I believe you have a mistaken album or a later edition Greenback, because Fonya isn't in "The River of Constant Change", souble checked the list (The one above is from Amazon) with my album and Hairless Heart is  perfrmed by Mysia.

Maybe on another tribute, there are lots of.

ivan, the los endos/hairless heart played by fonya (chris fournier) is on the in flux album, and it is effectively not on the river of constant change list; and it is very impressive, if you like new age keyboards obviously!

Has anybody here ever seen the Canadian Genesis tribute band The Musical Box in concert? I've downloaded a snippet of their version of Supper's Ready from their website and it seems they got it real damn close to right!  FYI, if you don't know about The Musical Box, their whole concept was to virtually recreate Genesis concerts from the early 70s, complete with costuming, backdrops, instrumentation, everything...  I want them to come to Atlanta, Georgia, because I missed them the last time.

4. The Carpet Crawlers - Notturno Concertante    
5. Living Forever - Moongarden    
6. Time Table - Lincoln Veronese    
7. Blood On The Rooftops - Queen Of Maybe    
8. Lilywhite Lilith - Art And Illusion    
9. Harlequin - Finisterre    
10. Ravine - T.M.A.    
11. The Day The Light Went Out - Legend    
12. Am I Very Wrong? A Place To Call My Own - Nostalgia    
13. Twilight Alehouse - Men Of Lake    
14. The Knife - Germinale    
15. The Lamia - The Ancient Veil    
16. CD 2    
17. Horizons - Max Michieletto

29. The Chamber Of 32 Doors - Galahad

The bands are from Spain, England, Sweden but specially from Italy and mostly unknown except Galahad, Finisterre, Notturno Concertante and Moongarden.

Even Living Forever by Moongarden sounds great and progressive despite being a We Can't Dance track.

I sincerely reccomend it.

Iván

the cinema show version is interesting, although not as quintessential and complex as the original one

"Straightforward"  is an euphemism...

...i wonder why they did such a cover, it doesn't add anything to the original version.

They didn't revisit it or re-interpretate it or desacrate it or anything else, they play it as it is in the original version, just like a group of Genesis fans would do in a garage sunday afternoon !

Anyway, thank you Man Overboard i had no idea there's people doing things like that... in a way you expanded my horizon

I think it's just fine. Of course it's not going to match how well Genesis did it, but I like how it just sounds a little different. If it didn't, why waste time and listen to it if you could just listen to the real thing?

I'm with Peter on this. I find it easier just to enjoy it rather than critisize it!

Cool, but I meant do a studio version of TMB or SR. Yeah, that tribute is a little expensive, but is it worth it? (meaning, is it good or not?)

Anglagard did an outstanding cover of The Musical Box in Progfest 94 and a band from Israel called Eggroll did a good version of Supper's Ready (Starting in Willow's Farm), the music is outstanding but the vocals are not the best even when the vocalist is good, but not for this song in particular.

Had the luck to see a video from Anglagard and a friend from Israel sent me the Eggroll DVD with excellent cover bersions of Thick as a Brick and Starless.

About the Genesis Tribute, I bought it on www.Amazon.com but you better find a cheaper place.

Listening to it at this moment... Now this is coming from the biggest Genesis fan, and I can be very picky at times! That having been said,  I would place TFK version of the song in the category of "Nice Try"... They seem to have the desire to produce an atmosphere somewhat like the original, but tweaked and expanded on.  Kinda reminds me of the Mastermind version of "The Endless Enigma"...

Didn't like it. There were some alright bits but I guess this is yet another example of how modern prog can't compete with '70s prog

Totally agree, very BAD cover !
For Genesis covers, it's better buy Steve Hackett "Genesis revisited"  !

I believe that's just the edited version of the song. The full song is available on a Flowerkings fan club CD I own. I don't know what you guys look for in tribute songs, but for me a bad tribute song is when it's done as a carbon copy of the original.

It's obvious this was only done as a bit of fun & shouldn't be taken seriously!

But, overall... I liked this song. And I have "The Fox Lies Down", and I agree with others guys, this tribute is very weak. But I like John Wetton's version of "Your Own Special Way".
