My INTERPRETATION of this incredible live track by Genesis. It is not note for note by any means; I have not studied video footage and I have not seen transcriptions. This is learnt 'by ear'. So go easy on me!
In my view this is one of the greatest pieces of rock music ever created, and this live performance is absolutely stunning. The drums by Phil & Chester obviously are epic, awesome, mind-numbingly great etc, but then again, the huge bass, the beautiful keyboards, the immense guitar and of course the vocals, are just sublime. Phil is not just a great drummer -- his singing on this is absolutely brilliant.
I had to split this cover somewhere to fit it on YouTube, and so chose the end of Lover's Leap for Part 1, and the end of Willow Farm for Part 2. Part 3 obviously has the epic 9/8 and Eggs is Eggs bit. The vids overlap slightly and this is all one take. Hope the splits do not take away too much from your enjoyment.
LOVER'S LEAP- the 'easiest' bit of this cover, if there is one, I guess. I have not really got any specific comments to make on the drumming here. I imagine Chester does not do the 32's (is he even doing the 16s?) -- Phil sounds like he is using a tambourine -- but I thought I would try and get away with 'em. My first prolonged '32' only just makes it.......
