I have, as a matter of fact, already voted Can Utility.., but after having couple of Foxtrot listening sessions over the past few days I now would vote Time Table and Get'em out by Friday Big smile

I can see where this is going: Can Utility' because of its great bridge and vocals. It was a fine wrap-up to Side One of the original album, and it flows easily towards Horizons on the CD. Perhaps my favorite Genesis song pre-Selling England'.

Can-Utility and the Coastliners, followed by Watcher of the Skies, but I'm not listening to side one and Horizon's as much as waiting for what comes next.

Get 'em out by Friday! You don't get paid till the last one's well on his way.
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

After much gnashing of teeth, I had to decide upon "Can Utility" over "Watcher!"  

Rutherford goes nuts on bass guitar on Can, love it!  

In a few weeks, I'll be seeing the Canadian Genesis band "Musical Box" perform their "Foxtrot" show, I'm really looking forward to that!  Their "Lamb" show was sublime! 

Or sub-lamb!  LOL

This is great!  I thought I was alone in loving 'Can Utility' - does anybody know if they ever performed it live?

I'm shocked, Mine was an easy vote for Can-Utility but I expected Watcher of the Skies to have run away with this.  I'm kind of happy at the results.

For the record, I love Get 'em out by Friday and would have voted that second.

Can-Utility even over Supper's Ready.

That organ and guitar bridge at 1:45 gives me goosebumps.

Of course Apocalypse in 9/8 is simply brilliant, but Supper's Ready has some weak parts

At least 2 times on 1972 in Genova and Dublin




There's a also a strange version on Pavia



Seems like a previous demo announced as "Bye Bye Johnny" and there's also another version in Verona announced as "Rock my Baby"...This may have been from the same period as The Jackson Tapes (1969) 


Which included previous versions of Musical Box, Fountain of Salmacis, Anyway, and Looking for Someone

I love Time Table, but Watcher and Get Them Out are better on Genesis Live.
I love Can-Utility too BTW, but my vote goes to Time Table

For me, what I love about Supper's Ready, is that it is all beautiful and great, and the song flows wonderfully from beginning to end... I wouldn't really say it's got any weak parts, as oposed to it's live versions which have some parts (specially the "comic" ones) that break the perfect flow of the song.
