What I meant was that the selection of tracks reflected that transition period. I think the recordings were taken from three shows in June 77 and the Bruford track was taken from a 1976 show on the Trick Of The Tail tour. It's like listening to an almost complete Genesis show from 1977 which is cool. I was able to see them on the ATTW3 tour so this was pretty close.

Seconds Out is a wonderful album and the best LIVE ALBUM Genesis ever put out. Some of the versions like Cinema Show, Fifth off Firth, Carpet Crawlers, Afterglow & Supper's Ready are just so emotional that you cannot help but fall in love here. That said, it's not on par with their studio efforts of Foxtrot, SEBTP & The Lamb.

I have heard this only once, picture I got then was that it wasnīt anything special, they played songs quite as good as they played songs in "Three Sides Live", of course there are better songs in Seconds Out. I have liked much more first live, I just prefer Peter in vocals & also think their playing was then much more intensive. Anyway this is the only Genesis 1969-79 period album that I havenīt got, going to buy it someday, but because I havenīt find it their greatest anyway, I havenīt got hurry to buy it. Maybe I will listen it again someday.

I like the crowd response at the beginning of Squonk, a great way to start a live album.

Just listened this whole through and I got earlier right picture of this album. But anyway I enjoyed it a lot! Seems their tour then was "letīs play the hits to the fans", I donīt have anything against "I Know What I Like", but really would have like to hear "Dancing With the Moonlight Knight" instead of it. Of course funny to hear Collins banking the tambourine to his head, also there are little pieces from "Moonlight" & "Stagnation". Also like somebody already said, really would like to hear more songs from "Lamb", the title song with ending of "Musical Box" are the greatest moments together with "Cinema Show" (not at least because Bill in drums). I think they should have leave "Supperīs" out and put more songs those two great last Gabriel-albums. I think reason to take it with has been it wasnīt on the first live, anyway I think the earlier versions with Gabriel are lot better, although this is not also totally bad. Whatīs odd there are only "Afterglow" although that was "Wuthering"-tour. Well I quess they have played more from that album but for some reason not included those into this, maybe because it just came. Anyway decent album all the way!
