Genesis

In November 1976, Genesis performed 'Supper's Ready' live in Paris, showcasing a pivotal moment in their career, as they were riding high on the success of their album 'A Trick of the Tail,' released earlier that same year. This marked the first album featuring Phil Collins as the lead vocalist after Peter Gabriel's departure, which generated a mixture of excitement and apprehension among fans. The live recording captures the band in their element, weaving intricate melodies and emotionally charged lyrics that define their progressive rock sound. Interestingly, 'Seconds Out,' the live album released in 1977, features this performance, cementing Genesis's reputation for electrifying live shows. This particular rendition of 'Supper's Ready' is a testament to their ability to blend complex musical arrangements with heartfelt storytelling, allowing listeners to fully experience the breadth of their artistry.
