Genesis - (1974-12-16) Toronto

Genesis - (1974-12-16) Toronto
At the Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. This recording is one

of numerous Farm-sourced recordings from this tour to surface

in 2007. Whereas most of the Lamb shows taped by the road

crew seem to have been made with a backstage microphone, this

is one of a few that is a real soundboard. The sound quality

is therefore quite nice, though I heard the occasional buzz

and perhaps a few pops, probably from the original tapes.

Unfortunately the show is chopped up. As usual the cuts begin

a little past halfway in the performance: we get only the

beginning minute of "Anyway" before it abruptly cuts off and

we jump to the ending verse of "Lamia." Though in Paul

Russell's book he notes a complete "Silent Sorrow," this

version (which matches the one listed by Simon on The

Movement) only has the first minute of the song before the

recording once again cuts off, ending the first disc.

The rest of the Lamb performance continues without a cut.

Peter omits a few lines from "In the Rapids," as he often did

on this tour, especially in the early days. Unfortunately we

are left with only the ending minute of "Box," but we do get

the complete second encore, "Watcher."
