i had everything.....family, job, my woman.......i lost everything..... Steve, you are the only one who helps me in this fucking world........for me , now, it remains only the immortal music you created....thanks .....from the deepest of my heart.
Walter Poluzzi Hang in there Walter , We are all fans of Steve Hackett and support you if needed.Be inspired by this great music and take one step at a time.Good Luck to You :)
I've watched several Steve Hackett concerts, from his early gigs to the recent Royal Albert Hall. They are superb, all of them. However, this Tokyo concert is the most fantastic show I've seen so far. If you had to choose an anthological prog concert, I'm afraid this is the one. What a coolness in all these performances, such calm and tranquility, what a a bunch of exceptional musicians! Outstanding, really!
"Court of the Crimson King" here at about thirty eight min. America, about 1970, at the girl's house, heard this. She was hot but this was better. And now I am 60 years old, never been South of New Jersey, and this speaks to the glory of Great Britain, the timeless and madrigal nature. We were poor, we had no access, we caught glimpses. I caught this then and it lasted. Beautiful.
At 34:00 I had no idea Hackett was such a harmonica meister. I saw Hackett on his Spectral Mornings tour, with his brother John and the drummer from Spirit. Was excellent!
Normally I'm not a huge fan of super groups doing renditions of everyone else's classics, but damn if these guys didn't bring the magic. Awesome awesome concert!
Kwinquark1 I know, but often musicians that team up don't do the original songs justice. You kinda missed my point. These guys meshed well together though.
Steve Hackett was the beating heart of Genesis. I hear everything I loved the most about Genesis in his solo material and like a lot of his solo stuff as much or more than the Genesis stuff. It's amazing that he's still going strong
Regardless of Ensemble, Time and Technology...this is the best rendition of Watcher I've Ever Heard. Glad Hadkett is indeed "carrying the torch". RIP John Wetton. It's been a rough couple of years in terms of losing the stalwarts of music.
Un gran maestro de la Guitarra , Fantástico Chester Thompson en la batería , otro grande , desconocido para muchos , pero su legado siempre estará vigente.
Always a pleasure to listen and watch this again and again, a highly skilled group of musicians playing some of progressive rocks best music ever written, there's some top names on this stage like Chester Thompson, John Wetton etc. but also on keyboards is Julian Colbeck who after playing here decided this lot were a "bunch of old men" and henceforth quit being a professional keyboardist and went on to become a CEO of software company.
The Tokyo Tapes are just the greatest tapes of a Steve Hackett concert my dad and I wish we could’ve seen. Somewhere my dad has the CD, but I wish this could happen again! Unfortunately it probably won’t, but it’s good to see this!
Steve Hackett es un genio y excelente músico, sus obras musicales son para toda la vida. Acompañado de otro grande en la voz como es John Wetton junto a otros músicos de mucha jerarquía.
Steve puts together a great troupe to recreate this- it's so sad to me that Peter, Tony, Phil, and Michael will not join in this. But the talent here makes them not needed.
WOW, what a stunning performance from one of the greatest guitar players in the world. Fantastic line of very talented musicians. I wish I was there. Thank you to James for posting this. I will tresure this for a lifetime. Gio.
SUPERGROUP!! Thank the gods for Steve Hackett for keeping Genesis alive. After the release of "Trick of the Tail" with the exception of "Seconds Out", Phil turned the band from prog rock to pop rock. It's nice to see John, Ian and Chester. However, Steve always enlists the best. Great upload. Thank you.
Im glad you l8ke Genesis, but get tired of hearing people put down the band under super singwr and drumner Phil Collins. And like Shakespeare, he is responsible for msny fine love songs, Give me all of Genesis, circa 1970 to 2022 including Hacketts brilliant contributions.
What a c typically misguided pronouncement! Phil Colllins, a brilliant singer, drummer, and composer, with Tony and the others, changed the bands direction somewhar, yet not entirely. One of progressive rocks foremost acts, why not enjoy every manifestation of Genesis? I do.
Not Phil, really. The other guys tailgated Phil's solo career to an extent after 1981 but much of the progressive rock feel left the room after Steve left in early 1978 - but then of course, there's Duke's Travels. So I guess the remaining three just decided to make some money in the 80s because prog was dead then in terms of commercial sales. Though thecprog stuff wins in the end and will outlive all the rest. Oops, it has. Steve's band is in tour again in 2024.
Wetton is fantastic, singing the Genesis tracks. Also, I love Chester playing a straight groove through "Watcher...". I know it may seem blasphemous, but I think it's a great choice. What a great gig to have experienced. Thank you for posting this!
King Crimson and Genesis are among my very favorite bands so - even before listening to this - I knew I was going to like it. I was not disappointed. Everyone sounds great. I must confess, however, that there were a few times I looked at a close-up of Steve and thought of Nigel Tufnel.
They really did imagine those songs before the technology existed or they had the skill to play them... Genesis I mean. As soon as Genesis were doing big, tight, professional stage productions like this, they weren't playing them anymore... And Steve Hackett carried the torch and played them how they should always have sounded :)
Thinking about what you've said..and hey, we're Genesis - Hackett fans..I think a lotof credit for this production..the Hackett video..has to do with this Sony video, the Hall. I just recently saw a Vid of UK recorded in 2012. Them doing One More Red Nightmare..and the sound quality is distinct. Most likely using a 128 Channel mixing board. Really 'really' dedicated full digital channels to soloing instruments. Lots of spacial reverb, subtle and otherwise. On this Watchers version, Julian's Synth I think is directly sampled from Tony Banks Watcher ..from Genesis live. Then processed somewhat, sharpened. They were going for the way a Melotron should sound in the year 1973. Aside from a very slight chord variation or two it's exact. It's gorgeous, and sounds as if it was the first or 2nd piece that was ever played on a new Mellotron.
One time in Rock n Roll, in music..you used to hear this reference to musicians as perfectionist. Well, whatever as is..with those early Genesis they created these tight, compact little audio stories. I guess really starting with White Mountains, but anything of course from Nursery Crime & Fox. I think the beauty with those songs is, not so much how they started them but where, and how to end them. Such a sense of music with the lyrics -- Fountain of Salmacis, Giant Hogweed, Get em Out by Friday..the band had a good/excellent sense of music progression. The 12 string guitar cadence, with a finger cymbal..and that, I don't know what to call it..the decending-trickle-percussion noise. But..any 70's Genesis fan knows this
Prob. the oddest song from the pre-Selling Genesis time period is Harold The Barrell. And just the hurried tempo with it. _ anyway tho, as far as skill..you mentioned Genesis, they all were talented by Nursery Crime. Rutherford on Rickenbacker influenced a lot of bass players.
Date_2_11_23__Alfonso, sorry for the late reply. Thanks for your interest in these 2 vids. And yes, I agree__John Wetton__R.I.P And the other Crim alumni too.
Wonderful set with some of the greatest musicians of all time. By the way, John Wetton sings "And now you find yourself in '96" in Heat Of The Moment, so it was recorded in '96... Off to part 2...
that's the instrumental interlude (with the poignant guitar solo by Steve Hackett) of "Firth of Fifth" by Genesis [from the album "Selling England by the Pound" (1973)] [note: the original version and (generally) the versions (also live) with Mike Rutherford playing the "Taurus bass pedal" are much better (listen if you want), in my opinion, the taurus and mellotron are fundamental in genesis music] ciao, from Rome ..and good listening!
John Wetton of course being one of the pioneers of Prog fits in here perfectly. If Greg Lake can play with Asia it's perfectly acceptable for John to do a little Genesis. All they need is Bill Bruford on drums who has played with King Crimson, Yes AND Genesis....
Hi one last reply. I've just linked over from the Hackettsongs website, complete with tour pics. It seems it was'nt long ago since I'd last looked at it, but really took a min or 2 to see the most recent pics. LarksTounge I hope your able to get there_NYC. I like Steves' most recent band, Gary O'Toole etc. And the UK show pics__right out of the pages of Armando Gallo. State of the Art Venues, Tasteful thematic stage layout. Budget busters eek. Genesis revisited, soundwise & otherwise.
Gracias. I agree; again excellent mixing of the 3 guitars. Not radically different but different. Pro vocal harmonies. _ _ in the next couple of days; I'm finally getting around to it; I'm going to u/l the Qango album. Your a fan of John? I think this you will dig. I've cheked TH-cam and no Qango anywhere. Myself I'm fond of this & prob. more than anything made me a fan of Wetton again. Wikipedia has a page on Qango so....maybe give it a peruse?
RIP Mr Wetton and Mr McDonald 2 immensely talented players and writers. Battlelines and Talk to the Wind are masterpieces , would have love to seen this combi given Blood om The Rooftops a go, and Spectral Mornings, instead of IKWIL
It's a shame that this video omits Steve's comment on the audio CD, "Here's one of John's", at 51m 55 before "Heat of the Moment" begins. It's just a simple acknowledgement of the origin, and belongs with the track.
Ian MacDonald is most humble by playing the parts that Peter Gabriel came up with (on the flute). And John Wetton playing (harmonic) bass while singing (melodic) verse - that separates him even from most rock bass players, let alone those playing prog! Wetton is so under-rated!
Only musos seem to know that, whilw Gabriel is a considerable singer, he wasnt much of a flautist. Contrast Ian Anderson. Hackett rocks as ever, as does Thompson!
Reasons to get EXITED ?? What , to be thrown out ??.... And what's a FIRTH book ?? A novel you find in a Scottish bay !!!??... You Breezeblock - Spelling's fucking atrocious old son.. I just can't HACK IT !!!.. ha ha
Amazing.. Incredibly progressive rock. For who news what are listening; The very best era of Genesis.. Forever.. Best magic music for albuns Foxtrot, Selling England.. But others magics albuns for listening.. Nursery Crime, The Lamb Lies Down, Trick of Tail,Wind and Wuthering, Trespass, Then there Three and finish whith Duke.. The rest are Crapp.. Thank You mr. Steve Hackett for the Best Music of Genesis. Genesis without Hackett and Peter Gabriel is not Genesis.
Você não pode subestimar o Phil Collins... Mesmo na fase progressiva, ele tomou as baquetas e ainda fazia várias partes de apoio vocal enquanto Gabriel teatralizava...
Chester may be a better drummer than Phil. John is without doubt better than Michael. Ian and Julian together easily equal Tony. No one is better than Steve. Maybe the best Genesis line-up of all time. If only Peter was here to do the vocals. But I always loved John's voice. John is the voice of King Crimson's Red. How iconic is that? Beautiful.

Wetton singing Peter Gabriel lines actually sounds really, really good!
And no less would be expected from one so multi- gifted as John Wetton. If you can please Fripp you can please anyone.
So great to see Steve and Chester on stage together playing Firth of Fifth like in 1977.
"Court of the Crimson King" here at about thirty eight min. America, about 1970, at the girl's house, heard this. She was hot but this was better. And now I am 60 years old, never been South of New Jersey, and this speaks to the glory of Great Britain, the timeless and madrigal nature. We were poor, we had no access, we caught glimpses. I caught this then and it lasted. Beautiful.
"We were poor, we had no access, we caught glimpses". That's a beautiful line! :-)
Ray Stroud Thanks Ray. Beatles the same way, could only see what they showed us and savor it.
At 34:00 I had no idea Hackett was such a harmonica meister. I saw Hackett on his Spectral Mornings tour, with his brother John and the drummer from Spirit. Was excellent!
Normally I'm not a huge fan of super groups doing renditions of everyone else's classics, but damn if these guys didn't bring the magic. Awesome awesome concert!
+funkster007 They're not somebody else's classics - several of these guys performed on the originals and had input on the writing side

Steve Hackett was the beating heart of Genesis. I hear everything I loved the most about Genesis in his solo material and like a lot of his solo stuff as much or more than the Genesis stuff. It's amazing that he's still going strong
This is the best band solo ever to support Steve Hackett! What a great sound!!! The instrumental stuff on the Camino Royale song is incredible!!!
This
Regardless of Ensemble, Time and Technology...this is the best rendition of Watcher I've Ever Heard. Glad Hadkett is indeed "carrying the torch".
RIP John Wetton. It's been a rough couple of years in terms of losing the stalwarts of music.
Damn...FoF...I never heard bass like that in the original. Smashing!
Steve has always been my fav, but also seeing Wettons playing and his vocals...Wow. Incredible.
I love how John Wetton sings the Peter Gabriel songs of Genesis. But I wonder why he does not play the bass guitar on this song.
@@psychodelicrock12 He makes up for it in Firth of Fifth!👍👍👍 18:04
Don’t leave out Ian!
Hey! At 32:01 and 34:40 Who was playing tine piano and clav?
@@audiomezKeyboards were played by Julian Colbeck, I think. See what you mean. He's soloing but 35:45 it's Ian Mcdonald playing the clav sound.
great song, and very nice musicians , ...R.I. P. Dear John
Firth of fifth.Masterpiece.John Wettons,bass playing is amazing,as well as his vocal...the entire band..perfect!!
Un gran maestro de la Guitarra , Fantástico Chester Thompson en la batería , otro grande , desconocido para muchos , pero su legado siempre estará vigente.

Hackett, Wetton, MacDonald, Thompson ...... Awesome Genesis/ King Crimson !!!
and Hackett Wrote Melotron and his Watcher of THE Skies
The Tokyo Tapes are just the greatest tapes of a Steve Hackett concert my dad and I wish we could’ve seen. Somewhere my dad has the CD, but I wish this could happen again! Unfortunately it probably won’t, but it’s good to see this!
I most love that Steve is playing songs here that precede his time with Genesis. Awesome.
Which songs would that be? He is co-writer (or in case of "Horizons", sole writer) of each and every Genesis track played!
RIP, John Wetton and Ian McDonald 😢Acoustic version of Heat of the Moment is so nice 😊 Horizons is so beautiful 😍
Steve Hackett es un genio y excelente músico, sus obras musicales son para toda la vida. Acompañado de otro grande en la voz como es John Wetton junto a otros músicos de mucha jerarquía.
Came straight here from the 2001 symphonic Yes And You and I. What a pairing.
Love this album and this lineup. The best part is seeing Chester onstage with Steve again like back in 1977.
Yes indeed!
I wrote just the same thing 8 years after you, then read your comment!😂👍👍
Killer Firth of Fifth solo. Wow.
Classic lineup of briliant musicans
Steve puts together a great troupe to recreate this- it's so sad to me that Peter, Tony, Phil, and Michael will not join in this. But the talent here makes them not needed.
this was fantastic to get this lineup.perfect!!.I can't believe I just found out about this,a few months ago!!.What a treasure!
That was the best rendition of Heat of the Moment I've ever heard, amazing!
What a line up; Steve had cool friends!
WOW, what a stunning performance from one of the greatest guitar players in the world. Fantastic line of very talented musicians. I wish I was there. Thank you to James for posting this. I will tresure this for a lifetime. Gio.
Steve Hackett. The king of sustain.

Wetton bass playing is fantastic
20:43 Probably the best ever exit from that solo!❤❤❤
20:18 I collect all videos with this original ❤❤ pass. I hate the other cheap 5 note pass played often
18:00 Probably the best entry to it, too!😂👍👍👍
grande John Wetton, la voz del progresivo ... que la tierra te sea liviana amigo mio ...
this man gives me a lot of joy.

Such a creative original? interlude. Love it when the unexpected is given a chance.
The best live version of "In The Court Of Crimson King" EVER!

The Firth still. That is, after that detour. About the detour, I like. It's creative, you don't see it coming. They all put their signatures on it.
Had brilliance written all over it until "Firth of Fifth." Aaaarrrgh - how can you take out the best part??
You mean the piano?
Rich Rolwing This arrangement leaves out my favorite part of the song.
What's the song at 46:20?????? Please answer me!
xparx1 The song at 46:20 is "Horizons". It's originally from the 1972 album "Foxtrot" by Genesis.
It's a shame that this video omits Steve's comment on the audio CD, "Here's one of John's", at 51m 55 before "Heat of the Moment" begins. It's just a simple acknowledgement of the origin, and belongs with the track.
