GENESIS
Live in Z�rich 1977 ("Z�rich Revisited" version 2)
Hallenstadion, Z�rich, Switzerland, 2 July 1977

This fantastic version of this show was released some years ago by Digital Brothers who made a great job merging two sources (soundboard and audience) to create an incredible sound matrix, restoring the live atmosphere that the raw soundboard was missing.

The "Z�rich Revisited" bootleg soon became noted as the best bootleg from the 1977 tour.
But one could have different opinion. One reviewer wrote "I have mixed feelings about this. This audience/soundboard matrix sounds indeed closer to Seconds out than the soundboard (that's a compliment), but new problems have been introduced. The audience over the beginning and in the middle of several tracks is quite annoying..."
Yes, audience noise had been added which in itself shouldn't be an issue if it were not too intrusive during Phil's introduction and during several songs. Because of this issue "Z�rich revisited" couldn't be compared to an official release ! Even if the sound quality of the music itself is astonishing.

The issue of audience noise is fixed in this new release (hence the version 2), making it much more enjoyable to listen to, and now really really close to an official release.

A new cover has also been designed(included)

As a bonus you'll find other tracks that Genesis played earlier in the 1977 tour but left off the set-list by the time of the Z�rich concert.

Some notes about the bonus tracks :
"All in a mouse's night" is from the Gaumont theatre in Southampton. This soundboard recording suffered from the lack of bass guitar, totally inaudible (unrecorded ?). This flaw has been repaired in the version presented here (but I won't tell you how it was made possible ah ah).
"The knife" from Earl's court had its intro slightly cut in the original recording; this has also been repaired
