Genesis’ Seconds Out is my favorite live album of all time. For people only familiar with the Phil Collins era of the band, it’s a perfect gateway to their brilliant past. Phil treats the Gabriel vocals with love and affection and really brings his all. Steve Hackett gives possibly some of his strongest work with the band. And the drum interplay between Collins and Chester Thompson (and, on one track, Bill Bruford) is :chef’s kiss:
Zappa/Mothers Just Another Band from LA showcases one of my favorite eras of the band, cut tragically short. The best, most complete rendition of Billy the Mountain until the release of the Carnegie Hall show
Came here to recommend Seconds Out.
That user name couldn't really recommend anything else though 😉
Genesis Live was a bit clunky.
TBH I feel like they really hit their stride performing in 1975-76. The Trick/Wind tours had a loose, jammy feel to them that’s irresistible.
