Notes from the Re-Master
There are many versions of this concert available among Genesis Fans. The BBC recorded
the show and those tapes were used to produce limited versions of this concert. This recording
as based on an audience tape which is essentially complete. Only a couple of sentences during
the Story of Rael part 2 are missing. This was likely when the original tape was turned during
the show.

The quality of this stereo recording is quite good. For some reason, the right channel
volume was consistently 25-30% lower than the left. This was corrected. The recorder was probably
near the front of the stage at the time of the concert. This allows us to appreciate the ambience
of the concert hall acoustics without suffering from the "airplane hanger" effect of recordings
made from the back row of an auditorium. This close proximity may also explain why treble was
overemphasised in this recording and needed to be reduced. The last two songs also seem to be
different in their tonality with even less bass and more treble. They may have been recorded
onto a different tape, hence different characteristics. All of this was fixed. Further, the last
two songs suffered from constant crackle, the source of which is unknown. Fortunately, it was
easily removed. Hiss was quite prominent throughout the recording but was removed without too
much trouble. Because it was an audience recording, removing the hiss made audience talking more
obvious, and at some point distracting. Nothing could be done about this. Again, because of the
audience placement of the recording device, applause was quite overpowering at some points and
needed to be reduced. Pops and clicks were also quite frequent. 53 were manually removed and others
were corrected using algorithms.

Peter was quite dynamic with the vocals during this performance. At some points the vocals are
quite soft and needed enhancement. At other times they were overwhelming and distorted at their
peaks. This was corrected as best as possible. The letter 'S' when sung loudly produced a hiss
that needed to be reduces on many occasions. For some reason, during the last song Watcher of
the Skies, for about 50 seconds the volume of the Left channel drops to about one third of the
original volume. The cause for this is unknown but this was also fixed.

The Tracking of the concert was quite curious. Disc one track placements did not correspond well
at all to the known tracking of the Lamb Lies Down On Broadway studio version. So most of the
first disc tracking was reworked. On the second disc the 'Lamb' tracking was correct. The only
change that was made was to separate the 'Story of Henry' from 'The Musical Box' within the
"Musical Box" track, thereby adding an additional track.
