Genesis W/Bill Bruford Live At The Starlight Bowl, Burbank CA 1976-05-01 THE DEFINITIVE EDITION from great quality master reel-to-reel (first time in circulation) with patches from the Genesis fansite!

First of all, a very big thanks to Simon of the Genesis fansite Genesis Movement. Their great website can be found at www.genesis-movement.org. It has a comprehensive oversite of the band, including pics, discographies, bootlegs, and fan recordings. Without Simon, it would not have been possible to have finished this show.

The assemblage and editing of this recording has been going on for several weeks already. My original master is a Scotch 7" reel running at 7.5ips. The runtime of that reel was only about 96 minutes. An end reel is not accounted for, could not be located, and may not exist at all. What I did have was in two large, incomplete pieces: there was a cut of over two minutes between Firth of Fifth and Entangled, and the very end of Supper's Ready was cut off. There was no material following Supper's Ready.

After writing the Genesis fansite and sending samples, it was determined that this master was in fact different from the one in the archives. Through their kind generosity, I was able to patch in the remainder of the show. Now, we'll both have a more complete copy.

This performance differs in several ways from the archive tape. For one thing, there are some great taper's comments about the pre-concert music (which is running in the background as they speak) and what they are seeing on stage. I personally have no idea, but it *seems* as if there was some kind of reference to "White Mountain". Perhaps someone could comment on that?

Next, there is additional stage patter between tracks. The band were in an extremely good mood that night. Finally, although other tracks do run longer, "Entangled" has been extended by over a minute. This version is almost nine minutes longer than the one in the archive. As for the recording quality? I think it's better, but please listen to the show and let me know. It's from a whole lot closer to the stage.

Please note that although artwork exists on the fansite, it does not cover this version. New artwork is appreciated from any of you; it will be forwarded to the fansite as well and be part of their records.
