Genesis - Toronto March 31 1976 8mm

[@brunofaetten894]

Wonderful stuff, amazing work by all involved! This was only Phil's fifth show as frontman, so we're witnessing the start of an era.

[@speedysfilms]

First large show at about 15000 seats and the reels are from both nights the march31 and april1st shows. Only tour will Bill on drums as well. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment.

​@@speedysfilms Phil in 1976 as frontman in front of 15,000 and he's completely on it. He makes it look like total self assurance.

[@hughmungus1767]

@@davebellamy4867 I spoke to Steve and Phil, especially Phil, before the second show of the tour, at the University of Waterloo. In hindsight, I think he was somewhat nervous about the whole thing. Within moments of arriving at the gig, several hours before the show began, I saw several guys chasing a soccer ball around and thought the roadies were goofing off but it turned out to be all or most of the band letting off some steam! Steve and Phil and I did a shortish formal interview while the roadies were setting up, then Phi and I talked again at someone greater length without the tape recorder running while the rest of the technical setup got done. He didn't actually SAY he was nervous but his body language and some of the things he said gave me the impression that he was very conscious that the audience acceptance of the new version of Genesis, much of which depended on him, could make or break the band. But he clearly rose to the occasion and that version of Genesis was very successful; the band even survived Steve leaving.

[@aMan-or9ij]

@@hughmungus1767 Thank you for sharing your experience. In my case, I would fall in love with the band through my sister, ten years my senior, who did see the '76 tour and shared her albums and early concert stories with me. Genesis has always connected us - still to this day. To have the opportunity you did was very special, and I'm grateful you passed it on so we may enjoy it, vicariously.

Now, something that would be really nice is for the person who put together the whole Lamb Lies Down on Broadway concert at the Shrine Auditorium in LA with mostly 8mm film, to process it also the way you have in 2k or 4k.

Wow this is amazing! Thanks to all for the hard work! Digitizing, color correction, sharpening, stabilizing, and getting the sync dead on, a historical document is now made. I am just trying to imagine the Genesis fans at this time. Peter leaves, and Phil (the drummer and back up singer of your favorite band) comes out front with confidence and charges on, and gives it a new fresh energy and feel. This shows what an amazing talent Phil Collins has especially for the fifth night of the tour. And for the same price the fans got to see Bill Bruford on drums!

Fun (period)! This brings back memories as I caught them in Burbank on that tour. The 3-screen projectors, the lasers, the fog machine, local kids coming over the hills climbing over the fence into the amphitheatre, Steve's monologue ("One of the qualifications to be in Genesis is you have to be a good dancer, like our Phil. Look at him go!"), fans eating fried chicken, fans lighting waterpipes, the aircraft landing lights & dancing flowers...

I posted this comment as a reply but I thought it might be useful more generally. the producers of this amazing archival work are too polite to say it but the comments questing the cuts and why it is this way speaks to a lack of understanding of the source material. This material was audience shot on the only practical, commercially available medium to normal people, super 8 film (for reference see Steven Spielbergs movie super 8, an homage to amateur filmmakers). There were no cells phones, there were no video cameras (at least of the size you could stuff in your pants). So the film cartridges were bulky and low capacity. Enjoy it for what it is, gorgeously restored archival footage unavailable anywhere else. And be thankful that people spent Loooong hours working to bring this material to near cinematic levels and you would have never otherwise ever seen it. To the team that produced this please know fans who know what you did are grateful. I hope that is enough. Peter

Thank you so much. Absolutely love this comment. Some time people have a lot to say lol but we try to use those comments to grow and push the quality to the limits. If you look at some of our earlier 1080p audio less videos, much has evolved. REALLY appreciate the shout out to all the hard work that went into these videos. We now have whole teams of people working hard to bring these videos to every one and they disserve all the support. Thank you again every one involved and thank you again for this amazing comment

Just listen to that Bruford feel,fucking Awesome

I love the 1976 footage. They were like a band set free. And I mean absolutely nothing against Peter, but his leaving and Phil being up front meant that his relaxed vibe permeated the whole thing. Wonderful Stuff. From a band that had so many great eras. In fact an era for all moods.

[@sirgilmour]

LOVED IT!!! Maybe the next video they find will have snippets of White Moutain Live! :) It's almost as if they turned off the cam during that song cause they did not know it :P

Ya, I'm not sure. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment

[@2visiondigital]

76 tour. Watching BB drive the songs behind the band is legendary. I wonder if he even rehearsed ? It is not where he was at but Genesis sounds potent with him drumming. For a BB fan it is a revelation to hear him play these beloved Genesis tunes. Yes, King Crimson and Genesis. Heck of a resume.

Amazing what a performance from Phil so early on

[@speedysfilms]

Its quite wild how quick he fit into his roll as lead singer. Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment

[@mathames4679]

Pretty amazing, thank you. I think I get why this is chopped up bits. He probably had just one roll/ reel or maybe two, and in those days a reel was about 12-14 minutes long. He was probbaly just trying to roll on 'moments' to capture the coolest bits. Sort of like people today do with a cell phone. Looks and sounds incredible, thanks for all the work put in.

[@frk75]

12 minutes? Think again! 8mm were like 2 min/3 min. Max., so he also had to change reels several times during the show,

[@speedysfilms]

Exactly, this was on 5, 3 min reels. After all the speed corrections it was 17:17. Imagine trying to capture as many of the key moment and key songs with only 5 reels in your pocket. Jim Kelly (Speedy) did an amazing job considering.

[@mathames4983]

@@frk75 amazing. I stand corrected. I’ve worked with old cameras - but apparently not with those limitations. Incredible job considering! I like how as he got to It/ Watcher, he went ahead and rolled on much more of them, perhaps because he sensed the show was nearly over: anyway this is incredible

[@mathames4983]

Also so impressed with his exposure and camera settings and focus. That can’t have been easy with the light constantly changing, and not having a big monitor like people have today

Phil made different show every tour with Genesis. He never repeated himself as a showman.

IT truly is amazing and unique to see that Bill Bruford played live both of the two biggest Prog rock epic classics: Close to the Edge and Supper's Ready, what a guy Mr. BB!

Amazing! With Bill Bruford on drums! 🎵🎶🎵🎶When was Chester Thompson going to come in?

[@TheAmarok87]

Chester joined in late 1976, shortly after Genesis finished working on "Wind and Wuthering" and began their tour rehearsals..

@@TheAmarok87 Great, great album, "Wind & Wuthering".

[@speedysfilms]

Good question! and thank you Amarok for the answer. Yes, making this the only tour with Bill on drums. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment

[@paulcarfantan6688]

I believe Chester played his first concert with the guys on January 1st 1977.
