The next '24 Hour Session', here on SA, will feature the group 'Genesis'. This will be held soon (within a couple of weeks or so) and I've already started to compile the playlist ...

If there is any particular track you would like included in this 'Session', please feel to post here.

If I haven't got it, I will try my best to find it !!  ;D

Cheers for now.

D.C.

suppers ready and anything from the lamb lies donw on broadway please

thank you  8)

Anything by Genesis or its members... umm... just easy on phil.  ;D

If you still want anything from the list I sent you, send me a msg.

I think there is possibly one Mike+Mechanics track worthy of inclusion and that is 'Silent Running' from their first album. Simply a great song.

And don't forget Steve Hackett of course. Plenty of quality music there to choose from.

One old Genesis track I would love to hear is 'Twilight Alehouse". It was the b side to 'I know what I like'. Fantastic track that I can't believe never made it onto an album. I know I have said piece of vinyl, but don't know if it's available in digital format.

Have it on digital format already (imported CD compilation) and it has been on the playlist in the past. Fantastic tune that will certainly be there on the night !!  ;D

Keep 'em coming people ...

Hello DC!
Would like to request much "LAMB" to a good friend.(In dedication, to Kathi)(a flautist that no one can measure to)(In real life)!!!!--"Cuckoo Cacoon"!, for her!!, AND, Give her a good whip of "Foxtrot", and "Selling England for a pound or 2"--lol, as she seems a bit unfamiliar with GENESIS w/PG---I like it all!!--Lesser with Phil singing though!!!----Give her a Blast!---Thanx!!
Looking forward to the program!!
Good day to you and to all other SA Folks here!!!
Thanks and good nite to you!!---Resp.---Brent

Hey Brent !!

All of the above will be added.  ;D

Anymore for anymore ... ??  ::)

It seems that most bands at some point do a BBC session. Genesis were no exception, do you have any of these recordings?

The band themselves seem to  ignore the first album 'From Genesis To Revelation' but there are some good songs on it. 'Where The Sour Turns To Sweet' 'Silent Sun'.

Do you organise one mammoth 24hr session (an unenviable task) or a 12hr session played twice?

Hi Silver,

Yup, I have some BBC Sessions on an imported CD. I'll dig out the tracks I have and will let you know. They're around the 'Trespass' era if I remember correctly and I'm sure I've featured them on the playlist at some time.

I'm hoping for the playlist to be the full twenty four hours but I'm going to have to get back to you on that !!  :o

Cheers for now.

D.C.

Hi there DC!
Would also like to request some PG!
"Here Comes The Flood","Darkness".
Would like to hear "Blue Sky" in honour and to offer respect to my YESfriends whom I have had not the pleasure of speaking to in quite a while, and miss!!!

Can you give me a holler?
I get your messages by E-mail, but, I can't E'mail to your side.---Tried the IM thing last nite.--Didn't fly.
Some sort of problem.--Could use some help on that!

Thanx DC!!!---Looking forward to the upcoming GENESIS program.

Take care and good evening!!----------Resp.--Brent

Hey DC !! Cool site and great tunes !!

*Harold the Barrel* and *The Knife* please.

How much *Peter Gabriel* are you going to play as well ?

Love and bubbles

Anna

Hi Anna and welcome to the forum !!  ;D

HTB and 'The Knife' will definitely be featured. As far as PG goes, apart from the tracks that have already been thrown into the ring, I'm still open to offers ...  

Ummm... Everything by PG that's good!  :P

Moribund the Burgermeister, More Than This, Sledgehammer, Washing of the Water, Strawberry Fields Forever, I grieve... You know. :)

How about *On the air* and *Games without frontiers* ?  :-*

I'm off to a gig a little later tonight to see a band called Karate from Boston. Should be fun!

Nice one matey  ;D

Put a post up telling us all how it went ...  8)

Not long to go now ladies and gentlemen ... anymore ?  ::)

Can't wait for the session. I never get tired of hearing Afterglow or anything off W&W for that matter. I'm sure there is already plenty on the list..

Many Thanks...M

Hi All:

I just joined the Forum and enjoy your station.

I'm not sure what to request, but here are some ideas:

I quite enjoy Anthony Phillips albums and also Steve Hackett's, both of whom have quite an extensive collection of excellent and diverse albums. Hackett's Live Archive CDs are great and I really like Phillips' Private Parts & Pieces albums, all 10 of them. So, if you could integrate a few interesting items from the works of these original Genesis guitarists, I'm sure many would appreciate it.

I also suggest a few Brand X tracks featuring Phil, such as on Unorthodox Behaviour or Product. They're more interesting than most of his regular solo stuff.

Mike's Smallcreep's Day is quite good and perhaps a track or two from Tony's solo albums, particularly instrumental tracks from A Curious Feeling would be nice.

Peter's film soundtrack albums are seldom heard, so perhaps a track or two from Birdy or Last Temptation of Christ. Peter's German versions of his 3rd and 4th albums are neat too.

As far as Genesis items, others seem to have suggested some good tracks. Perhaps digging into the 2 Archive box sets for some different tracks would be interesting.

You could also play a few tracks from the Spot the Pidgeon EP and some selections from the live Gabriel and Collins eras albums.

Of course, feel free to play some rare, unofficial, live concert tracks occasionally to keep things interesting.

What time zone are you in? I ask so I'll know when the 24 hour marathon will start. I'm in Toronto, in the Eastern North American time zone.

Thanks for your efforts.

Chris (searcher)

Hi searcher and welcome to the forum !!

Excellent suggestions albeit at the eleventh hour ...  :o There will certainly be some 'Steve Hackett' solo material and I will do my best to get hold of some 'Anthony Phillips' (not sure if I have anything of his on file to be honest ...  ::) )

We're on 'GMT' here and the 'session' starts @ 9:00pm GMT. 'EST' is 'GMT -5' so, 4:00pm your time.

Thanks again !!

Dee

Thanks for the info about the start time of the marathon. Perhaps you should include that with the news item about it on your main site. I had assumed that it would start early in the morning.

Whatever you can play would be fine. I have almost, if not all of Anthony Phillips' albums digitized from LPs and CDs. The same is true with Steve Hackett. It would be interesting if these two collaborated on an album at some point. Its not likely, but who knows?

Looking forward to the Genesis overdose,

Chris

Early in the morning for me is the middle of the night for you, afternoon in Asia and evening in Australia. Such is the beauty of the world-wide-web I suppose and people from all corners of the globe do tune in.

We're a bit laid-back here at SA. The date of the 'Genesis Session' has already changed once, let alone the time. Anyway, I guess it could have been added to the news section.  ::)

As for advertising stream-rippers, well that's a no-no here I'm afraid. That and the advertising of file-sharing software. In any case, the vast majority of stream-rippers will automatically be kicked by the DNAS software if a connection is attempted.

We actively encourage purchasing music heard here (or elsewhere) via a legitimate source. If there's a specific tune you've heard, let me know or start a new thread requesting details.

Here's a starter for ten :-

Greetings! I am new, no kidding! ;)

Thank you, thank you THANK YOU for this marathon. I don't know if it's too late to put in a request. Some of my favorites have already been requested.  Either I missed or it wasn't mentioned, but I'd love to hear "Can-Utility and the Coastliners".  :)
Thanks again; I am enjoying the show!

Hi there 'Roan's Lady' - great to see you here !!

It's never too late to post a request !! Even if it had been played before, I would probably play it again ...

'Can Utility And The Coastliners' will come up after 'Visions Of Angels' - which is in about twenty-odd minutes in fact ...

Enjoy.

Dee

Thank you so much, Dee!  ;D

My pleasure ...  :)

Now how about a bit of Squonk.

Or if you're going to play any Anthony Phillips, how about " What if I saw her now" ( i think that's the title from memory )

No problem with 'Squonk'. I'll come back in a mo and let you know when to expect it. Soon tho ...  ;D

I seemed to have fallen-over regarding 'Anthony Phillips' ... I'll have to get back to you on that front ...

It's from " The geese and the ghost " or " The ghost and the geese" or something like that.

The session opened with 'Duchess' but I will play it again later. All the others are yet to come ...  8)

Glad you're enjoying the music !!  ;D

I am SO LOVING this...this version of "Grand Parade..." fantastic, and the sound quality is superb!!  :D

Glad you're enjoying it. Plenty more to come ...  ;D

this is fantastic ! I'm going to listen for as long as I can  :-*

any *Peter Gabriel* solo material ?

Yup. Loads of 'Peter Gabriel' on the playlist, have no fear.  ;D

Enjoy.

Dee

A few other suggestions:

Steve Hackett doing some classic Genesis as recorded on his Genesis Revisted and/or Tokyo Tapes albums and/or from the various Live Archive CDs.

A few tracks from the "Genesis for Two Hand Piano" album, such as Salmacis and/or Can Utility...

Are you planning to also include any unofficial rare live recordings in the mix?

Enjoying the show so far,

Chris (searcher)

I wonder if the "progmaster" is staying up for the 24 hr.'s...?  

Hi to you all tonite!

DC?--Made my requests already,but, missed one.
When you get back to PG mode, can you do "Family Snapshot"?

Great music tonite/today!!!---Thanks!!

Good weekend to all of you!!-----------Brent

I have another pot of coffee brewing and will be here for a while yet.

In any case, the playlist is loaded and the station is quite happy to be left unattended ...  ;D

Hi Chris

A selection of tracks from the above recordings are on the playlist except for 'Genesis For Two Hand Piano' which I don't have I'm afraid ...

Great show DC!
Hope your coffee is premo blend!!
Your autopilot is never failed!
BUT!!--Stay up!-If you need!.

Great Music!!

Out of curiosity, when will the run end?  I want to make sure I can catch as much of it as possible, especially since we run on different time zones!!!  I can't miss one of my all-time favorite groups' block!

This is my first brush with this "site".... Roans_lady turned me on to it. I've been waiting all my life for a station like this one. I don't see the point in making a request,  :-*   there's no need here.


that's how happy I am to of come across "Steller Attractions"  I think I'll just listen....yeah.....listen......

The Munich '76 show sounds fantastic. Really enjoying it. Did they just do White Mountain?. Excellent! ;D

It's provisionally set to end @ 9:00pm (GMT) but then again it may run a bit longer ... just depends how many people are tuned-in at that time ...  ::)

Dee, can you please let me know where this beautiful version of "Here Comes the Flood" comes from?
I'm almost speechless;  it's wonderful...

Thank you.

It's from an imported 'Peter Gabriel' compilation CD. I'll dig it out and let you know the name ...

Good to see you're still listening !!

all Genesis...all the time...

I've really enjoyed it...thanks again Dee.

Planning on a "Yes" marathon?

Absolutely !! The two we held towards the end of last year proved very successful. Sometime next month - as usual, keep your eye on the 'news' section of the forum.

Thanks to everyone who tuned in and made it a BIG success. Even with the extra bandwidth both servers hit full capacity on several occasions during the last twenty four odd hours.

Here's looking to the ' Yes Marathon' next month !!  ;D

Remember - the regular playlist will always include a large selection of 'Genesis' and related material.

Thanks again !!

Dee

Congatulations Dee, you are indeed the Prog Master! 8)

Dare I say it, I think I enjoyed that more than the Yes sessions. Maybe it's because I don't listen to Genesis as much as I do Yes, so I was reaquainted with some classics I hadn't heard in a while.  ;D

hi
thank Roans Lady for intoducing me to your site too

Thanks for taking the time to sign-up 'Yesman'.

Indeed, yet another 'Yes Marathon' will be played in the next couple of weeks or so. Watch this space !!

Judging by the positive feedback of these 'special' sets of music, I hope to cobble together some more in the not-to-distant future. As usual, I'll update the news section of the forum as and when things occur.

Enjoy.
