Toni Lindgren (guitar), Andrew Foreman (bass), and I recorded this cover of Peter Gabriel's "Solsbury Hill" in our studio and then hiked to this very pretty spot on a bluff by the Pacific ocean to shoot the video. Special thanks to our friends Alana and Marisa for operating the cameras on this shoot! You might remember Alana from when she sang "Mary Hamilton" and "Two Sisters" with me. A grand time was had by all, and we hope you enjoy this cover of one of PG's very best songs.
We have rescheduled most of our 2020 concerts. Take a look at the dates and see if we're coming to your town later this year or early next year! reinadelcid.com...

Happy Sunday morning, all! If you're interested in learning how to play this song on guitar, check out Toni's lesson! kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5LEgWiNadKeotE

[@MarciaoMarciones]

Thank you girls. You make our Sunday better :D

[@docben1541]

There's also another beautiful song : "The book of love "🕊🌻👸❤

[@anicebitofbreadtomopupthel7144]

Thanks Reina, thanks for all the great music. I love this cover.

[@Drakijy]

It's certainly much better now! This recording is just fantastic.

[@tiagocaldas]

if Reina doesn't exist it would be necessary to invent her

[@robertgeorge4064]

The best yet. I like this better than original. Toni is so smooth on that guitar. It just fills the air with sweetness. Elle’s voice , tone, timing is something to behold. It’s captivating.

[@michaelvoland3625]

I can't even tell you how many times I've watched this one.

[@Kindheart93]

Me too. I love it. So talented, simple and sincere.

[@michaelvoland3625]

@@Kindheart93 And so, I listen again...

[@ActionBruce]

Over and over, again... and keep coming back... Lots of great covers out there, of a great, great song... but for certain moods, this one is at the top.

[@jayd.rosenblum3975]

It took me a moment to realize Toni was playing the Bass Drum. Do you realize how good you have to be to finger-pick and play a drum at the same time? She's becoming Wrecking Crew good.

[@michaellee4053]

7/4 time to boot!

[@DavesCoverSongs]

“Wrecking Crew good”. Now that’s a great (and accurate) compliment.

[@bobrickert4333]

She's a one person wrecking crew.!

[@ParaBellum2024]

It was recorded in the studio and while it may well have been done in one take, all together, it could just as easily have been multitracked with all the parts, including the bass drum, played separately. Regardless of how it was recorded, this is a fine cover and Toni is an excellent musician.

[@jayd.rosenblum3975]

@@ParaBellum2024 no argument, but she is playing both in the video and we could tell if she wasn't keeping time correctly. I really am impressed.

[@RADThird1]

I never ceased to be amazed by the lazyness of so many comments. Before you fire off something critical about "recorded elsewhere", etc. just read the complete bloody description that tells you up front that the audio was done in a studio and reenacted on location. Come on folks, your better than this! That said....it's a wonderful cover.

[@miguelservetus9534]

You are right on. Any fool knows that the wind on a bluff over the Pacific would make impossible to record or hear the beautiful voice and music.

[@jamescuratalo2609]

Of course it was a reenactment of THEIR OWN studio recording! Thats why it sounds so good!

[@jackbean1166]

As a young soldier in 1980 this song took me back to when I was on a wheat and sheep farm.

[@rowlandharryweston6037]

Why cant i like this 10, 000 times?

My Cousin Jonas from Sweden loved this song. He passed away a month ago; he was a brilliant man. He would have loved this cover. Thanks.

I think Peter would love this, i know I do.

[@eric69571]

Toni's like this guitar riff isn't hard enough, let me play the drums too while we're at it.

[@chadlpnemt]

She could probably toot on a trombone if she wanted to on top of all that...And with her other hand she'd pluck a harp.

[@sourisvoleur4854]

She's amazing.

2024 here and it's still worth the visit 🎯

[@thegreatskinkpriest8104]

I think this is my favorite song. My dad and I would sing this on the way home from school all the time. “Grab your things I’ve come to take you home”, classic dad joke. Graduated high school last May, college is all online don’t get to sing in the car with him anymore. Can’t wait til this pandemic is finally over. This is a lovely cover.

[@TKevinBlanc]

As a father with kids finished with college and well into adult life, I approve of this sentiment. You should show it to your Dad. He'll be touched. May you have many years of drives with your father.

[@TerryToon17]

Beautiful comment about a song that never meant much to another kids Dad, till now!

[@1111MJR]

I am a Dad and am guilty of the same dad joke, to much eye-rolling from my daughter. Hope your Dad gets to take you and pick you up from college soon.

[@cheofbowland]

Solsbury Hill, Wildflowers & Harvest Moon are all awesome covers..Luv em...Che,xxx

[@markroach8419]

An old genesis fan is very impressed with this performance I take my hat off to you all

It's a shame there's nothing new from Elle and Toni but we still have brilliant older stuff like this 😊

These two ladies with 2 guitars make a lot of beautiful music! So much control over range in her vocals. Awesome

Her vocals are so sweet.

[@ActionBruce]

I could just listen to this on a loop over and over for an hour... in fact, I just did :-)

[@michaelwilson1325]

I have never really been a big Peter Gabriel fan. But this goes to show, a good song in someone else's hands can bring it life. And, of course, these gals (and guy) seem to bring every song they touch to new life.

[@MrSimonmcc]

Search for a band named Còig, from Nova Scotia, Canada. I love their version and have had the pleasure of seeing them perform it live. It's also featured on their CD, Rove.

[@gino3286]

It's like to listen out of the mixing desk Complete transparency Amazing

[@danroot1356]

I was a huge Genesis fan in high school in the 70s. Saw Peter Gabriel’s fist solo tour at the Troubadour in LA when I was 17. He played this song. You all did it justice. Beautiful cover. I am sure if Peter sees this he will be honored. You all are amazing. Thanks for sharing your art with us. Hugs from New Zealand.

[@kkampy4052]

I was thinking the same thing

[@sanddab]

He played The Roxy on Sunset for his first couple solo tours. One of the best concert experiences of my life!

Big fan of Peter Gabriel when Reina & Toni are covering! :)

[@thathawaiiandude787]

One of the sweetest tunes of my youth. You folks did an excellent job covering it. I loved the melody. And glad you kept that part of it. Very cool and Mahalo for sharing this. Aloha🤙🏾🎼🎶🎵

[@daviddemar8749]

This is a paradigmatic example of why your videos are one of my "antidotes" to the sadness and isolation of the pandemic era in which we currently live; superb musicians, excellent video production and often suprising song choices. Never in my life would I have imagined that you would have covered a song like this, though. Thank you for the joy that you bring to me every Sunday and other days during the week. I have dreams of going to see your future concert with The Other Favorites at the Beacon Theater or Radio City Music Hall in NYC or maybe on the moon since you performed so wonderfully during your fantastic streamed concert in space 😊🎼🎵🎶🎸🚀❤

[@cheofbowland]

This & Wildflowers & Harvest Moon Are all awesome covers.

[@matthewspencer5086]

The one flaw that I can see is that they had Alana _behind_ the camera. I remember her previous appearance in front of the camera very clearly and I want it to happen more.

[@tmeyer2022]

That composition fits your style perfectly. I like it just as much today as a year ago.

[@leopardgeckos8058]

Ever since I was little my dad would play me this song and tell me of the way it reminded him of his own father. Now whenever I hear it i think of my dad - he’s passed it onto me. This is such a special song to me - so hearing this just filled my heart. What a beautiful cover - thank you for sharing this with the world 💕

[@tomsan7742]

[@jameswortman9394]

I have heard the original many times....but your performance and maybe I was listening more closely I felt another meaning in my soul......

[@zesquonk6693]

I had to listen 10 times to your cover to understand why I like it so much. First of all, great song choice and beautiful cover ! The difference between the original and your cover is the kind of energy coming from the song. The PG's version is more linked to motion energy, your cover is more linked to fragility, a little as if Paul Simon interpreted it. You did a great job in Paul Simonizing Solsbury Hill, I love it. Congratulations to everyone involved in this little gem .

[@mcmeh7819]

That's actually spot on

[@PaulAshley]

Playing it with bass keyboard and full drums lends itself to a pulsing, intense rendition. It's hard to replicate that with sa stripped down acoustic performance. I'm just learning this for solo guitar and this arrangement is a big help in getting a feel of another way it can be successfully performed.

[@robertcox14]

I've listened to Peter Gabriel for many years, only recently hearing the iconic nature of his personal sound. This song is perhaps a burnt in place memory of "home," the intent of the song of "grab your things, I've come to take you home" never stops grabbing the heart strings. Note strong connections to "emotional content" of the word "home." Songwriters, pick good, hot words that connect the listener to emotions.
