Hi, Lileigh, 
An old friend of mine sent a youtube link about your analysis of the Mellotron. 
Thanks a ton, as i don't think I will get any sleep. 
I will watch ALL of your videos. 

Saturday, I saw the Musical Box in Toronto at our historic Massey Hall. 
It was almost 40 years ago exactly, that Genesis did SEBTP on the same stage. 
Thank you for your enthusiasm for the band I cherish more than any other! 
( well, Maybe ELP is close)

All the best, Tom

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hellay, Tom !

So sorry for the excuse to lose even more sleep (than you are likely getting, already, like all of us ;-) - but, so very pleased you enjoyed my very heartfelt feature on the mighty Mellotron!
Have you, by chance, found my Analysis: BankSynths Vintage Instrument Tour video - with Sound of Contact's keyboardist Dave Kerzner and my collaborator Tom Lord-Alge discussing The Lamb's use of the early BankSynths stuff?



It was such a GREAT time filming them, as they talked (like little kids in a candy shop, I swear!  LOL), surrounded by all of the vintage keyboards that Tony Banks used during the Lamb era.  It was a GAS!    *hearty chuckle, recalling the memory*


As for The Musical Box 's SEBTP Tour - please look above to see the picture that TLA snapped, the other night, in NYC - at the end of Supper's Ready: New Jerusalem.  LOVE THAT BLACKLIGHT MAKE-UP, Denis Gagne !!!!!!  8-D


I have no doubt from your enthusiastic e-comment, you had just as good a time seeing the show as Tom and his brother Jeff did!
(I get to see TMB, in Los Angeles, after the New Year - when CalProg brings them out west - to spread their early-Genesis, black-lit magic.  Yippeeeee!!!)


Thank you again, for matching our passion...it's great to have your esteemed company (and support).


Love,  Lil

*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!!
