A live collection

Genesis were arguably the most theatrical rock act of the era, but apart from the spectacle of Peter Gabriel's prodigious wardrobe, Steve Hackett, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Phil Collins provided an audacious soundscape that had given them some credible space in the UK music press by 1970. The hallowed early years with Gabriel continued to flourish through Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot and the pivotal 1973 album Selling England by the Pound. London Calling presents an invaluable snapshot of the halcyon era when together with Steve Hackett and Putney's most famous son; Phil Collins, the Charterhouse boys conquered America and reigned supreme with successive hits on both sides of the Atlantic This exciting collection features rare and iconic songs, performed live for international radio and TV broadcast Presented with background notes and timeline photos 1-1 Fountain Of Salmacis1-2 Twilight Alehouse1-3 The Musical Box1-4 The Return Of The Giant Hogweed1-5 Intro1-6 The Return Of The Giant Hogweed1-7 Watcher Of The Skies1-8 Dancing With The Moonlit Knight1-9 I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)1-10 Firth Of Fifth 2-1 More For Me2-2 The Battle Of Epping Forest2-3 Supper's Ready2-4 I Know What I Like2-5 Supper's Ready CD1:1-4: "Pop Shop", Brussels, Belgium, March 20th/21st 1792 RBTF-TV5-6: "Intro/The Story Of The Musical Box/The Musical Box/Band Intros/Intro To": "In Concert", Paris Theatre, London, UK November 3rd 1972 BBC radio 17-10: Rainbow Theatre, London, UK October 20th 1973 King Biscuit Flower Hour CD2:1-3: Rainbow Theatre, London, UK October 20th 1973 King Biscuit Flower Hour4-5: "Melody" ORTF TV Studios, Paris, France February 12th 1974 ORTF-TV
