Setlist
Looking For Someone (February 22, 1970)An early classic of the band, this song was never performed live after theTrespass tour. Taken from a BBC "live in the studio" recording, this is oneof the earliest live Genesis recordings in known existance. Recorded inLondon, UK.The Light (March 7, 1971)The only known recording of this song, "The Light" would eventually developinto "Lillywhite Lilith," as well as parts of "The Colony of Slippermen" from"The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway." This song was perhaps the first Genesissong to have lyrics written by Phil Collins. Recorded at the Woluve inLaFerme, Belgium.Twilight Alehouse (February 26, 1972)A early classic that was was written before Trespass (actually, a small bitcan be heard on "From Genesis To Revelation") this song was never officiallyreleased until the "Selling England By The Pound" period, despite being astaple of the early live set. Recorded at the Civic Hall in Dunstable, UK.Harlequin (March 4, 1972)Although not performed often, "Harlequin" was sometimes used to open NurseryCryme tour shows (when "Happy The Man" was not). Recorded at the TechnicalCollege in Watford, UK.Bye Bye Johnny (April 14, 1972)One of the rare examples of Genesis performing songs before released on analbum, "Bye Bye Johnny" is acutally an early version of the "Foxtrot" song"Can-Utility And The Coastliners." Recorded at the Palasport in Pavia, Italy.Happy The Man (April 18, 1972)"Happy The Man" was another often-performed song that was never released onan album. This recording is one of the better quality recordings of NurseryCryme tour shows. Recorded at the Piper Club in Rome, Italy.Going Out To Get You (April 18, 1972)Cut from "Trespass" to make room for "The Knife," "Going Out To Get You" isanother song written possibly as early as the "From Genesis To Revelation"period. However, unlike "Twilight Alehouse," "Going Out To Get You" was onlysparingly performed live by the band. Recorded at the Piper Club in Rome,Italy.One-Handed Drum Solo (June 28, 1972)Serving the same function as Peter's now-famous stories, the One-Handed DrumSolo was a time-filler when instruments required tuning or repair. "...PhilCollins went to Russia to study under a famous spastic..." Recorded at theTown Hall in Watford, UK.Can-Utility And The Coastliners (August 20, 1972)"Can-Utility" was originally in the standard Foxtrot tour setlist, but it wasdropped relatively early in the tour. Recorded at the Piper 2000 Club in ViaReggio, Italy.Seven Stones (August 22, 1972)During the band's early years, one of the only areas that actually likedGenesis was Italy. Because of their loyalty to the band, Genesis oftenrewarded the Italian fans with some rare songs this performance of "SevenStones" is an example of this. This recently-uncovered recording (thecomplete song) was recorded at the Teatro Alcione in Genova, Italy.
