Phil and Chester, two of the best.
What a fantastic album! One of my faves! 10/8 time signature epic!
If they'd brought this back for the 1980 tour, with Phil's voice being that much grittier, it would've killed everyone in the venue.
I second that!
Yep
Three sides live baby
Imagine having to keep a 10/8 rhythm with incredibly difficult fills in between and having to add hi-hat and tom accents. That must’ve been a nightmare for Chester and the band to play live. Definitely one of the most complicated songs in Genesis catalogue.
He played with weather report and Zappa, I am sure he really had no problem with this song
@@jamesdunn5495 Actually, he did have problems. And he was the world's greatest drummer in my book.
Sure, he kept the rhythm (of course he did!), but some of the impossible fills (should that be "phills"? 😅) are missing.
Gosh, so it is!
What a gem! In all their glory.
Can't have enough of this song.
Nice vocals !! No auto- tune or effects. Uncle Phil at his best!!!!
Probably the most challenging thing Chester played on the drums with Genesis.
A Man In The Corner was a real challenge to him. Look up on TH-cam Phill's comments about Chester regarding this song.
Excellent vocals from Phil
Amazing, as always!
Whoa!!!! At 3:58, coming out of that keyboard solo, SWEET!!! EXCELLENT recording!!!
Simply fantastic👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋⭐⭐⭐⭐
wow
👏👏👏👏...such a difficult song to play live...think thats why the changed the set list and only did this ditti a few times
actually changed because Phils voice was getting weak from it
@@brianadams5088 Perfectly normal. The same, for example, with lead Bb trumpet. You can write very high stuff for studio recordings, but you shouldn't wear out a performer live, inviting desaster. It took a lot of courage for Phil to have a shot at songs such as Down And Out or Back In NYC. These simply have a lot of voice shredding high notes, such as the Bb 4 here.
During a 2020 interview on UK radio before The Last Domino? Tour the interviewer was praising Phil's drumming on Down And Out and Phil said he "didn't remember the song." It really made me sad to hear him say that.
I was under the impression the song was never actually played live? Ditched during rehearsals? Probably one of my favourites.
It was played live a few times during the 1978 Tour. Probably dropped from the setlist as it was quite difficult for Phil to sing in a whole set. Some says that also Chester might have been happy as they omitted it from the setlist. 🎶🙂 Here you can hear one of the live performances: th-cam.com/video/0mYIRpBnCN8/w-d-xo.html 😉
Thanks so much!@@DML1978
You're welcome 😉🎶
I saw them at The Spectrum in Philadelphia on March 31 on this tour. From 15 rows out! This was in the set, the sound was extraordinary!! The keyboards in particular stood out!! I also saw them at Madison Square Garden in July of 78, they had substituted "Ballad Of Big" for "Down and Out" at this show. This is my favorite track from ATTWT hands down!!!
Wish there was a version on three sides live.
Chester could definitely kerp the 10/8 Rythym , but was missing some of the fills, probably, concernrd about getting lost
At the time (1976-1980), Phil used to overdub most tom-tom fills anyway. This is apparent in some isolated tracks from Wind & Wuthering that can be heard here on TH-cam. So no wonder Chester "stripped down" (so to speak) some of the parts he had to play on his own.
@@Fabiopalmieri67 Yes Phil did some overdubs, but only because he could in a studio recording. Listen to his drumming on The Lamb - any live version. He kills it each time with insane grooves, accents, kicks, fills, embellishments, rhythmic displacement, you name it. I know ....And Then There Were Three inside and out. To my old ears it sounds like Phil played Down And Out in one take and only added some percussion tracks to spice it up.
Excellent. Couple of mixed up words but excellent anyway..
Very hard song for the drummer.
👏👏👏👏💯❌💯❤
Wasn't Banks using the ARP 2600 on this tour? And the other synth was the Polymoog,
Yes, you're right. I'd change that only on the info text but not in the video. 😉🎶
Yes
To me it sounds like Mike on guitar and Daryl on bass.
Actually it is. Wrong description and pics. Sorry. 💁♂️🎶😉
Listening carefully one can hear Phil's tambourine pounding away.
Genesis answer to 'Have A Cigar' (but better)
... same song meaning, same lyrics quote
This should have opened the Duke tour instead of Deep In The Motherlode .
Come fa a tenere il ritmo?
Alla batteria c'è Chester Thompson.
2:04 LOL
Really tough one for Phil to sing. Some of the high notes sound out of his reach at the time.
I don't think that he missed the high notes at every concert during that track. It's often due to the shape of his voice on the actual day. Sometimes it goes well, and sometimes it doesn't. 😉
Sounds bloody good to me
@John Lane drink enough pints of hard cider and anything will sound good.
@@MackeyWilliams whatever works for you
That's why this track was dropped from live rotation.
