No waiting room will be the same. It doesn’t get better than this. Imagine the audience thinking “oh yeah, the waiting room” next song please... And than this is served by the band!
A few months ago I read an article where the writer said he didn't think Genesis's music aged well compared to some other Prog. rock bands from the seventies. No clue who wrote it cuz he's clueless and have no reason to remember his name nor the article. This is pure genius! The entire Lamb story is amazing, the story, lyrics, music, everything. The only crime is that they didn't take steps to preserve it visually. That is an amazing loss.
After watching a lot of Genesis interviews I have to say they seem like a bunch of pretty normal but very talented guys. This makes me wonder how in the HELL they cranked out these nine minutes of musical psychedelic madness on a whim. I am convinced they made a deal with the devil to create this. Jk. I wish they would have made a whole album in this style cause it would be brilliant.
@@bonzoslater8895 This song was nothing to do with eno. His sole contribution to The Lamb was tweaking a few knobs on the vocal channel on a couple of tracks. As Tony Banks said "I'm not sure why he was even credited"
Wow. This is the Genesis we wanted to hear more of but never really got. Once Peter departed a few weeks later. Goosebumps listening to this. Stunning.
I never liked The Waiting Room, until I heard the Liverpool version. This is f**king brilliant. Sounds like one of the crew or maybe Gabriel himself is messing round with a radio, tuning in and out of stations at one point. This is quite a scary version. Even the Southampton version, 3 nights before this is different and nowhere near as good. This is the second Liverpool show - I went to 3rd, on the following night, but can't remember much about it, because I was too busy trying to grope my first girlfriend, without much success - a bit like "Counting Out Time". haha.
....sono canzoni come questa che mi convincono sempre piu' che COLLINS e' il piu' grande batterista della storia........tanti non saranno d'accordo ma.............E' LA VERITA'...........come nessuno ha raggiunto l'incredibile ARTE MUSICALE dei GENESIS........
Unbelievable ! Never heard this version before ! Sounds like Peter and Phil are possessed by the devil of music and drums ! How much higher than that could they go ? Phil had four arms and four legs there ! Thank You so much for sharing !
2:00 - 2:05 Steve is hinting to Dancing With The Moonlight Knight. The Waiting Room was the only moment when Genesis played free jamming, the Band usually played live like the studio Album version in every tour. Sorry for my English
This is great! Its almost like they're creating a new genre of music as they play this. Listen to between 5:05 and 5:09 with Tony's choir strings playing with that hip hop style beat that Phil's playing - it's unlike anything I've ever heard. I kinda wish they would have explored that particular sound here a little longer. But this is crazy. It also sounds like Pete is either singing into some kind of distortion machine or he pre-recorded it but that voice in the background def sounds like Pete.
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? This is definitly the weirdest Version of The Waiting I have ever heard. But hm, I said that already a few days ago when I've uploaded the Dortmund Version on my Channel, i thought "This is weird", but this here... The most weird bit of Genesis ever :D
They really stretched The Waiting Room out after Pete told them he was leaving. Listen to the Wembley, Groneigen, Dortmund versions. The USA versions are tame by comparison. Un-frigging-real.
The best version I have ever heard of one of my favorite Genesis songs. The original live version inspired me to use the pitch knob on my Mellotron while using the choir patch.
Sound engineer manipulating the feed between the stage and the FOH mix. Pete may have had those capabilities from the stage via a sound box. I know Mission Of Burma had a guy (Martin Swope and later Bob Weston) perched just off stage to manipulate sounds in a similar manner.
it is a superb version indeed! i really love how bands used to explore their album tracks alot further in the 70"S, this has all the ingredients! they could of released the liverpool gig as an album!
I have always wondered who performed the brilliant vibraphone solo on the many live versions of this track. It appears at 2:50 on this version. It can’t be Phil, as he is heard doing some furious Tom Tom rolls whilst the solo is playing. I’ve always thought it might be PG. impressive solo anyway.
It sounds like it is Phil actually. If you listen closely the tom tom rolls stop and the vibes start. Both don't play at the same time. He had the kit set to where it was all setup in a circle around him so he had his roto toms and timbales to the left of him and the vibes were to the left of those so he went in a circle. Quite the monster on the drums! The best there is
OK , I'm gonna give this a shot : Phil Collins on Drums,percussion,allsorts,(vibes?)voices,(tape recorders?),Peter Gabriel on Tape recorders,Drums,percussion allsorts,synths(?),voices,vibes(?),Tony Banks on Keyboards, Organ,Synths,Bass pedals(?),effects,voices(?)percussion(?),Michael Rutherford on Bass guitar&pedals,electric 12-string(Combo?),voices,effects,(vibes?)percussion allsorts(?), Steve Hackett on Electric guitars,12-string,effects pedals,(vibes?),bass(?),voices(?),percussion(?)
I think it's also Phil Collins on Police Whistle.....I think he wore it around his neck and blew into it to give the band a cue to go to the next section of the jam. Pretty amazing when you consider he was also drumming at 9000 RPM!
Steve Hackett first name composer next to 90% tracks , here the list of several great songs of the 70s at the end of this Genesis documentary , the list of Tony Banks : th-cam.com/video/c2F4mMOyIFE/w-d-xo.html
Would love to know who's playing the Giantesque vibes at 3 minutes in? Was there a 2nd drummer (other than Gabriel) on stage here? What was the first concert with a 2nd drummer? I'm assuming it was Bruford in '76?
Yeah it was bruford in '76. He was the first 2nd drummer. It sounds like it is Phil actually. If you listen closely the tom tom rolls stop and the vibes start. Both don't play at the same time. He had the kit set to where it was all setup in a circle around him so he had his roto toms and timbales to the left of him and the vibes were to the left of those so he went in a circle.

This originally was called Evil Jam, as if inspired by a fallen creature.
They made a deal with Eno actually.....
The absolutely sold their souls either way. Phil Collins should be the most obvious

One totally unique jam, and boy is it brilliant!

Think I read it was Peter. It was either this show or another night when the crowd got excited because he acciden tuned to a Liverpool football match

The definitive version of Genesis's Avant Garde piece The Waiting Room. The band would not do anything as electic ever again.
I would say that The Brazilian is a pretty wild piece of music.
@@teetomthomas Brazilian is good but nowhere near wild and is very locked down compared to these later live Waiting Rooms where they really cut loose.
Maybe apocalypse in 9/8 is near.
Or perhaps do the neurotic, a bit less chaotic but equally powerful
Whodunnit is "out there"
PERFECT
Unbelievable ! Never heard this version before ! Sounds like Peter and Phil are possessed by the devil of music and drums ! How much higher than that could they go ? Phil had four arms and four legs there ! Thank You so much for sharing !
@bombero836
Si ma quì sono al top della sperimentazione. Peccato che molti non conoscano questo aspetto dei Genesis.
It seems here Genesis beat Henry Cow's improvisations! :)
Wild.
YEAH!!!#
Throbbing Gristle!
What instrument do they have making those screaming type noises? They show up on Gates of Delirium too...
Is this legit ??????
*Drum and guitar multiple covers :**th-cam.com/video/5r4mjQdV_mo/w-d-xo.html*
This seems to be digitally altered. Is it? The stereo mixing makes it suspect. If not, pretty hot for 1975!
Considering what Pink Floyd were doing with quad sound back then I wouldn't be surprised if there's a lot of stereo goodness originally

if i remember correctly, peter would tune a radio into different frequencies into the mic, hence the bit where it sounds almost like an audio drama
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?
This is definitly the weirdest Version of The Waiting I have ever heard. But hm, I said that already a few days ago when I've uploaded the Dortmund Version on my Channel, i thought "This is weird", but this here... The most weird bit of Genesis ever :D
Phil Collinssssssssssss crazyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy drummiiiiiinggggg!!!!!
this song was never played the same at any venue. during the tour it was always meant to be a weird jam.this is the best version they done i reckon
Incredible recording
@@AD65 its a soundboard
Phil's drumming the last four minutes. Speechless.
Amongst all the cool sounds on this is Mike's bass groove throughout.
There is no other. From 4:20 on Phil brings percussion to its peak.
To the unsuspecting, very disturbing. To the rest of us ....fantastic.
Genesis at their peak. Simply amazing.
They really stretched The Waiting Room out after Pete told them he was leaving. Listen to the Wembley, Groneigen, Dortmund versions. The USA versions are tame by comparison. Un-frigging-real.
The best version I have ever heard of one of my favorite Genesis songs. The original live version inspired me to use the pitch knob on my Mellotron while using the choir patch.
yes, i got inspired to use my tron in the same way!
Add free improvisation to their list of talents.
We're those voices coming from the mellotron? ,because if so that's genius and Tony should've done that on the albums or maybe it was Peter on the mic
Yeh best version I've heard. PG sounds demonic
Wow, Phil from 6:50 on... insane drumming!!!
La mejor versión de "The Waiting Room".
A Masterpiece.
Absolutely brutal.
6:25 how tf did they do that LIVE with Peter's vocals? the processing and panning?

This is a perfect stereo mix! What is the source of this ???
A quick thinking sound guy would be my guess.
What an incredible version of this! How was this recorded? It sounds almost soundboard!
It is an SBD
One of their best improvisations from "The Lamb Tour" and nice sounding too! What about the lyric opera voice at 3:43?
Phil is nuts
Best album and band ever
What a trip!

I was there :-) ... the gig that started me on this road!!
You lucky man. I was 7 years old and literally lived about 2 minutes from the Empire theatre. Wish I had a time machine.
OK , I'm gonna give this a shot : Phil Collins on Drums,percussion,allsorts,(vibes?)voices,(tape recorders?),Peter Gabriel on Tape recorders,Drums,percussion allsorts,synths(?),voices,vibes(?),Tony Banks on Keyboards, Organ,Synths,Bass pedals(?),effects,voices(?)percussion(?),Michael Rutherford on Bass guitar&pedals,electric 12-string(Combo?),voices,effects,(vibes?)percussion allsorts(?), Steve Hackett on Electric guitars,12-string,effects pedals,(vibes?),bass(?),voices(?),percussion(?)

Genesis go experimental, love it.
The BEST Waiting Room Of the whole tour, and i saw it twice in Chicago in Nov & Feb
Utter perfection.
WOW what they could have become. Free jazz. Check out Supersilents first record.
Unbelievable. I have no words. Pure Magic from Music Gods. A State of the Art Trip.
Very nice! What's the source of this? Is there the full Liverpool show with this exact quality, I mean the same mix perhaps where this came from?
Well, I guess it's from the same source as this: th-cam.com/video/wVwvmMRcBXw/w-d-xo.html - right?
They played 3 nights at this theatre. This is just stunning to hear.
Phil is proper stoned. His impulse stretches beyond his temporary self imposed limits but it's genius. He would never have gone there otherwise.
There is no God!
We need to see Phil playing his thing!
I bunked into this show and ended up in a vacant front-row seat….
is that peter at 5:34
how in the world did you get this. it sounds fantastic
Did you happen to have the link to the pic you use in the video,incredible version of the waiting room btw
Un pezzo sempre accattivante e tremendamente attuale....
I know why i love Genesis.
si! hi pensato la stessa cosa;-)cmq tutto il live in Liverpool e' fantastico
Cmon people this is where it all came from!

Can you imagine trying to do this track LIVE?!?
Ooooooooohh yeeeeahhhhh 😈
Would love to know who's playing the Giantesque vibes at 3 minutes in? Was there a 2nd drummer (other than Gabriel) on stage here? What was the first concert with a 2nd drummer? I'm assuming it was Bruford in '76?
There's this called Google
Yeah it was bruford in '76. He was the first 2nd drummer. It sounds like it is Phil actually. If you listen closely the tom tom rolls stop and the vibes start. Both don't play at the same time. He had the kit set to where it was all setup in a circle around him so he had his roto toms and timbales to the left of him and the vibes were to the left of those so he went in a circle.

It was Phil. I saw this in Edinburgh ,he was the only drummer on this tour.
