In my post of Supersister live in Meerlo I mentioned that Genesis was playing at that festival too. A Genesis fan club picked this up, they have a list of all the Genesis performances, but the concert at the Midsummer Pop Festival 1972 in Meerlo was not on that list, even not on the gig list of Phil Collins. After some investigation they managed to find a copy of a collage with a newspaper print of a photo of the appearance of Genesis on stage in Meerlo, July 8th 1972, made by Joeps van Hees!

So I was not hallucinating (and neither did my ticket).



Their request is:
Does anybody have more photos or recordings of the performance of Genesis in Meerlo?
If so, or you know a nice story about it, please mail pcn<at>live<dot>nl or leave a comment here.
They will be grateful and probably reward you with a rare recording of Genesis, just as they gave me.
And they didn't mind if I shared this recording, so here it is.

In a previous post I requested some rips of Vinyl magazine flexi discs.
Toon from Belgium was kind enough to send me those.

In October I posted Gerry & the Holograms on Another Absurd Record.
Without me knowing it, the guy(s) of Mein Walkman Ist Kaputt posted in November six other releases of that label.
I just found out.

I have to do this, it costs too much data traffic.



The possibility to listen comes back, but then with fragments.
