PHIL COLLINS: I LOVED PLAYING 'FLY ON THE WINDSHIELD' ON GENESIS 'LAMB ' ALBUM

[@DavidJones-lz4io]

Steve’s guitar absolutely sets this song alight. Great track and the guitar part deserves to be part of this, albeit short clip, of the conversation.

I love seeing Phil smiling while remembering making music, thank you so much for this Mr. Edington ♥️

[@abundantYOUniverse]

First! Your videos have really shown me who these people are, and it is fantastic, THANK YOU!

[@rk41gator]

The Lamb is a monumental achievement.

[@jograham1153]

I could listen to Phil talk about the evolution of his masterpieces all day...

[@larrylanberg3552]

The very first time I heard The Lamb album, "Fly" grabbed me right away. I remember thinking that it sounded Egyptian.

[@Olliebear38]

I find early Genesis music fascinating. Absolutely blasted Nursery Chryme to The lamb lies down on Broadway for years. Such good fun to listen to. Wish I could be excited for their later work the same but it just never grabbed my attention . Foibles of life.

They found Phil on an AD Board in a club. He was a huge part of Genesis success !

[@philipbunney9445]

Did ‘the powers that be’ really have the original video reported because you played the audio? Good god!

[@JOHNEDGINTONDOCUMENTARIES]

Yes indeed!! I have incurred a ‘copyright strike’ and the video taken down !

Thanks John for uploading these interesting interviews, both with Phil and each of the other members of the band. I've watched the various interviews with Phil in this specific location, and I was wondering if there are more and/or if there's a full interview video, something similar to the RAW. UNCUT. FULL 2HR. Cheers from Italy.

[@JOHNEDGINTONDOCUMENTARIES]

At some point when i the time .. sigh!.. I will go through the full length of that one and see if it works using all of it. though i think those selections you mention add up to the bulk of it

[@erinsutherland1195]

My mom loves this music artist...he's awesome....

[@volkerd714]

The drummer being stuck with a not ideal take and everyone else redoing their parts at will... relatable! The jam on "waiting room" has always been a highlight for me.. I generally enjoy Genesis' instrumental parts most, and Phil sounds best when he's playing by feel, as he's such an intuitive play-by-feel drummer IMO.

[@shawnbingley5433]

Fly on a Windshield is a great track though and I love the drumming Phil Collins did with Genesis..especially on Selling England by the Pound..

[@mortuaryartist]

Excellent as usual John

[@mikearchibald744]

For the second where "Fly" changes time it certainly sounds almost EXACTLY like Zeppelins levy or kashmir. But it doesn't last very long and the song itself bears no relationship to anything led zeppelin did. I saw a meme that seemed to indicate Robert Plant felt a little guilty that he wasn't writing deeper lyrics like some of the prog guys, but I don't think zeppelin is bad for that. I find them almost boring because they are little TOO bluesy, although I think all the claims that Page stole all his riffs from black blues guys a little silly. Early Genesis is just flat out crazy. The lyrics contribute to that, but the 'busy' that Mike so often maligns is really what makes them great.

[@aminahmed2220]

What a fantastic video

[@sirgilmour]

I prefer with the TimeCode than cropped and if the moving numbers are distracting for some, simply put a black rectangle or a Genesis logo over it.

[@ethelip5239]

Phil remembered Fly really well! I would have loved to hear take 2 of Salmacis…😮

[@Drchainsaw77]

It's worth noting that Phil is wrong -- "Kashmir" was not only _not_ on the same record as "When the Levee Breaks," but "Fly on a Windshield" predated "Kashmir" by an entire year.

[@llucero94]

The Genesis song that was inspired by Kashmir was Squonk from Trick of the Tail.

[@shawnbingley5433]

Led Zeppelin recorded the new tracks for Physical Graffiti (8 tracks including Kashmir) at Headley Grange in Jan, Feb 74..Genesis started recording Lamb stuff also at Headley Grange in June 74..in other words Physical Graffiti was recorded before but released after Lamb..there’s a more than good chance I think that Genesis would have heard the Zep stuff before it was released over the speakers at Headley Grange and were influenced by what they heard on Lamb..it’s quite common for bands to hear the stuff other bands have recorded at a recording facility to demonstrate to them how good the recording there is..this famously happened with Mick Fleetwood listening to Buckingham Nicks in a studio he was visiting whereby he wasn’t just impressed with the quality of the recording he loved the playing and the singing and asked them to join his band..

[@jonnykhatru]

​@@llucero94 that's right, Tony has said the same thing. He and Mike were in love with Kashmir when it released apparently!

[@stefanlivesey8068]

Give Phil a break about getting the dates of the Zep songs! Can you imagine trying to remember all he has to remember, given the life he's led🙂

Funny to have muted a piece "for copyright reasons" in front of the one having the rights 😂 In any case I think we can play any piece up to 30 secs with no problem 3:37

[@JOHNEDGINTONDOCUMENTARIES]

Sadly, Phil does not have the music rights.Welcome to the nightmare world of music rights ownership !! Although it is clearly "fair use" to have Phil commenting on his own performance, the music publishers aggressively challenged me when I uploaded the full clip. I received a "copyright strike" from KZbin which is not good - as 3 strikes would lead to my channel being banned from KZbin !!

I think 2014. So thats' way.;)

"Chamber of 32 doors" always reminded me of the United States Senate, especially the part where all the doors lead back to the same place as in never able to move forward. 🤷‍♂️🙄

[@pobinr]

Can hardly hear the interviewer's voice🤔 The copyright thing's so silly. When people hear a small snippet it's free promotion of the music for the record company fat cats
