Just came across this cover. Matt-Man has a lot of talent. Couldn't tell the difference between Tony and Matt. Dawg got talent.

A quick note/question/comment about the verse progression: is that really all he's playing? In the studio version and every live version I hear more bass notes in them (ie when it goes from F-C-Dm, there's a distinct piano voice at the bottom going F2-E2-D2) and an overall wider spread in the voicings. Have you looked into that? Am I hearing more in the isolated track than what's there, or is it actually played differently than in this video? Great work as always.

9:30 this sounds like the Rugrats theme

I wish Behringer would make a Pro-Soloist clone.

I would buy this in a heartbeat!

Hey Matt, are there any effects on the MKII Brass??

You really nailed the keyboard parts and sounds on your band's Duke performance. That record is my personal favorite Genesis album.

Love your Genesis covers and gear rundowns. Question, would you ever be open to maybe showing if the Prophet 10 can get a convincing RMI 368 sound? I know buying a Prophet would be way more expensive, but finding a 368 or 368X on the secondhand market is difficult at best. For the same reason I was pleased to see you demo some of the Pro Soloist sounds on the Behringer 2600 as I would much rather buy that than spend 4x as much on an a vintage preset synth with limited features, assuming one would even be available. Besides that, the Hammond and Mellotron are easily available new.

Mr.Banks would be extremely proud of your rendition of his magnum opus Supper's Ready, you are brilliant, perfect in every way, thank you for sharing.👍😎

Nice to hear a real RMI on this! Yours looks in great condition too. Did you consider sticking the pedals just to the casing? I think on the Selling tour, Tony still had the Fender just sitting on top of it. Regarding the Fender Blender, I think you got the 4 knob re-issue from the 90ies? As an anecdote: the circuit of those is actually not like the originals. Apparently when they were making the Kevin Shields edition, Kevin pointed out that it just didn't sound like the original he had. After then comparing the circuit to the one from Kevin, Fender found out that they got the circuit wrong and they corrected it in the Shields Blender (plus adding additional controls). Regarding the Lamb: in principle the composition is so that it starts faster and then there is a ritartando to drop the tempo when the band comes in. It's just that I find that Tony often is a bit sloppy there. Sometimes he gets the "difficult run" wrong, and during the bridge it often is the case that Tony and Phil (or Peter) get out of sync and either one of the two tries to compensate. Always has been the case. I think it's also why they cut the intro section from Carpet Crawlers and at some point they started with piano and hi-hat so that the tempo gets more locked (well actually, they added a bass part to it too at the last 2 tours so that was on tape). I assume you love the Neo Ventilator as rotary speaker? Im considering one (and maybe get a real Hammond T). It's also funny that things which in principle are not so complicated are far more complex to pull off in a band setting. I like that you share your experiences there, many people don't know that it's not a matter of just knowing your part and off you go. I learned that the hard way in my teens when I started all of this. Playing with others around you is complex.

Brilliant!

Magico! 👏👏👏👏👏

The 2600 is one of my favorite parts of A Trick of The Tail, Wind & Wuthering, and And Then There Were Three. I especially love that Tony even brought the 2600 on the 1978 tour; those lead lines on the soundboards and bootleg recordings absolutely soar! Very much hope to see a 1978 tour recreation in the future!

Wow! Great job.

Hi Matt! Your videos are of great help and insight for us Genesis TB keyboard fans. Thanks a ton! Cherry Audio’s site for Quadra mentions to have emulated the 14-stage phase shifter in theirs, together with several enhancements. Not sure if they’re referring to the previous version or not, but the update of their notes is from September 23rd 2024. Maybe they fixed it. I’m looking for a plug-in to make the Genesis Quadra sounds, and seeking for the best choice.

Boss has a new space echo.

❤

Yes Matt, OVERDUBS VIDEO!!! Wee!!! Would love that.

Magnificent 👏👏

Bravo... Me la sono cantata tutta... per una volta non l'ho fatto io il tastierista😂❤

You are doing an outstanding job, congratulations!

Now that you have separated it from its grouping I can hear a lot of Celtic influence. Sincerely well done Matt. Very well played my super maestro who yet unlocks a door for us all. What a guy Tony is. Totally underrated in any form. Thank you again Matt! 🥇

Matt you are a superb guy! Hopefully this will not be the last we hear from you in 2024! Please be well bro. Thank you so much.

Any suggestions as to what pedal or software in 2024 could produce that wonderful HiFly phase shift modulation at 7.28 and 7.58? I have neither the time, money or inclination to add myself to the current HiFly waiting list (!) so if there's anything that the knowledgeable folk who've commented could recommend I'd be very grateful. Thanks!

merry Christmas Matt 🎹💖🌠

Your channel for me has been the "revelation" of 2024, so really thank you!!

Any full videos of each song? even paid ones ?

Can't wait to hear the Mama stuff!

How much longer will you guys be doing the trick tour? I gotta catch it!

for a second in the thumbnail I thought you were Brian Eno working on the lamb

Here’s the Lamb track: sonicelements.bandcamp.com/album/it-a-celebration-of-the-lamb-lies-down-on-broadway

I've seen this band twice in the Buffalo Ny area. They are very very good and worth seeing

Oh that Xanadu solo sounded beautiful! (And yes, the Minimoog is better than the Pro Soloist, and also better than the Odyssey)

Wow, that all sounds great! Would love to see studio track demos/tutorials. Yes, please - All In a Mouse's Night.

Congrats Matt on your contribution to Dave's Lamb tribute. That is so soooo awesome!! I can't speak for many but I personally would LOVE for you to do a 1981 video of Firth of Fifth as Abacab and Three Sides Live are my favourite tours. Is there a chance you and your band will do a Lamb tour for it's 50th?? At least you have the equipment. I am getting that LM Drum. Great time to be a Genesis fan...as are all times.

Wooooo looking forward to the new year 🎉🎉 (and no a minimoog is not better then a soloist 😉)

This is awesome! Special shoutout to the outstanding vocalist hitting some pretty challenging notes…bravo gentlemen! 👏👏👏

This is brilliant!!!

Bravo Master Merci so good and the sound wowwww.

Saw you all in Pittsburgh (Trick of the Tale tour) this year and Greensburg (1980 Duke tour) 2 years ago. I'm so glad you folks are recreating these live shows. This great music needs to live on and you guys play in fantastically. Both great shows. My faves of the last 5-10 year.

Amazing!

Sounds really good. I like the vocoder. Too bad ya'll don't have plans to play in the Los Angeles area. Best.

It sounds like a mix between 1980 Genesis and Steve Hackett Band (the singer reminds me of Steve's singer/drummer). It makes me imagine what if Genesis would sound like this in 2007. Also, December 18th is an special date for me: I'm from Argentina, and that day in 2022, Argentina's football selection won their third World Cup against France in an epic match. Also, I happen to have a friend family which birthday is December 18th. So have this video premiered that day is very special for me.

🤩🤩🤩

I'm seeing you guys in January in Ridgefield, CT

I would pay to see this.

Question about the Archive #2 released recording (Lyceum 1980); I could swear that there was vocoder chorus happening during the middle section. Was that an overdub after the fact (and if not, where's it coming from)?

Is that a hohner pianet? 😮
