Never ceases to amaze me!

Why wasn't there any high definition digital recording technology in those days? What a shame that most of these old 70's gigs where so poorly recorded.

There were some exceptions such as Led Zeppelin's "The song remains the same" film that was originally shot on 35mm with a 24-track quadraphonic sound recording, at a cost of $85,000 to shoot the live footage in the US alone. The band's manager, Peter Grant, called it "the most expensive home movie ever made", and today we all thank the band for that "management" decision! Kudos for the band's investment.

But most of them didn't had the public nor the funds that would justify such an investment.

Either way it's all about the music and the show itself and boy did PG's Genesis era know how to put one.

Nowadays newer generations don't get that much impressed with the characterization used at the time neither with the production level of these shows. I understand, I really do...

But you need to put things in context and a instead of being more excited with the high technicolor production level of today's standard, really listen to the music and pay attention to the story telling.

Absolute bliss if you ask me. Just my 2¢
