  • Peter Gabriel - Here Comes The Flood (Live in Athens 1987)
    Available Now: mercury-studio...
    In October 1987 after many months on the road, it was in the elevated surroundings of the hillside open-air theatre at Lycabettus overlooking Athens, that the "So" tour came to a climactic close. The three nights were filmed in what was the first-ever Peter Gabriel concert to be committed to film. As a concert film, it was brilliantly shot and has now been equally brilliantly remastered, a crystal-clear record of Gabriel and band in their mid-80s pomp. The viewer is placed right in the heart of the action all the way, from the band's synchronised choreography on opening number "This Is The Picture", right through to the skin-pricking closer "Biko". In between, we're lost in music, spellbound by the spectacle, totally absorbed by the imperfection-free tightness of a band that's been on the road for so long.

    So glad I’ll be seeing Peter Next October in Palm Springs. In 1980 I was 16 years old and had been a die hard Genesis / Gabriel fan since I was 14. 94.7 KMET (the mighty MET) announced he was doing a record signing for his new album (3, or “melt”) at Tower Records on Sunset BLVD during the day on a school day. I begged my parents to let me miss school so that I could drive to Hollywood from the San Fernando Valley to meet my hero. They said yes. So I waited in line with scores of other people. At least an hour passed as the line slowly advanced. I waited, with Nursery Cryme in my hands while Tower Records played the new record over and over and we all listened. The crowd was mostly quietly listening the entire time. When it was finally my turn, he warmly said hello and asked my name. I told him my name and he signed the record. I was too nervous to say anything else, although I longed to tell him how much I loved him, and how much his music had meant to me. It is such a vivid, perfect memory. And it was a perfect day. ❤

Και με το πρώτο πρωινό πάλι πίσω, η διπλωματική δεν περίμενε! Thanks Eagle Rock for this upload. What a memories!!!

Greetings to all good people, who want to listen, from Serbia (or "dark" socialist Yugoslavia where generation of my parents enjoyed Genesis, Pink Floyd (I still have Dark Side of the Moon published in Yugoslavia under licence by Yugoton :)) and other great bands creating music that is no longer made anywhere in this shinny capitalism we got.

    Is that a Yamaha CP-80 Peter is playing?

    • @zibbybone
      @zibbybone 4 года назад

      Yes. Sounds like it's got chorusing and "shimmer" reverb courtesy of the Eventide processor in the rack to his left. I miss my CP-80. I was offered "silly" money for it from a local recording studio. I found a smaller CP-70 the next week which I still have, but has never sounded as good as that CP-80. Videos of both on my channel.

  • @JamesHarkerMusic
    @JamesHarkerMusic 8 лет назад +4

    It is extremely irritating that the audio has been somehow pitched up by a semitone to Dm. There's no way PG sang it at this pitch - you can tell just from listening - he sounds unnaturally high. I can't think why this was allowed to happen. An incredible moment by an incredible artist somewhat ruined.

    • @JamesHarkerMusic
      @JamesHarkerMusic 7 лет назад +1

      Something has been fucked up in post-production. PG won't have sung it on stage in this key. I'm not a tech, but it's possible that the original tapes are too slow when played at the correct pitch. It sounds petty to make a fuss, but we're not listening to what the audience heard, which is a massive shame
