GENESIS BBC BROADCASTS: VINYL & CD

12th January 2023

Curated by founder member Tony Banks and long-time engineer and producer Nick Davis this new suite of releases is available as a 53-track 5CD set and 24-track, triple LP

Released on 3 March 2023, this is the first time all of these tracks (and you can find a full list below) have been released on vinyl and the first time a majority of the iconic 1987 Wembley show have been made available in an audio only format. All formats are available for pre-order now at Genesis.lnk.to/BBCbroadcasts.

In terms of dates? The collections range between 1970 and 1998 and include contributions from all three of the group’s vocalists, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins and, lest we forget, Ray Wilson. You’ll also find notes by author Michael Hann via the included 40-page booklet.

Stretching from the very beginnings of the band’s career via appearances on Night Ride and John Peel, the set encompasses both of the group’s Knebworth performances (1978 and 1992) as well as the 1980 show at London’s Lyceum and shows at Wembley in 1987.
