Genesis Live At Knebworth June 29, 1978 2CDr Set

http://www.tommygunvideodvd.comGenesis Live At Knebworth 1978 2CD  SetIn 1978 Genesis headlined the annual Knebworth Festival, their sole UK date on the "Mirrors" tour. The BBC recorded the show on the Island Record mobile studio and a week later on 1.Jul.78 broadcast some of the show in quadraphonic on the fifth anniversary of Alan Freeman's "Saturday Afternoon Show" between 4:00pm and 5:30pm. The BBC master of this initial broadcast was a 90 minute edit of the show on quad reel-to-reel tape, though no subsequent broadcast has been in quadraphonic sound During quadraphonic sounds’ short “heyday” in the 1970’s, one issue (of many) that was never properly resolved was how best to deliver a four channel mix with a stereo source. The BBC spent a lot of time analyzing all the available options, ultimately offering their own system, which was called Matrix H.   It sought to improve on some of the weaknesses in the other quad formats, and while it worked well in controlled situations, as soon as broadcast trials started (1977), problems became apparent.  Encoded mixes sounded a bit bland and distant.  To make matters worse, a proper decoder was never perfected, so even under optimal conditions, a proper 4 channel decode was never possible.  Broadcast trials continued, with the BBC doing further experimentation with the encoding.    By Dec. ’77 the BBC had formally announced that it would be moving on to Matrix HJ, although a news article announcing this also mentions that Matrix H test broadcasts were continuing, which does sound a bit contradictory.. Also, announcements for both the Gentle Giant show in January of  ’78 and Genesis in June of ’78 supposedly only reference “Matrix H” (that needs a fact check).   Could be just an oversight, but who knows.   While it offered some improvements in performance, HJ was  “too little too late”,  with the BBC ultimately ditching it, and moving on to ambisonic surround sound, which they continue to utilize to this day Copy and paste this link to listen to a clip of Fountain Of Salmacis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ozo0FtJsx00   Date: June 29, 1978 Venue: Knebworth Park Festival, England Quality - A+  Soundboard recording     CD 1 1-Squonk 2-Burning Rope 3-Ripples 4-The Fountain of Salmacis 5-One For the Vine 6-Deep in the Motherlode 7-The Lady Lies 8-Afterglow 9-Follow You Follow Me CD2 10-Dance on a Volcano 11-Los Endos 12-I Know What I Like  www.tommygunvideodvd.com   POSTAGE RATES USA2.99 Flat Rate no matter how many you buy!7.99 for Priority Mail (USA only) International Econo-ShippingCanada/International postage2.99 for one item5.99 for 2 or more items DVD CASES WILL NO LONGER SHIP WITH INTERNATIONAL ORDERSBut we will still send you DVD case insert artwork To offset the increasingly higher cost of international postage rates and to offer our international customers the lowest shipping prices possible we will no longer be shipping dvd cases with International/Canadian orders.
