"Dancing with the Moonlit Knight" by GENESIS -- Drummer reacts!

[@davidbarker77]

Phil Collins is an amazing drummer. It's fun just focusing on the drums on this album. Great review.

[@Joemartin-g5b]

Best ever. His feel and technique is un parallel ed

[@scottrogers2995]

He plays so well with what seems like very little effort. That's how good he was.

[@spazimdam]

This is the song that turned me on to Genesis. The summer when I turned 17 my family was on vacation in San Fransisco and I was in a record store and they were playing this album. As soon as I heard that infectious slamming groove after Peter sings "Dancing out with the moonlit knight/ knights of the green shield stamp and shout" I was hooked. I went up to the record guy and was like "what is this man?" He says Genesis. I bought the album right then and there. When I got home I played this album a lot. I thought my God how could a band be this good? Lee you're exactly right about how they all just play perfectly off of each other in sync and it just sounds so good. Amen brother. This track really shows each member at their best. They come together so well it's sublime. Every instrument is doing amazingly pleasant things and Peter's vocals just shine. In fact, Peter Gabriel mostly wrote this song : he wrote a series of "riffs" on the piano which make up the main melody and then wrote these insanely good lyrics. And then Tony and Steve and Mike and Phil wrote these insane instrumental poems within the song. Phil Collins is an amazingly tasteful and proficient drummer. Thank you for doing this Lee. I know it's like over a year late, and I've been watching your channel for months now, but for some reason KZbin didn't show me this early Genesis stuff, and I've even searched your videos looking for various things and never saw these Genesis songs until just the other day. This was extra fun to share with you man. Hearing you talk I feel like you are a child of the 70s, that you resonate with the expansive creative culture we had then. But we persevere in the 21st century. Cheers!!

Phil was incredible on so many levels - amazing groove and feel - amazing complexity, accents and fills - endlessly inventive (and so young and so far back in time!!!) - but always serving the music impeccably - and then his grace notes and light touch feather-effects - just incredible, and as you say, they all are, in unity of spirit. I wonder how this could even have happened. We're so lucky to have this music. Thanks so much for the great reaction.

_"Their music makes me so nostalgic for a time I wasn't even alive in..."_ Nice, I like that! Old music is like a book of audio feelings, left behind for all to thumb through and learn how it felt to be alive back then. In this case, 1973, London, as incredible musicians accompany a mad genius, in costume, telling stories of even older times! I envy anyone who witnessed this! I had to settle for 3 years later, without Gabriel. That's ok, Gabriel solo was pretty amazing, too! ;-]

SEBTP album was released in early Oct '73, I saw them later that same month, in Bournemouth, England. The show started with Watcher of the Skies, from Foxtrot, followed by this, and several more tracks from SEBTP, and the closer was Supper's Ready. It was over 50 years ago but I remember it like it was yesterday - the single greatest live show I ever saw. A M A Z I N G!!!!!! ❤🤩😮😃😘

Phil Collins' drumming is SO orchestral on this song! I'm guessing he wrote charts for that because, my gosh, it was so perfectly played! Plus, Steve Hackett's guitar work is so innovative and red hot! Great tapping work, well before Eddie Van Halen came along! Great, classic Prog Rock!

[@murraybartley4467]

I get the nostalgic feeling as well...even though i lived through that period...but even listening to Genesis back in the 70's I'd get the feeling of nostalgia. Yes...inspiration. They were one of the most inspirational bands that ever existed. The amount of talent in the band was astounding. So much of their catalogue is of the highest quality and the some of the most beautiful music the world has ever heard from a rock band. Far greater than the sum of the parts. ...and the reason i play keyboards, guitar, bass and drums.

Peter’s a capella is such a ballsy way to start an album! Their most British album ever and such a gem. Every band member is on his a-game. You should definitely listen to ‘Lillywhite Lilly/The Waiting Room’ from The Lamd Lies Down on Broadway; the whole band just goes nuts.

[@dougietamson]

The sung intro is full of nostalgia for a bygone time, 'Can you tell me where my country lies... it lies with me cried the queen of maybe, for her merchandise she traded in his prize' there's the f'ing sell out right there. The album has some politics too, for its time, an American won't get the cultural references hidden in Pete's writing. The soothing ending is totally needed as a come down after so we can catch our breath.

Once or twice a year I always return to seventies Genesis. In this song the drummer is holding it together nog mather what. Phil Collins was huge in the eighties as a solo artist but in fact is often overseen as a tremendous and innovative drummer. And yeah your right, this music is nostalgic in every way. The full Genesis albums are perfect escapes from modern realities. Especially at rainy sunday mornings. Their catalogue is a fantastic milestone in prog and beyond.

Yes, The Lamb should be played in its entirety. It is my favorite album and is a work of genius. Peter's story and lyrics are so clever. I hope you are able to listen to the whole album, but a little background helps to digest it. There is a cool animated version with lyrics created by a dedicated, knowledgeable Genesis fan. The album has been the subject of several PH.D. theses and there are several Web sites dedicated to it, foremost of which is the amazing The Annotated Lamb. After this masterpiece, it was inevitable that Peter would leave to explore his many interests.

Bill Bruford played with Phil Collins and Genesis during their 1976 tour... Their drumming together was quite stunning... Only one tour... then Chester Thompson took over tour duties to play with Phil. Collins is one of the truly great drummers. He's played jazz (Brand X), prog (Genesis), heavy (played with Led Zeppelin for Live Aid show) and funk (Earth, Wind & Fire horns)... Pop (later Genesis, and the lead singer of Abba, Frida).. and avant garde (Peter Gabriel's 3rd album... which was ground-breaking). The Lamb would be a GREAT listen for you...

[@rk41gator]

Bill Bruford played with Genesis! YES, yes he did! He toured with them after Gabriel left and Phil started singing. Bill and Phil played together with Brand X, so when they were looking for a drummer Bill volunteered. It was great but Bill decided it was not the direction he wanted to go. Phil by that time found Chester Thompson (who was with Weather Report at the time). Phil knew Chester's work from Frank Zappa (think 'Inca Roads'). Now 'The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway' is ambitious. Phil drumming is fusion inspired. It is long, so many do the album in sections. Definitely do it, but maybe after a few more of their other great tunes. (now I need to go see what you have done so far) I'm back. You've hit some really great songs. So go ahead. But other must hears are: The Musical Box, Cinema Show, Dance on a Volcano, Squonk, (oh hell, the whole damned album is so good), Blood on the Rooftops, One for the Vine, Down and Out, ABACAB, Domino, Mama, No Son of Mine, Fading Lights for starters.

I wish more people would react to this one - it's such a special song. And yes, Phil's drumming is outstanding in its complexity but it fits perfectly for what's needed in the song. If you like music experimentation, then you'll love the Lamb album - it's a crazy story about a Puerto Rican in NYC that gets crazy into the metaphysical world in a way only the 70s could accomplish. My suggestions are not to get hung up too much on the lyrics and enjoy the ride - also, I suggest listening to the original audio and not the fan-made animated version that's out there on KZbin because that can be very distracting on a first listen and it's not necessary at all. I've heard some KZbinrs also have copyright issues posting reactions to the album. If you haven't heard the song Dance on a Volcano, you really should - it's on the first album after Peter left and I think you will really like it. Beato also did a "what makes this song great" for this song and it's funny watching him try to count the time signature changes. Your society rants at the end are great btw 😁

For more intricate Phil Collins drumming you can’t go wrong with his side hustle from ‘75 onward (before his solo career) Brand X … if you thought the drumming in Moonlit Knight was insane, listen to this 👉🏻 kzbin.info/aero/OLAK5uy_mvlFrVwlQuDKM43_ZAqNjhfZ4jMkhugIQ&feature=shared

I know there are better guitarists than Steve Hackett (although not a whole lot of them) but in this song he's "tapping" and "sweep picking" before there was a name for them.
