These are two old acoustic Genesis songs. The first is from Selling England by the Pound, 1973. Wonderful album, still with Peter Gabriel as lead vocalist, except for this song, “More Fool Me”, which was Phil Collins’ first lead vocal. I can remember this so well from being in high school, it was so poignant. These two kill it. What a voice, and wonderful guitar.
This was from the first album after Gabriel left, A Trick of the Tail. It was not done entirely acoustic, but this is. It’s a gorgeous song, the chords are wonderful, and again, her voice.

Nice. But there's 1:30 goofy cozy chatter before the music starts. In this pandemic realm I get a little tired of cutsie blabber that everyone feels they have to do at the beginning of every song. (Sorry. That's just me.) Second song is better. Only 50 sec of useless blabber.  Nicely done. Very good sound and lighting in their garage. |

Everybody and their cousin who plays a musical instrument is doing on-line videos. Usually Live Feeds. On a given night I have 6, 7, or 8 different Live Feed options pop up on my facebook feed. And when someone starts out with goofy chatter and tuning their instrument and looking at their screen to see who is watching, I click off to the next option.
If the person is a good friend, I'll click a "like" and move on.

As a major fan of early and mid-period Genseis who is VERY hard to please, I have to say they nailed both songs. Really nice tone on that OM, too. Good job.
And yep - the chat is annoying.
I do like Steve Hackett a lot. He's been doing some great little lockdown videos if you care to check them out.
My go-to tune Gensis tune to play is this one:

btw, who knew Rene Zellweger could sing like that? Renee as Judy. As is the theme for this thread, the music starts at 1:00 or so. Also see Renee in Chicago. Apparently she was also in the running for a long time to play Janis Joplin in a biopic, doing her own singing there as well. |

In the 2nd video, Tom Bucovac is wearing a 30th Street Guitars t-shirt. That's the shop where I bring my electric guitars for setups and repairs. Its owner, Matt Brewster, is the Professor Dumbledore of electric guitar wizardry.
