Steve Hackett ACCADEMIA MUSICALE NAPOLETANA founded by Alfredo Casella in 1933 Celebrating 25 years of the magazine Massimo Fargnoli presents “25 anni insieme ai Genesis” with founder Mario Giammetti and the extraordinary participation of the historical Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett Monday 12th September – 7,30 PM Napoli, Cortile del Maschio Angioino (free entry) Dusk (www.dusk.it) In March 1991, with a photocopied issue #0, a simple fanzine was founded in Benevento, as in other countries also was happening. One quarter of a century later, Dusk has turned into a real lavish magazine, published 83 times (so far!), while all the other countries fanzines, one by time, stopped the publication. So, since nearly 15 years Dusk is the one and only Genesis printed magazine worldwide. With the constant collaboration of all eras Genesis members (Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Steve Hackett, Anthony Phillips and Ray Wilson), each four months a new 68 pages (both colour and b/w) mag reaches the fans scattered in the whole country and even abroad. The founder and director of Dusk, journalist Mario Giammetti who also wrote 14 Genesis and related books, will talk of this enterprise in Naples. The event, also featuring books presentations and a Mad Men Moon (one of the best Italian Genesis tribute bands) concert, will have an exceptional testimonial: Steve Hackett, legendary Genesis early era guitarist, who still brings on a very prolific solo career. During the event, Steve Hackett will also receive a commemorative plaque from the Assessor Nino Daniele. Program 19,30 Giovanni De Liso and Donato Zoppo present their respective books: Behind The Lines – Testi commentati 1969/1998 (Arcana) La filosofia dei Genesis – Voci e maschere del teatro rock (Mimesis) with an acoustic performance from Notturno Concertante 20,00 Dusk - 25 anni insieme ai Genesis Director Mario Giammetti talks about the venture that brought him to lead for a quarter of a century the only printed Genesis magazine in the world. 20,45 Massimo Fargnoli meets Steve Hackett, the legendary former Genesis guitarist. 21,30 Mad Men Moon in concert, celebrating the wonderful Genesis music. .

  • June 2021 Music Supplement
    Brixworth and District Newsletter Learn, laugh, live Registered Charity No 1178196 Issue 74 June 2021 PROGRESSIVE ROCK MUSIC SUPPLEMENT Helpful hint: Once the ‘YouTube’ video appears, once you have clicked on the links below, and after skipping the adverts, you may or may not know, that you can click on the 4-cornered square icon (usually bottom right of the screen on the tool bar, along with the /volume/stop/start/pause/ icons) which will fill the whole screen. You can then use the ‘esc’ button on your keypad to come back out. PROG ROCK (PR) started in the mid-1960s, and followed the anti-war flower-power era of free love. Probably the best- known track from that time, and most likely will be for years to come, is ‘21st Century Schizoid Man’ by KING CRIMSON. However, prior to that brilliant piece of work, the movement started with the likes of THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN and his ‘Fire’, and the 3-piece band THE NICE, fronted by keyboard player extraordinaire Keith Emerson, who later formed EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER. Greg Lake was originally with King Crimson and Carl Palmer played the drums with The Crazy World of Arthur Brown. Emerson, Lake & Palmer was the first of the super groups, preceded by British prog rock maestros YES and GENSIS, and later, many others. As a new genre, it was never really accepted in the USA, and I wonder if that had anything to with Keith Emerson who, with The Nice, produced the electrifying track ‘America’, during the playing of which, he stabbed knives into the Hammond Organ, and set fire to the Stars & Stripes flag, a regular event at his concerts, one of which I was present at in Bath in 1968.

  • Ray Wilson Ua Zu „
    Ray Wilson u.a. zu „Time And Distance“ “20 Jahre nach Calling All Stations“ oder „Re-Boot nach dem Genesis-Ende“ Der ehemalige Genesis-Sänger Ray Wilson ist aktuell wieder auf Tour, mit einem neuen Live-Doppelalbum im Gepäck, aus dem Ausschnitte auch beim diesjährigen Night Of The Prog Festival auf der Loreley vorgestellt wurden. Es gilt, das 20jährige Jubiläum des letzten Genesis-Studioalbums „Calling All Stations“ zu feiern, auf dem Wilson bekanntlich als Nachfolger von Phil Collins agierte. Genug Gesprächsstoff also, und Ray Wilson stellte sich bereitwillig den Fragen und erwies sich als ausgesprochen angenehmer Gesprächspartner. Zunächst die unausweichlichen Fragen zu Genesis, beginnend damit, wie es eigentlich dazu kam. Als Phil Collins Genesis verließ, war ich mit meiner Band Stiltskin bei der gleichen Plattenfirma unter Vertrag. Genesis hatten damals bei Virgin nachgefragt, ob man dort Ideen für die Nachfolge hätte. Virgin hatte dann Genesis die Stiltskin- Musik geschickt. Die Band hörte sich das an und fand, dass die Stimme etwas hat und zu ihrer Neuausrichtung passen könnte. Ich wurde eingeladen und sang acht Songs ausCollins und Gabriels Phase vor. Dann haben wir uns zusammengesetzt und ein paar neue Songs ausprobiert. Ich brachte selbst dann ein paar Ideen ein, sowohl Musik als auch Texte betreffend. Und das war es auch schon – es waren gerade mal zwei Treffen mit einem Monat Abstand, und dann war es entschieden, ich hatte den Job. Wenn eine Band, die sehr stark auch mit dem Frontmann assoziiert wird, einen Nachfolger suchen muss – ist es besser einen Klon zu suchen oder neue Wege zu gehen? Wie lief das bei dir? Es mag natürlich sein, dass es für jemanden mit einer sehr Collins-ähnlichen Stimme einfacher gewesen wäre, aber es war wohl auch von Mike und Tony beabsichtigt, wieder etwas mehr in Richtung der früheren Gabriel-Zeiten zu klingen, deswegen habe ich wohl auch den Job bekommen.

The band I’d been with for the last 5 years since leaving home and going on the road had finally returned from Germany broke after having our equipment stolen. I reluctantly got a job cleaning cars at Henley’s Cars for the princely sum of 42 pence an hour. When the initial novelty of doing ‘real work’ with overalls and everything, wore off (after about a week) I was thoroughly miserable, apart from the fact that Kathy and I were madly in love. At some point I got a call from Tex Comer, the bass player in the aforementioned band.

  • Get 'Em out by Friday the Official Release Dates 1968-78 Introduction
    Genesis: Get ‘Em Out By Friday The Official Release Dates 1968-78 Introduction Depending on where one looks for the information, the original release dates of Genesis singles and albums are often misreported. This article uses several sources, including music paper cuttings, websites and books, to try and determine the most likely release date in the UK for their officially released product issued between 1968 and 1978. For a detailed analysis to be completed beyond 1978 will require the input of others that know that era far better than I with the resources to examine it in appropriate levels of detail. My own collection of source material essentially runs dry after 1978. As most people searching for release dates are likely to go to Wikipedia that is where this search for the truth behind Genesis’ back catalogie. The dates claimed on Wikipedia would themselves have come from a number of sources referenced by contributors over the years but what these references lack is the evidence to back up their claims. This article aims to either confirm or disprove these dates with the added bonus of citing where this information stems from. It’s not without a fair share of assumptions and educated deductions but it offers more on this subject than any previously published piece. The main sources consulted in the writing of this article are as follows: 1. The Genesis File Melody Maker 16 December 1972 2. Genesis Information Newsletter Issue No. 1 October 1976 3. Wax Fax by Barry Lazzell - a series of articles on Genesis releases published in Sounds over several weeks in 1977 4.

  • Ray Wilson, 14.10.17, Dortmund, Pauluskirche
    Ray Wilson, 14.10.17, Dortmund, Pauluskirche In The Air Tonight! Niemand tourt so regelmäßig und ausgiebig in deutschen Landen wie Ray Wilson. Der schottische Sänger, der mit Stiltskin und Genesis weltbekannt wurde, ist regelmäßig im Land. So war es nur eine Frage der Zeit, bis er auch live betreut wird. Noch letzten Monat wurde Ray Wilsons neues Live-Doppelalbum „Time & Distance“ ausgesprochen positiv bewertet. Zudem stand er den Betreuern für ein Interview zur Verfügung. Es lag auf der Hand, dass der Konzertabend in der Pauluskirche in der Dortmunder Nordstadt ganz im Zeichen des Live Outputs stehen würde. Stichwort Pausluskirche: Ray Wilson trat in der Vergangenheit bereits viermal in dieser Kirche auf, kennt die Kirche womöglich besser als manches Gemeindemitglied. Der Pfarrer der Gemeinde, ein musikbegeisteter Fan des britischen Sängers, organisiert in seiner Kirche immer wieder Konzerte und Events. Auch in Gottesdiensten wird hin und wieder Bezug zur Musikszene genommen. So findet im November beispielsweise ein Kulturgottesdienst zum Thema Linkin Park im Gedenken an den verstorbenen Leadsänger Chester Bennigton statt. Unter anderem werden Klassiker der Band auf der Kirchenorgel gespielt. Zurück zum Abend. Pünktlich um 20 Uhr betreten Ray Wilson und Band die „Bühne“. Ihr Programm „Genesis Classic“ ist in zwei Sets mit je zehn Songs aufgeteilt und wird eröffnet mit ‚Another Day‘, einem Song seines ersten Solo-Albums nach dem Ende von Genesis. Was folgt, ist ein bunter Mix aus Klassikern von Genesis (‚Carpet Crawlers‘, ‚No Son Of Mine‘, ‚In The Air Tonight‘, etc.) Phil Collins (‚Another Day In Paradise‘) und Peter Gabriel (‚In Your Eyes‘, ‚Solsbury Hill‘) – der Programmname ist also nicht wortwörtlich zu verstehen.

  • Large-Scale Strategy and Compositional Design in the Early Music of Genesis
    Copyrighted Material 12 Large-Scale Strategy and Compositional Design in the Early Music of Genesis MARK SPICER Th e title of this chapter might remind some readers of an article by Andrew Mead that appeared in Perspectives of New Music more than two decades ago (Mead 1985), in which the author used sophisticated set-theoretic analytical techniques to dig beneath the surface of Arnold Schoenberg’s music, disclos- ing a “large-scale strategy” at work within several of the twelve-tone composi- tions. Mead had the advantage of writing for a scholarly community already well convinced of Schoenberg’s genius. I suspect the idea of placing the music of the British rock group Genesis in the same league as Schoenberg would be greeted with considerable skepticism—if not downright horror—by many musicologists, and this is certainly not my intent in the present essay. (Alas, it will probably require some drastic revolutions in taste before such early- Genesis classics as “Th e Return of the Giant Hogweed” are admitted into the canon of twentieth-century masterworks.) But I do hope to show that despite being several musical worlds removed from Schoenberg, Genesis’ music is rich, diverse, and equally worthy of our analytical attention. One of the most infl uential and long-lasting of the so-called “progressive rock” bands that emerged in Britain around 1970 in the wake of the Beatles, Genesis is probably better known to most pop-rock fans as the supergroup who made frequent appearances on the Billboard charts during the 1980s and early 1990s, with

RIVELAZIONI ESOTERICHE E RIVOLUZIONE SESSUALE 84 ARTICOLI CORRELATI 126 3 www.centrosangiorgio.com INTRODUZIONE Maschere con la testa di una volpe, ali di pipistrello intorno al capo di Peter Gabriel. Una piscina con tre lamia (esseri mitologici metà donna e metà serpente). Una stanza con 32 porte. Questi sono solo alcuni esempi delle curiose trovate presenti negli album e nei concerti dei Genesis. Non è facile addentrarsi nei meandri dei testi e delle rappresentazioni del gruppo inglese, che si può tranquillamente considerare uno dei più colti e raffinati di tutto il panorama rock, soprattutto per quanto realizzato durante il loro periodo progressive degli anni ’70. Peter Gabriel (voce, flauto), Mike Rutherford (basso), Tony Banks (organo, mellotron, piano, ecc...) e il primo chitarrista Anthony Phillips provenivano da una prestigiosa scuola privata del Surrey, la Charterhouse. Ma anche i membri che si aggiunsero col terzo LP, il nuovo chitarrista Steve Hackett e il batterista Phil Collins non erano certo degli sprovveduti.
