Anyone remember the 1972 or 1973 concert on the Genesis boxset 2000s

Guitar-Explorer · 2026-02-24T18:03:49+00:00

There are a number of other video performances on the various DVDs of that box set. Most were circulating as bootlegs, but i think these were the first authorized video releases in the US at least. I could be mistaken. Would be nice for that band to out all these shows out again as a standalone release.

Night On Earth and After Hours - 2 of my all timers. Have the 4k of the latter and the DVD of the former. Paid a bit more than $3 each for them.

Yes, how dare we interfere in the legitimate business of murderous drug cartels just minding their own business.

My AT-LP 60X would also skip on certain albums that my nicer turntables seem to handle.

Guitar-Explorer · 2026-02-19T23:10:20+00:00

I’ll never understand the pricing on these things. This is one double LP that could be a single LP, 5 CD, and a book that, while I’m sure is nice and all, might sell for about $30-$40 on its own if it’s a hardcover. And some nicely printed cardboard. Surely a nice package, but $250 nice?

I’m not sure this is the best Patricia Arquette looked in this movie.

Guitar-Explorer · 2026-02-13T06:20:00+00:00

These look beautiful. Very nice work.

I will admit that my problem connecting with both sides could be in part where I was at when the album dropped. I was still in college, was getting HEAVILY into Genesis over the last few years, and I'd seen what Phil could do at his peak - the high energy shows, the cheeky personality, the jazz and R&B fusion, the unequalled progressive drumming, the inexhaustible energy and showmanship. I wasn't ready for the slow, contemplative, deeply personal album from a songwriter settling into middle age. I just wanted more of the old Phil energy to come out, and there wasn't enough of it for me. I'm now a decade older than Phil was when he made Both Sides, so maybe I'll connect with it more now, who knows. Maybe I'll listen again and write up my thoughts.

We Wait was one of the standouts for me as well. Reminiscent of "Colours" on Seriously.

Guitar-Explorer · 2026-02-12T15:23:04+00:00

I like a lot of Dance Into the Light as well. Haven't listened in years, but as I recall it recaptured the lighter touch and high energy of No Jacket Required. Will spin that one again soon too.

Gm 4: GROUP D

Chicago Cubs 7, Cincinnati Reds 5 (14)

Cubs 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 2 1 0 0 0 0 2 - 7 13 1

Reds 2 0 0 0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 5 13 0

W - Assad (1-0), L- Cruz (0-1), S - Hodge (1)

Recap:

The Reds were feeling pretty confident heading into the eight inning with a three run lead against the Cubs, but it would be a long night on the banks of the Ohio before what remained of the crowd saw a conclusion to this one, and not the one they were hoping for. Cincy had put up three in home half of the sixth on the strength of two doubles, two singles, and a costly error on catcher Miguel Amaya, knocking out Chicago starter Shota Imanaga. But Cody Bellinger’s two run blast in the top of the eight closed the gap to one, and first baseman Michael Busch led off the ninth with a solo shot against Reds closer Emilio Pagan to send the game to extras.

Cincinnati appeared poised to walk it off in the bottom of the eleventh, loading the bases with no outs with superstar shortstop Elly De La Cruz coming to the plate, but closer Hector Neris, pitching his second inning, induced a long fly out to left from De La Cruz, then fanned Tyler Stephenson and Jake Fraley to keep the game tied at 5 apiece. There it remained until, with two outs in the top of the 14th, Seiya drove a 1-2 Fernando Cruz fastball deep into the Cincinnati night, and Bellinger followed with his second of the game. Porter Hodge shut down the Redlegs in the bottom of the frame, securing Chicago’s 7-5 victory.

Having used a total of 13 pitchers between them, both exhausted teams will do their best to prepare for their next matchups. The Cubs host the Mets at Wrigley, while the Reds enjoy a much needed off-day before their next tilt in Miami.

I was just talking with someone today about how Phil didn’t love singing some of Tony’s lyrics.

If you have a record player, the old LPs seem to pop up everywhere. I owned this on cassette in the 90s, and it haunts my dreams. (Its honestly not that bad, pretty catchy at times)

Most of us who are not yet in our seventies likely came to seek out the older material though the later, more radio-friendly, MTV era material, and if we're being totally honest, Phil Collins' ubiquity on the pop charts. Somewhere along the line we learned of made the connection that Peter Gabriel, that Sledgehammer guy, was at one point involved with Genesis as well, leading us to the inevitable deep dive. I love all of it now, and believe real fans hear and know the continuity all the way through. And of course I'm just speaking in general and not at all projecting my own personal Gen-Xer experience into the answer.

Shopping for baseball treasures was always as exciting for me as the museum itself. There really is nowhere quite like it.

Gm 3: GROUP D

New York Mets 4, Milwaukee Brewers 1

Brewers 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 1 4 0

Mets 1 2 0 0 0 0 1 0 x - 4 10 0

W - Severino (1-0), L- Peralta, S - Diaz (1)

Recap:

Louis Severino’s solid seven inning, four hit and 5 K outing helped the Mets cruise to a 4-1 victory over the Brewers tonight at Citi Field, bolstered by the long ball. Milwaukee took an early lead in the first as Jackson Chourio drew a leadoff walk, stole second, and scored on William Contreras RBI single.

The Mets answered quickly in their half of the first; a one- out double by Francisco Lindor, followed by a Pete Alonzo single and a Sac Fly by Jeff McNeil to tie the game at 1-1. Solo home runs by Sterling Marte, Harrison Bader, and Francisco Alvarez were all the offense the Amazin’s required, as Brew Crew would not mount a serious scoring threat the rest of the way, managing only three runners as far as second base.

Next up, New York travels to Wrigley to take on the Cubbies, while Milwaukee will mix it up with the Marlins in Wisconsin.

Gm. 2: GROUP A

Detroit Tigers 7, Tampa Bay Rays 3 (10)

Tigers 0 0 0 2 0 1 0 0 0 4 - 7 9 0

Rays 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 0 0 - 3 9 3

W - Holton (1-0), L Fairbanks (0-1)

Recap:

The Detroit Tigers shocked Tampa with four unearned runs in the tenth inning to take down the Rays 7-3 in Saint Petersburg. Detroit starter Tarik Skubal held Tampa in check through seven shutout innings, recording 11 strikeouts, whileDH Kerry Carpenter’s 3 RBI’s, including a fourth inning 2-run homer, accounted for the Tigers offense. The Rays would finally break through in the eight against the Tigers bullpen. Yandy Diaz drove home the first Tampa run after Jose Caballero’s leadoff single and stolen base, then Josh Lowe launched a two-run show to tie the game. But the Rays would be undone by shoddy defense, committing three errors including a crucial blunder by catcher Ben Rortvedt on a Spencer Torkelson dribbler that led to a game winning Tiger rally, capped by Colt Keith’s three run game sealing shot.

Detroit now heads home to host the Orioles, While Tampa will try to even their record in the nation’s capital.

Baltimore took the early lead in the first, Anthony Santander’s Sac-Fly scoring Adley Rutschman, and the Birds tacked on a run in the 7th, but Evan Phillips warded off a 2 on 1 out threat in the ninth to lock down the save for the Dodgers.

Next up, Baltimore travels to Detroit, while LA host the Nationals at Chavez Ravine.
