This album showcases Genesis’ astonishing concert at the Hammersmith Odeon, in London, on 10 June 1976, during the A Trick of the Tail Tour.

Genesis released their seventh studio album, A Trick of the Tail, on 13 February 1976. It was the band’s first album to feature Phil Collins as lead vocalist following the departure of Peter Gabriel.

The tour in support of the album began in North America in March 1976. Genesis commenced the European leg of the tour with six consecutive shows at the Hammersmith Odeon, across 9–14 June. It was the only tour to feature Bill Bruford, of Yes and King Crimson fame, on drums.

Featured here, are spectacular renditions of fan favourites such as Firth of Fifth, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, Dance on a Volcano, Entangled, Squonk and more.

In addition, two tracks (Counting Out Time and The Carpet Crawlers) are taken from Genesis’ concert at Wembley Empire Pool, on 15 April 1975, during the band’s The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway Tour. The performance featured Peter Gabriel on vocals.
