Exhilaration

70s

Never heard Supper's Ready?

I'm sure one of the many prog rock fans that frequent these boards can help me with this one. There was a track by Genesis in which a young Peter Gabriel would take the stage wearing a floppy hat with a piece of straw hanging out of his mouth, thus looking like some kind of country bumpkin. Anyone know what this track was called? It was absolutely awesome but I can't for the life of me remember what it was called. Nor do I have the Googling skills to identify it either .

YES!!!

Thank you for that.

Absolute class. What a performer Mr Gabriel was!

Don't blame me, I didn't write it

The man who discovered Genesis:

What are you saying? That he was a dirty old paedo?

Well, he was. He discovered a lot of other acts of the 70s too...

Maybe he's talking about the long haired chap in the foreground.

PS Oh yeh, JK was done for that too. Forgot.

I did think it was unusually loquacious for a gentleman of few words such as yourself.

Oh, I see. You're being facetious...

Personally, I've been a huge fan ever since the Paperlate E.P. Not so familiar with the Gabriel era stuff though.

Phil Collins' solo efforts seem to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying in a narrower way

... taking the time to quote from the sections of a novel designed to flesh out the character of the protagonist who is actually insane....

whoo ... whole new levels of post-modernism going on here. This thread needs two alternate endings...

Not to mention the fact that I can't stand Phil Collins or Genesis

I did wonder.

IIRC one of his was the first song after our wedding (chosen by the DJ - not having been invited to (m)any weddings, I had no idea we were supposed to pick a 'first song'), but the whole day is a bit of a blur...
