Customer Reviews of Genesis - The Genesis Songbook
A GOOD OVERVIEW This is a nice Genesis overview. It doesn't have other languages subtitles as the European version but is still a must for Genesis fans. It has quotations from all members (Peter Gabriel, Anthony Phillips, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, Steve Hackett, John Silver, Daryl Stuermer, Bill Bruford and Chester Thompson). As a plus it contain acoustic versions (some complete some not) of known songs.
It was ok, the bonus material was more interesting.
The documentary itself I feel was a waste of time. I had heard all of this material before, and basically all of it you can find on the internet. The acoustic performances in the bonus material are the highlight for me, quite cool. It appeared to me that the editing for the documentary was quite sloppy, and there was even an audio click during the docu which quite frankly should have been caught. This audio click was present in both mixes so...........
perhaps misleadingly titled, and redundant with "A History", but any true fan should get a blast out of it anyway
Yes, if you have the earlier "A History" video (released in the early '90s), much of this "Songbook" is redundant, in terms of interview content as well as archive footage. But still, we get more up-to-date interviews, with Phil commenting on leaving the band, and Tony Banks' feelings on the band continuing after Phil's depature. I always take great pleasure in hearing commentary from the underrated genius Tony Banks, and his insights and keyboard demonstrations of how "Supper's Ready" and "Firth Of Fifth" evolved are intelligent and fascinating. Mike Rutherford, with acoustic guitar in hand, discusses the creation of "Turn It On Again", alternated with comments from Phil about it's 13/8 time signature--great stuff. It would have been nice to hear more from Steve Hackett; we do get to see him do a nylon-stringed guitar solo performance of "Horizons". This runs neck-and-neck with the "A History" video in terms of sheer entertainment value, and any true fan should get a blast out of it.
