| I've seen "Birdy" in the soundtrack section of a big Soundwarehouse
in Dallas and maybe here in Colorado Springs. If you can't find
it in the rock section under Peter Gabriel, look in soundtracks.
I've seen the other either in a catalog or in the Digital Audio
"new releases" list. I've never seen one in a store.

| 507.2 | Gabriel CD'S ..... | USHS01::PARRACO | | Wed Oct 29 1986 15:49 | 17 |

Pete is a particular favorite of mine and I have the following :
All Genesis featuring Gabriel : Nursery Cryme , Foxtrot, Trespass,
Selling England by the Pound,
Lamb lies down on Broadway ......
in addition to So and Security, I have Birdy and Plays Live, which
is not the complete Live LP on CD, but a "best of", around 65
minutes...
I found Plays Live in Boston, near B.U. on Newton Street (off
Commonwealth) and Birdy is always in the Soundtrack section, call
around to see who sells/orders imports ......
I've never seen P.G. I, II, or III (as they're called in the UK)
in any catalogs or stores, if you see them, LET ME KNOW !!!!!!!!!

| RE .2
Could you give an overview of the earlier Genesis CD's you have.
I have Trick of the Tail and Second's Out (both post Gabriel
productions). Although I'm familiar with some of the music off
the CD's you mentionned, I'm curious about the recordings. (i.e.
How's the master?) Are any of these REQUIRED purchases for
Gabriel/Genesis fans!
Gabriel -in concert- November 21, 1986!

| Birdy and Plays Live were both on sale here in the UK when I looked
at lunchtime. Paeter Gabriel 4 (the last studio one before So) is
also available.

| 507.5 | The "real" Genesis. | COOKIE::ROLLOW | Redneck cookin'... Fryit! | Fri Oct 31 1986 10:55 | 14 |
| re: .3
One Genesis fan I know doesn't consider post-Gabriel to be "real"
Genesis. Gabriel based Genesis and Collins based Genesis sound
very different. It is entirely possible that you might not like
both.
"The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" is probably the best of both
worlds. If you can find it I recommended musicallly. I haven't
heard the CD, but the early Genesis I have sounds good ("Trespass"
and "Nursery Cryme").

For the true Gabriel afficionado .......
Genesis - as an entity, has gone thru major contortions and upheaval.
Peter was the driving force behind the creation of the
band. The albums he appears on are definitive as far as
tracing his musical growth. Unfortunately, the masters
are not up to the standards of today's Genesis recordings.
However, "Selling England by the Pound" sounds quite
respectable, as does "The Lamb lies Down on Broadway".
These 2 are, for me, Pete at his best, and are unmistakably
"Gabriel". In fact, "the Lamb" was the primary cause of
his leaving Genesis, the other band members being disgruntled
by his "total control" of the album's production .......
I also have the 1972 Genesis "LIVE" album on CD, which
is fairly a crude recording, but a unique insight to the
band who defined modern progressive rock.
I will mention Yes / King Crimson , etc.................
who are also on my Top 10 list .........................

| Re .2
Not being a P.G. Fan, i don't know all his album but yesterday
I saw the one where he(?) look like to be in a racing car
(blue offset). Rather expensive (it was 29 or 35 $ Can i.e.:
20 or 25 US$ + 9% sale tax)... Is it what you are looking for?
If you absolutely want it, you can always communicate with
me at DTN 632-7918, to make arrangements.

| 507.16 | Is SO DDD | HPSCAD::FENNELL | | Tue Jan 13 1987 08:50 | 7 |
| Is SO DDD? I looked all over the disk and the box for any clues but found
none. I saw SECURITY at Strawberries and it mentioned on the back of the
box that the disk was digitally recorded, so I figured SO would be as well.
Listening to the disk, it sounds like it is ADD. Can anyone shed some
light on this?

re. .16
I wondered the same thing when I purchased this CD. I don't know
exactly where I saw that it was DDD, but I think it was in the little
lyric book that comes with the CD. I agree with you when you say
that it sounds like ADD however. There is a very tinny sound in
his voice... It's got to make you wonder!....
|
| 507.18 | Probably ADD. | COOKIE::ROLLOW | It's kind of fun to be extinct. | Tue Jan 13 1987 11:06 | 4 |
| I think an article in "Digital Audio and Compact Disc Review"
said he went with ADD because it gave the sound he wanted in
the bass. I wouldn't be surprised to see a mix of analog and
digital on the same track someday.
|
| 507.19 | "So" sound quality | TLE::WARD | | Tue Jan 13 1987 13:46 | 15 |
| Yes, I read the same article in Digital Audio. In it, Pete made clear
that "So" is an analog recording. I have a question about the sound
quality of this disc:
Does anyone notice that there is more bass on this disc than
on most others in his/her collection? I'm not sure whether it's
the disc I have (the British import -- Virgin, I think), my
system or my ears. The highs are all there, though -- actually
there's a bit more high end there than on most discs in my
collection, too. (I can adjust my highs and lows, but it's a
real pain when most discs follow a certain consistency --
especially with regard to the high end.) I wonder whether this
problem is caused by the disc's analog origins . . .

What is the world coming to ?? !!!
First, "So" hits the charts "Big Time" and then Pete gets on
the cover of Rolling Stone, and finally he gets hisself
nominated for some major "pop" Grammys.
Is this the same old Pete who used to wear Bat Wings and put
on the "Slipperman" head ??????
Glad he's achieved some financial success, but hope he does
not inherit the Genesis "gone-pop syndrome" !!!!!
PS - So is definitely AAD .......he wanted the midrange to be
"deafening: ..
The concert in Houston was EXCELLENT , not long enough
tho' , but they never are ..........
