Recording comments
I have the 'touched up" version of this show. Here is an extract of the notes which came with it: The original SHN's were quite hissy and had gaps between the tracks. They were converted to WAV using mkwACT 0.96f; then merged using Audio Cleaning Lab 3.0.; gaps were removed using WaveLab Lite. Dehissing and other slight restorations were performed using Pinnacle Clean. The wav was recut to individual tracks using ACL(slight modifications made again using PC). Converted SHN using mkwACT.

Show memories
My first and only Gabriel-period show. I was in London on a school inter-session and spotted the ad in Melody Maker. My seat was in the balcony a couple of rows back, just right of center: perfect seats for the spectactle to which I was treated, surrounded by a clearly rapt & worshiping crowd. I knew about the costumes of course: (Genesis were MY band at the time, IYKWIM. I played SEBTP relentlessly on my radio show, and immediately bought a british pressing of the LP upon arriving in England!) So here they were in all their glory: The Watcher, Brittania, the old man of TMB. I remember being absolutely blown away by "The Cinema Show" and then knocked breathless in turn by FOF. "Harold The Barrel" was greeted with obvious delight by the audience. Here was Steve to play "Horizons" and then out comes Phil to join him for "More Fool Me" (which was lovely!); I even enjoyed "Epping Forest" which had never been a big favorite from Selling England. But most of all, I will never forget "Supper's Ready" - 'a flower?', the amazing Apocalypse in 9/8 and then, suddenly casting off his cape, here's Peter being hoisted to the ceiling in his silver lame suite at the end to take us to the New Jerusalem! An amazing show -- can't believe it was thirty years ago this year! [lovesick_alien]
