My long promised isolated keyboard performance of Firth of Fifth - minus the piano intro WHICH WAS NOT PLAYED LIVE during the 1976-1977 tours which The Genesis Show is performing on the road. I play along with Seconds Out here, but the effects are what were used on the 1976 tour (Leslie instead of Boss Chorus, Echoplex instead of Roland Space Echo).

Just checked your other videos... New subscriber right here !!!
Love your rendition of Apocalypse in 9/8 on the organ. I've seen a lot of great musicians perform this section over the years on RUclips and I think yours is the best !
Shouldn't you use the flute on the Mellotron ?
The arrangements I’m doing are the 1976/1977 versions. At this point Tony used the M400, and his was stocked only with Violins, Choir, and Brass.
@@mattthomasoverdrive4514 Got it !
Mellotron D-4000, ARP Pro Soloist, mini-Moog, Fender Rhodes ? Damn, what a dream rack !!!!!
Great video, been looking for juicy info like this! I’m in a Prog band and I want to sound more like Steve
Matt, thanks for such a great and pristine interpretation :) I really appreciate the notes about the Arp Pro DGX settings, could you share also the drawbars settings you used on your Hammond B3 organ?
I didn’t have this info at the time I made this video, but here are the drawbar settings of the following presets directly from the Hammond T Series owner’s manual: Upper - Theater Brass 16’: 848868666 Lower - Ensemble 8’: 008666444
Just came across this cover. Matt-Man has a lot of talent. Couldn't tell the difference between Tony and Matt. Dawg got talent.
A quick note/question/comment about the verse progression: is that really all he's playing? In the studio version and every live version I hear more bass notes in them (ie when it goes from F-C-Dm, there's a distinct piano voice at the bottom going F2-E2-D2) and an overall wider spread in the voicings. Have you looked into that? Am I hearing more in the isolated track than what's there, or is it actually played differently than in this video? Great work as always.
That’s what I hear/see, but I’ve always focused on the Three Sides Live version, film and album. There is a chance I’ll never play this song again because my band spent the past 5 years doing the 1980-1982 tours, and now we’re doing 1976-1978 for the next few years.
Is it pretty easy to switch presets with your foot?
I honestly haven’t tried. I used these pedals for these videos but not in a performance setting.
9:30 this sounds like the Rugrats theme
I wish Behringer would make a Pro-Soloist clone.
I would buy this in a heartbeat!
Hey Matt, are there any effects on the MKII Brass??
Everything is going through a Leslie rotary simulator. After Willow Farm the Echoplex is turned on.
Hi, do you know more about Tony's mod you were talking about at 14:58? Also I couldnt't find the facebook page you were talking about, do you still have the link by any chance? I would greatly appreciate it
I don’t. I really tried to find out more but I don’t think they fully understood enough about how Hammond percussion typically works to be able to compare it to the mods.
You really nailed the keyboard parts and sounds on your band's Duke performance. That record is my personal favorite Genesis album.
Been struggling to decide on a clonewheel organ and you've convinced me.
I still really like it!
Love your Genesis covers and gear rundowns. Question, would you ever be open to maybe showing if the Prophet 10 can get a convincing RMI 368 sound? I know buying a Prophet would be way more expensive, but finding a 368 or 368X on the secondhand market is difficult at best. For the same reason I was pleased to see you demo some of the Pro Soloist sounds on the Behringer 2600 as I would much rather buy that than spend 4x as much on an a vintage preset synth with limited features, assuming one would even be available. Besides that, the Hammond and Mellotron are easily available new.
What I could definitely do is create a Prophet 10 pad and use an MXR Phase 100 and chorus to replicate the In The Cage/Eleventh Earl of Mar/Duchess sound he did on the Polymoog and Prophets 5/10. What you describe is certainly a worthy experiment, but I suspect I would only come as close as Tony did, such as the middle section of One For The Vine.
@@mattthomasoverdrive4514that's fair. I know the Korg SV-2 has an Electra Piano/Harpsichord preset but you don't get organ mode with the long sustain. I figure since the RMI uses divide down architecture like a combo organ it probably wouldn't have the exact same sound as an 8 or 10 voice poly synth.
The RMI actually has 68 oscillators - one per key! Don’t quote me on the following, but I believe each generates a tone and the piano/harpsichord/lute settings are different fixed filter, and organ mode and sustain pedal are different amp envelopes.
@@mattthomasoverdrive4514it's such a niche keyboard I doubt Behringer will make a clone anytime soon 😂 probably more likely we'll see a Pro DGX from them first haha. One thing I'll say as a Tony Banks fan the Quadra was the one keyboard he had that I wasn't as big a fan of compared to some of the other poly synths like the Polymoog and the Prophet 5/10. And as far as ARP synths I always thought his 2600 sounded the best. For some songs like One For the Vine I prefer the sound of the Yamaha CP-70 but for some of the older tunes I like the quirkiness of the 368X like The Lamb. I'll probably just get a 73 key midi controller and use software for the sounds that can't be as easily obtained through hardware.
Mr.Banks would be extremely proud of your rendition of his magnum opus Supper's Ready, you are brilliant, perfect in every way, thank you for sharing.👍😎
I never "got into" Genesis until the mid-1980's... But then I bought the back catalogue & listened to them all quite intently. *_"In that Quiet Earth"_* had always reminded me of the theme music to the Leonard Nimoy Television series, *"In Search Of"* ...
Nice to hear a real RMI on this! Yours looks in great condition too. Did you consider sticking the pedals just to the casing? I think on the Selling tour, Tony still had the Fender just sitting on top of it. Regarding the Fender Blender, I think you got the 4 knob re-issue from the 90ies? As an anecdote: the circuit of those is actually not like the originals. Apparently when they were making the Kevin Shields edition, Kevin pointed out that it just didn't sound like the original he had. After then comparing the circuit to the one from Kevin, Fender found out that they got the circuit wrong and they corrected it in the Shields Blender (plus adding additional controls). Regarding the Lamb: in principle the composition is so that it starts faster and then there is a ritartando to drop the tempo when the band comes in. It's just that I find that Tony often is a bit sloppy there. Sometimes he gets the "difficult run" wrong, and during the bridge it often is the case that Tony and Phil (or Peter) get out of sync and either one of the two tries to compensate. Always has been the case. I think it's also why they cut the intro section from Carpet Crawlers and at some point they started with piano and hi-hat so that the tempo gets more locked (well actually, they added a bass part to it too at the last 2 tours so that was on tape). I assume you love the Neo Ventilator as rotary speaker? Im considering one (and maybe get a real Hammond T). It's also funny that things which in principle are not so complicated are far more complex to pull off in a band setting. I like that you share your experiences there, many people don't know that it's not a matter of just knowing your part and off you go. I learned that the hard way in my teens when I started all of this. Playing with others around you is complex.
Yeah, this 368x I just got is one of the cleanest vintage instruments I’ve ever owned. I’ve rethought how to deal with those pedals a bunch, in the end the pedalboard is easiest to set up and break down. Thanks for the info on the Blender - I’d seen there was another reissue but haven’t looked into it since I already had this earlier reissue. I only use it for Volcano and Quiet Earth and it gets the job done. I always assumed the Carpet intro was dropped from Lamb Stew because it was redundant with the title track bridge, and they just kept that arrangement standard. I just listened to the Shrine 1975 radio show and thought, yeah this was always hard to do. I do like the Vent, but I’m only using it on the slow speed in this context. I don’t think any plugin or pedal has nailed the fast Leslie sound, yet. That said, I’ve used both the GSI and IK versions of organ/rotary for recording sessions and nobody complained. Collaborating with my band mates is the best part of this gig! I enjoy the moment it all comes together in rehearsal the most. I can own all this gear and practice all these parts, but if there aren’t four other equals to do this with, it would be a slog.
Brilliant!
Magico! 👏👏👏👏👏
The 2600 is one of my favorite parts of A Trick of The Tail, Wind & Wuthering, and And Then There Were Three. I especially love that Tony even brought the 2600 on the 1978 tour; those lead lines on the soundboards and bootleg recordings absolutely soar! Very much hope to see a 1978 tour recreation in the future!
I love the 1978 tour: Tony’s best live rig and an underrated set list. My band is not excited about it at all.
Wow! Great job.
Hi Matt! Your videos are of great help and insight for us Genesis TB keyboard fans. Thanks a ton! Cherry Audio’s site for Quadra mentions to have emulated the 14-stage phase shifter in theirs, together with several enhancements. Not sure if they’re referring to the previous version or not, but the update of their notes is from September 23rd 2024. Maybe they fixed it. I’m looking for a plug-in to make the Genesis Quadra sounds, and seeking for the best choice.
Boss has a new space echo.
❤
Yes Matt, OVERDUBS VIDEO!!! Wee!!! Would love that.
Magnificent 👏👏
Bravo... Me la sono cantata tutta... per una volta non l'ho fatto io il tastierista😂❤
You are doing an outstanding job, congratulations!
Now that you have separated it from its grouping I can hear a lot of Celtic influence. Sincerely well done Matt. Very well played my super maestro who yet unlocks a door for us all. What a guy Tony is. Totally underrated in any form. Thank you again Matt! 🥇
Matt you are a superb guy! Hopefully this will not be the last we hear from you in 2024! Please be well bro. Thank you so much.

Any suggestions as to what pedal or software in 2024 could produce that wonderful HiFly phase shift modulation at 7.28 and 7.58? I have neither the time, money or inclination to add myself to the current HiFly waiting list (!) so if there's anything that the knowledgeable folk who've commented could recommend I'd be very grateful. Thanks!
Before Steve got the Hi Fli he used an MXR Phase 45 for some of that.
D16 Group's Fazortan 2 allows one to customise one's phasing to a large extent, and I've managed to recreate the Hi-Fli's phaser sound in it.
merry Christmas Matt 🎹💖🌠
Your channel for me has been the "revelation" of 2024, so really thank you!!
Any full videos of each song? even paid ones ?
The full half hour suite will go live tonight on the Genesis Show page.
@@mattthomasoverdrive4514 Thank you
Can't wait to hear the Mama stuff!
How much longer will you guys be doing the trick tour? I gotta catch it!
Definitely into next fall. We were thinking of doing two nights in a weekend, one show 1976, another 1977.
for a second in the thumbnail I thought you were Brian Eno working on the lamb
Was it the Minimoog or the bald guy with an oddly shaped head? 😂
Here’s the Lamb track: sonicelements.bandcamp.com/album/it-a-celebration-of-the-lamb-lies-down-on-broadway
I've seen this band twice in the Buffalo Ny area. They are very very good and worth seeing
Oh that Xanadu solo sounded beautiful! (And yes, the Minimoog is better than the Pro Soloist, and also better than the Odyssey)
Wow, that all sounds great! Would love to see studio track demos/tutorials. Yes, please - All In a Mouse's Night.
Congrats Matt on your contribution to Dave's Lamb tribute. That is so soooo awesome!! I can't speak for many but I personally would LOVE for you to do a 1981 video of Firth of Fifth as Abacab and Three Sides Live are my favourite tours. Is there a chance you and your band will do a Lamb tour for it's 50th?? At least you have the equipment. I am getting that LM Drum. Great time to be a Genesis fan...as are all times.
I had a feeling you’d be up for another 1981 track!
@@mattthomasoverdrive4514 Haha!! I hate being predictable. Dance On A Volcano/Los Endos, Supper's Ready and Musical Box from 81/82 would be way cool as well. Hey, I can dream can't I?
Wooooo looking forward to the new year 🎉🎉 (and no a minimoog is not better then a soloist 😉)
This is awesome! Special shoutout to the outstanding vocalist hitting some pretty challenging notes…bravo gentlemen! 👏👏👏
This is brilliant!!!
