Well you guys were right, this was amazing. Hands down my favorite Genesis song so far. The piano in this song was NUTS! Piano was the first instrument I learned as a kid and I will always have a soft spot for some good piano. And the drumming was fantastic as well! This song was just mind bending and lovingly nostalgic at the same time. As I always say… so ahead of their time.

This was so, so good. I guess I’m tackling Suppers Ready next? 😅

@lesblatnyak5947 Год назад

Great idea a brilliant symphonic prog masterpiece Suppers Ready is. However the greatest prog masterpiece is called Close To The Edge by Yes which is just one of 7 symphonic pieces. Enjoy your prog journey. 🙏🍁

That would be AWESOME! Supper's Ready and it's album Foxtrot has been my all time favourites since more than 46 years 😁 (BTW, Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth was one of the featured vocalists on original Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett's rendition of Supper's Ready and Steven Wilson did guitar features on another song originally from the same album - Can-Utility and the Coastliners)

Supper's Ready Will grab You at 1st. Then Lure You in, make You Think wtf ? - Then at The End. You'll Never Forget It Brother .... Great Reviews on the Genesis Tracks ..... Another 'Genesis Sound' is Their Middle Years, Album's - "A Trick of the Tail" and "Wind and Wuthering" with 4 of the bands Original Lineup. This Album and '"Watcher of the Skies"' Albums had 5 in the Lineup. Peter Gabriel Lead Vocal, and Steve Hackett Lead Guitar ..... Who Also did those middle years albums i mentioned.

Mike is such an underrated but talented guitarist & writer. Everybody raves about Steve's solo in this song, but very few people know that Mike had to teach Steve how to play 12 string (not used here). Once Steve left, Mike (like Phil) just stepped up into the new role, & happily shared the lead/bass role with Daryl in live shows, just like Phil & Chester on drums

@L33Reacts I play bass, so I'm interested in rhythms and melody, and how drummers hear music. Talking of which, check out Bill Bruford on the track In The Dead Of Night by his band UK from 1978. It'll take the paint off your walls.

@garysexton8840 9 месяцев назад

My favorite Genesis song. Have you checked out the music of Jethro Tull? They are unique in their music which features the flute as a rock instrument played by Ian Anderson who was self taught. They started as a blues oriented band with their first album This Was and followed with the album Stand Up which was different because the original guitar player was strictly blues and didn’t agree with Ian’s musical direction. Anyway start with Stand Up and continue with each subsequent album and you will see how they evolved through the 70’s. An album a year to 1980. No two albums are alike and all are great. I await your investigation of this band’s music. You will be amazed

It is an interesting task understanding each of those giants in the 70's prog world, as the overall label of prog does not explain what makes Genesis different from Yes, or Yes different from King Crimson, or Jethro Tull different from ELP. They are all considered Prog bands but they are very clearly different bands with a unique style that makes them one of kind and excellent in their own way. I never get into the best prog band statements as I've never figured out how to measure art. I can say which band I listen to the most but that's everything to do with me and nothing to do with which band is the greatest. Is one of them the greatest?

The album as a whole is a commentary on the effects of consumerism, dissolution of British idealism, loss of cultural identity, and the big bad American influence on English life. You could say that this song "Firth of Fifth" is just a commentary on British culture, their ties as a nation to the sea, and the change that comes with it like the tides and flowing rivers of a nation whose destiny was and still is tied to these very waters. Then again, it's just a song about a river ... The first song on the album hits these points hard although it's hard to understand as an American since a lot of what's mentioned in the lyrics is based on British Cuture. For instance, the lyric "Knights of the Green shield stamp and shout" is reference to "points" consumers would get in the form of stamps they could attach to a booklet and turn in for discounts on items in the store. The album is a masterpiece and very tongue in cheek about the points I made earlier about consumerism and English values.

I missed that you’d done this. Music as always well above par, the theme from my point of view is the destruction of nature in the name of progress: blots on the landscape are likened to cancer growths. The “river of constant change” lyric reflects this without judgement. Title is a reference to the Firth of Forth, a famous river in the north (possibly Scotland). Maybe it was being ravaged by human hands in 1973?

You need to check Echoes by Pink Floyd. Pompeii live

Your right, there is something mystic in their sound. 5 very creative minds at their best in a time that all was possible. You can name this Art, why not, it stands on its own, great stuff. In the mid seventies they were probably one of the best live bands in the world, but only the fans knew. A mentioning: let's not forget that Phil Collins was a fantastic drummer. Boy he could hit those toms.

That’s amazing man. Your absolutely right, right place perfect time. They all were destined to do this for sure. I’m glad I got to experience this! So much fun.

@@L33Reacts Great to see somebody from another time capsule enjoying the specialness of this group. Keep investigate them, such a fabulous body of work they have.

If you like early Genesis, you should check out the Genesis tribute band, The Musical Box. They play early Genesis music/shows with Peter Gabriel-era costumes, props, lights, and projections. I have been to 2 of their concerts so far. Amazing!

So, since nobody as far as I can see told you what year this was: 1973, they were 22-23 years old. Tony Banks composed this one. I think you, as a drummer, would appreciate most of their music, but check out the opener on this album (Dancing With The Moonlit Knight), and the opener on Trick Of The Tail, Dance On A Volcano, if you haven't heard them already of course.

@lashedbutnotleashed1984 Год назад

Rutherford helped with the composition on this one. And of course Gabriel wrote the lyrics.

@L33Reacts Год назад

They were HOW old? Seriously! That’s insane! This is an amazing composition. They killed it! I love this song so much already. Thank you for the info!

Listen to Skuank from Seconds Out! My favorite.

@jamesizbicki959 Год назад

Also try Dance with the moon lit knight from the same album around 73

@larrycable1827 Год назад

Best track for Hackett and Rutherford. Every track is Tonys. For Phil, you should listen to Cinema show, which must be the live version , though, from the seconds out album. You won't regret it.

You know the biggest crime in reacting to "In the air tonight" is talking over (or pausing) Phil's "drum drop"? Well, the biggest crime in reacting to "Firth of Fifth" is to talk over Steve Hackett's guitar solo.....!! Tony Banks, who wrote this song, wanted Peter Gabriel to play it on the flute, but Phil Collins said it would be better if Steve Hackett played it on the guitar. The rest is history.
