5 times, utterly brilliant. Nothing today comes close!

  • How anyone can say modern music is better than this is beyond me. I'm 23 and was brought up on Genesis - lucky for me cos most of us "young whipper-snappers" have had to grow up with some utter crap!

    I adore Phil's drumming on this. Steve is simply awesome. Enough said.

  • @squonkynut I'm 30 and the two bands I grew up on were Genesis and Dire Straits. I wouldn't like to choose between them, but I would like to see Clapton and Knopfler from DS playing with Collins and Gabriel from Genesis.

  • 49 now...and I am still gobsmacked by their musicianship. Bands just worked harder and were more humble back in the day (although there are bands who work hard at perfecting their skills like the Kings Of Leon)...Nah - you got your money's worth with Genesis. On vinyl, and especially, LIVE!!

  • You cannot skip one note, cannot miss one beat: This is a mystical experience, "Gone to the other side..."

  • me parece que los punks tenían el oído en el culo para putear contra estas bandas eh ... ?

  • From Wikipedia: The earliest known written account of squonks comes from a book by William T Cox called Fearsome Creatures of the Lumberwoods, With a Few Desert and Mountain Beasts (1910). Mr. Cox's account is reprinted in Jorge Luis Borges' Book of Imaginary Beings (1969). The legend holds that the creature's skin is ill-fitting, and covered with warts and other blemishes, and so it hides from plain sight and spends much of its time weeping.

  • @TheKeegle I had no idea. Cool. 

  • Shit they were so good and non "dinosuric" but all good things eh???????

  • A great moment of music.

    Thanks to these artists ! beginning with Banks, 'the' sound of the group.

  • HAW HAW ...super lol ... both Phil's drumming and hair really kills!

  • also this decade of genesis was a good one and not every song with gabriel was great

  • And me, I am 57, I attended lots of concerts. The Genesis of this era is one of my best live memories.Hard, very hard to get out of that damn room when the last song played is "Los Endos"!

  • This song has squonks and volcanos in it, but still captures its own perfect melody

  • If genius exists somewhere, it must be like this.

  • Last song with Steve then the group changed direction

  • @josegasu They did a whole other album with Steve after this..see "Wind and Wuthering"

  • 6:09 Bill Is awesome, but he's such a fruit, everyone else is serious while he's skipping in a flower patch.

  • Im only 31. Ive loved Genesis since Invisible Touch album when i was 7. Los Endos is one of the ultimate live songs

  • That music will drive me crazy, or moron : i'm saturated, that's all !

  • I love Steve but his guitar and effects that i can't reach; i still love what he did with and without Genesis ! He's a classical guitarist that went to experimental sound effects !

  • how stupid good is this??

  • Ha sido el mejor grupo musical de mis tiempos. Durante mi vida de adolecente fue mi grupo favorito.Hoy a mis 56 ,los sigo escuchando y siguen siendo lo mejor .

  • wonderful instrumental 'piece'

  • We praise Hackett, Rutherford, Collins & Bruford for their fantastic contributions, but it's Tony Banks that gives Genesis it's unique sound. Banks provides the whole massive backdrop for the others to embroider. His keyboard playing is so integrated with the guitar that it often goes unnoticed. Needless to say, many of Genesis' greatest pieces were composed by Tony.

  • The audience are actually listening to the band...so cool to see.

  • bill bruford na bateria só mais um detalhe entre tantos --- muito bomdfgdggggggggggggggggggggggg­gggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg­ggggggggggggggggggggggg

  • bill bruford na bateria só mais um detalhe entre tantos --- muito bom

  • GENESIS rules!!!

  • Man!! This video MUST be and Old one!! As Collins still uses the name "Philip"!!!! Lol.

  • hell fucking yea. first off.... this song is epic.... second is what progressive genesis song isnt........(personally i cant name one that sucks, if you can please let me know)....... and third. i too am only twenty and had discovered this band, and i'm thankful that i did. true genius. not only playing music, but painting magical psychedelic landscapes with a wide array of effects, bass synth pedals (thank the heavens Taurus pedals were invented) and tony banks's amazing synth tones.

  • I love how this recording alter the pitch a bit. Almost sounds D# minor, SICK

  • Trick of the Tail is a superb album. Not a stinker on it. Auditory fun from beginning to end.

  • By "one hit wonder" I clearly was deriding them as a sell-out band. "Los Endos" being so different from the gunk they spewed out later (more Collins, less creativity). Hackett did a decent album or two as I recall. I liked Steve Hillage, Khan, Camel, etc. better at any point in time tho'.

    For those of you guys that know what I'm talking about.. try mid-1970s PFM (Premiata Forneria Marconi). Genesis folks that bent away from "sellout" material were often crazy about them (for good reason).

  • Panzer Tank... you're insightful for a 16 year old!

  • Genesis Six Hours Live 1972-1980 2DVD set, Genesis The Lamb Live at the Shrine 1975 3-disc 2CD/DVD set, Genesis Live in Montreal 1974 2CD set, Genesis Live in Zurich 1977 2CD set available at Tommygunvideo - link and more details can be found on our Youtube channel

  • Boy I admit that after Collins took the reigns Genesis went down hill but while

    Hacket and Gabirel were there it was a great band there was nothing else in the seventies but Genesis,YES AND GENTLE GIANT great music everything else was

    Bubble gum crap

  • After surveying+buying a bunch of _other_ Genesis tunes based on this youtube video, I'd have to say that Genesis was a one 'non-hit' wonder! This cut is really very good... but nothing else they did seems particularly interesting. Seems like Collins+McCartney ought to have tried the Vegas schtick together.

  • @jazzlover10000 yeah, Genesis didn't make a lot of great stuff and they weren't very well known either. I wonder why they have literally hundreds of tribute bands. Even worse: The Musical Box, the top genesis tribute band plays that uninteresting stuff in packed houses. I can't understand this. I personally prefer modern bands, at least their songs all sound the same. That's coherent!

  • @jazzlover10000 To be perfectly fair "I know what I like (in your wardrobe)" peaked at 17 on the UK Singles Chart, and the album reached #3 on the The UK Albums Chart. That song appeared on Top of the Pops, although the band itself did not. That was with Gabriel fronting the band. If you're saying that they were a no hit wonder with Collins...I'd refer you to their later material and a good therapist cause you are in some serious denial.

  • you're right-he left right after the 77 tour. steve was always a bit on the dark side, according to mike. steve called in his resignation from a pub around the corner from the studio where they were mixing "seconds out".

  • 5.52 - subime key - wonderful, takes you out of your everyday life

  • mike rutherford, center stage, assuming band leader responsibilities. everyone watched him except steve hackett, who split inexplicably a few months later during mixing sessions for the live album "seconds out". he was pretty much edited out of this film-payback.

    phil's got one big ass roto-tom above the hi-hat, or is that a timbale?

    i think bill bruford was too "busy" for tony's liking, so they compromised and invited chester thompson, ex-weather report...anyway, phil was a jazzer (brand-x).

  • @tas27100 Actually this film was released in January 1977, but Hackett didn't leave the group until later in the year.

  • @tas27100 Bill Bruford volunteered to fill on on a very temporary basis only. It was never meant to be permanent. His playing style and whole approach to music (very loose and improvisational where Genesis were very rigid) just didn't mesh.

  • @tas27100 Bill Bruford volunteered to fill on on a very temporary basis only. It was never meant to be permanent. His playing style and whole approach to music (very loose and improvisational where Genesis were very rigid) just didn't mesh.

  • this is hands down the greatest genesis instrumental there is. no if ands or buts

  • This is so Brand Xish, when they were good they were just so...........

    percussion to melt yer socks.

  • Brufford & CollinsTWOGETHER 2 of kind in Progressive music...

  • Oh god. Ear orgasm. Hngh.

  • I'm 41, and I discovered Genesis around 1983, but it's their 70's output that blows me away. This has to be one of the greatest prog rock instrumentals ever composed. Prog needs to come back, big time! Note, to all musicians, under 30 out there. Form prog rock bands! Forget being 'cool' Cool people are dull.

  • @WarrenCromartie2 im trying to but all i can find are a bunch of fucking metal heads

  • @boibad12 Introduce them to prog rock gently. Start with Dream Theater and Opeth, until they realise there's more to music than screaming in anger about your 'tortured soul' at 150bpm ;-)

  • @WarrenCromartie2 Prog is back man. Transatlantic are touring this year. That is an all stars Prog band at the same level of the best prog bands we learned to love while growing up. And like them, there are others. You just need to give 'em a chance.

  • @vivelavidarocka It is more popular now than it was say 15 years ago. I know Transatlantic. Great band, same goes for Opeth, Porcupine Tree, The Mars Volta et al. But these are men who have been round for some years. I want to see a young 'twenty something' band burst on to the scene, in an explosion of progness, and shake up the mainstream :-0 BTW, if you haven't already, check out a UK band called Tinyfish. They're going to be big in prog circles!

  • @WarrenCromartie2 Ok, then you are right, not too many twenty something Prog bands starting now. Maybe three or four come to mind: Elephant9, Norway / fusion, North Atlantic Oscillation , Scotland / Prog, Beardfish, Sweden / Prog and Bears in Heaven from here, NYC Neo Prog. Yeah most of our twenty something go and do other "cooler stuff" or on the best cases Post-Rock (which I also like). I'll listen Tinyfish. Peace dude.

  • @vivelavidarocka

    God Speed You! Black Emporer is awesome.

  • @767fife Agreed, with Explosions in the Sky and Mogway my fav post rock bands.

  • @WarrenCromartie2 I'm not really to much into Prog metal. I just consider it to be Good, Intelligent metal. :7)

  • @vivelavidarocka Yep! That's pretty much where I stand on prog metal. I've seen DT and Opeth live, and they are pretty damn good, but you can't beat the classic prog bands.

  • I was there ! 51 now but I still remember that night - gobsmacked and beyond, witnessed true genius and will NEVER forget it.

  • @raver4lyfepb I'm jealous! I'm just pleased they released this footage on the 'Trick of the Tail' re-master :-)

  • @raver4lyfepb where was this one filmed? love it!!!

  • @raver4lyfepb You are lucky to has been there

  • @raver4lyfepb Bill Bruford, the greatest of them all!

  • @raver4lyfepb You are 1 and never have been were the greatest rock musicians performed. When I visit your site, I saw a confirme beauty clon under the title " hard rock heaven " ???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What´s up with you!?

  • @raver4lyfepb How I envy thee. If only I were about 20 years older...

  • @raver4lyfepb

    only difference between you and me???? I'm 52 now. If you EVER get the chance, the best next thing to this is if you get to see The Musical Box on tour. World renowned exact recreation.

  • @raver4lyfepb  Was this clip filmed in Glasgow or Bingley Hall, Stafford? I was at the Bingley hall show, July 10th 1976 and will NEVER forget it either.... totally magical!
