Wow, it's nice to know that there are Folks out there that Love Genesis as much as I do. 

I accidentally ran across some of your Videos on YouTube with you showing how they reconstructed some of the Music on their Live Music.
Well, it's enough for you to know that my mind has been blown! 
Aside from their Music, I've always been most interested in the technical aspects of how Genesis put their Music together! 
Your Videos are awesome & Thank-You for sharing them!

Hi, dear Barney ~


I, for one, join you on the "mind-blowing" aspect of how intricate it has become (and been) for the gifted members of the original Genesis - to care for their incredible  musical compositions.
I am so grateful that you (and others) recognize this timeless gift..but, the work that has gone into to produce and preserve it for our continued enjoyment.
As an audio engineer (and long-time fan of the group, since 1975) - I know enough to be dangerous/enlightened as to how much devotion this has taken, over the years.
Since I have a 30-yr background in TV News, I also am dedicated to "setting and describing" the record STRAIGHT on all that is Genesis...preferably, straight from the horse's mouths, themselves.
There is a lot of misinformation and disinformation out there on the internet - about all sorts of Genesis-related topics.
I seek to visually present the TRUE facts, as they are related to me by those who were either in the band..or have worked with them through these past several decades.
I've been blessed with many new friendships - (Steve and Jo Hackett, the Lord-Alge Bros/Peter Gabriel, Nick Davis, Armando & Cheryl Gallo to name a few) ...and thanks to their kindness and support, strive to pass those insights on to you, my fellow early-Genesis lovers.


It's been (and continues to be) an amazing journey for me..a engineering/music-lover's dream come true) and I have all my YouTube & Vimeo subscribing-friends, like you,  to thank for this...
Sincerely:  Thank you from the bottom of my heart!


All my Lamb Love,


Lil

Ok, -before I say anythinh..may I suggest that this is kind of "your fault"?--I was watching Camel-(Sight and Sound BBC-1977) and saw that PeteBardens had 3 stacked keyboards for his left hand and a dual stack (if memory serves..) for his right that included a number of effects and delays--were those pre-recorded loops??-was that a mellotron??-or a arp soloist synth???-Much Love--JEFF

*FOR SERIOUS LAMB FANATICS ONLY !!!* 

A
n Analysis of the many allegorical layers, written by Peter Gabriel, within the pivotal song "The Chamber of 32 Doors" on the original Lamb Lies Down on Broadway album.

Jungian Archetype Theory, The Power of Myth's Hero's Journey and the Tibetan Book of the Dead provide the framework with which Gabriel wrote of his pending decision to leave Genesis.
Add onto that the visual work of "El Topo" director Alejandro Jodorowsky, as Peter's inspiration - and you have one, very serious surrealistic work of art.

WARNING/ADVISORY:   This trilogy of videos are DEEP (because these metaphysical/psychoanalytical works were what Peter Gabriel had been reading up until the uber-rushed writing of The Lamb)!
Although, he claims the lyrics are flawed - many still consider it a layered work of genius.
Part Surrealism, Part Metaphysical, Part Self Psychoanalytical. 

These videos are the result of 2 years of intense research and many contributions by many people (several, quite close to Peter Gabriel & Genesis).

As Tony Robinson wrote for the 1970-1975 Genesis Box Set: "It's a mistake to think of the narrative as only having one meaning because every listener must create their own personal story."
This trilogy's analysis is not set in concrete.  It is meant to elucidate upon the metaphysical texts by which Peter was reaching to obtain his own new pathway (out of the band and into his own solo career, away from "Genesis-the-Big")....as well as start new discussions as to what the album meant to YOU, the listener.
From all of us who collaborated on these videos....ENJOY!!
