All Genesis fans, but especially those like myself that were around, but never got to see Gabriel live with Genesis, are forever indebted to you for painstakingly restoring these vintage films we've been watching for decades. There is no doubt that your efforts were well worth it. And now more people will be able to see with clarity what a marvel Genesis was. Thank you for your labor of love.

[@graemem111]

As a Scot, I do very much appreciate the concept of ‘Englishness’ and love what I see. See here anyway. So many so called English patriots could do worse than listen to this. Dancing out is one of many Gabriel era songs that wrestle with what it means to be English. Be they the bucolic or the confrontational, Gabriel’s lyrics are on point at a time when the English were struggling with their identity. And arguably still are. Sit those a*holes down, give them an edible or two and ask them to reflect. Whilst listening to your amazing reconstruction. Seriously. You have excelled yourselves. I was at the Six of the best gig at Milton Keynes, and so have seen Genesis with Gabriel. Incredible. Although my clothes are not yet dry some 40 years later! Fabulous work. We truly appreciate what you’ve done and are doing. Thank you.

That lineup back in the early 70s really were one of the best bands around. I was 17 in 73 and had been listening to Genesis for about six months (not stopped since). I was devastated when Pete left, then Steve. They were never the same after that. Brilliant restoration, loved watching it, all credit to the guys who did it. I’m going to see Steve next year really looking forward to it.

Dreams came true! When I visited the very first Genesis concert at the age of 15 (the "Wind and Wuthering" tour in Germany) I was sad having missed the Gabriel era (Peter had just left two years before) and was sure: I will never witness the magic of the early years again. The internet did not exist then and every acoustic and visual document seemed lost for good or was extremely hard to find. Thanks for the Genesis Museum and all the fans worldwide who make this journey and trip back possible... in such breathtaking quality!!!

The British Music invasion after the Beatles had just started from such musical legend groups such as Genesis with singer Peter Gabriel then with Phil Collins on drums later Phil taking over as lead singer for Genesis. More musical legends of the British music invasion of America include David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Moody Blues, Led Zepplin, and more. All my favorites of mine say the Good Earth Chef Barry Anderson of Phuket Thailand. I bought all of their albums and enjoyed them all as a young teen with my hippy long hair and bell bottoms. As a young aspiring traditional artist at the time, I would sketch and sometimes paint the lyrics on paper and canvas. Later Walt Disney hired Barry to supervise the show Darkwing Duck and Goof Troop TV series throughout the early 90s and then I continued to enjoy my Genesis music albums to this day now listening on KZbin. Thank You, KZbin.

Je n'ai jamais cessé depuis d'ecouter ce groupe, mes 2 albums préférés étant Foxtrot et Selling England by the pound, la meilleure époque de Genesis pour moi. 1 er groupe à fusionner théâtre et musique.c'est la musique classique du 20 eme siècle ! Peter Gabriel crève l'écran, a un jeu de scène inventif, hallucinant, laissant présager l'immense carrière qu'il a fait ensuite. Le rock progressif est l'une de mes musiques préférées: Yes, Genesis, King crimson, Pink Floyd, ....Que la musique moderne actuelle semble pauvre et sans intérêt.

[@andyc3586]

Just brilliant. Brilliant. Had thought the original was shot on 35mm film - but Arri did 16mm cameras too so am maybe wrong on that? For those interested in the techy stuff, a couple (could have been three - it was a long time ago...) of big Arriflex cameras (very professional looking) on stands were used and from time to time one ran on rails just behind the small audience (the band wanted a real audience to add atmosphere - the cheering is real but probably expanded in some way). The band would play a song live using a couple of cameras angles. Filming would then stop and the camera angles changed. The band would then mime to the live recording they'd just made - pretty much 100% note perfect too every time - played back through the PA and monitors. That gave four camera angles in total. Before each shot, the director would call 'Turn Over' and when the cameras were up to speed 'Action'. A clapperboad was used to sync things (would love to have that!). Filming was originally planned to take one day but progress was slow and a second day was required. To get the crowd, the audience at a Peter Hammill (VDGG singer) concert at Wigmore Hall the evening before was asked at his concert to meet at Victoria Coach station the next day if they wanted to take part in the filming. They would then be transported to Shepperton (and back later!), fed and watered but no money was exchanged on other side. At the end of day one's shooting the audience was invited back the next day but you had to make your own transport arrangements. The end result was one (two?) of the finest concerts I've ever experienced. So day two's audience was a bit smaller. The band was approachable, relaxed and friendly. Look very carefully and you may just see the back of my head (more hair those days...) silhouetted in some of the shots, along with cousin Andre, friend Steve and workmate Harold. Ah memories and ah, what music and a band at the very peak of its form.

[@ikhnaton]

Incredible story, and you have a very good memory ! Gerry Harrison told me that the film was shot on 16mm… But maybe he’s wrong? The « master reels » location is unknown, even to Genesis, so we will maybe never able to get the answer. I have a question for you, do you remember if « the battle of epping forest » was played?
