Genesis Live Performance at Shepperton Studios featuring Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins

Date: November 30, 1972

In November 1972, Genesis was on the brink of transformation, with their innovative sound attracting a growing fan base. Just a few months before this live recording at Shepperton Studios, they released the album "Foxtrot," which showcased their ambitious songwriting and theatrical flair. This album featured the groundbreaking track "Supper's Ready," often hailed as a cornerstone of progressive rock. The energy of the performance, particularly with Peter Gabriel's enigmatic stage presence and the burgeoning talents of Steve Hackett and Phil Collins, illustrates their dynamic growth during this era. Interesting tidbit: this live show captures Genesis at a pivotal point, right before they truly exploded into the mainstream with their subsequent album, "Selling England by the Pound." It’s a fascinating glimpse into their artistic evolution!
