Topic Link: Genesis - Platinum Collection. Box-Set 3CD (2004)

This post has been edited by OlCh on 17-10-2008, 07:39

November 2004 will go down in the books as the most expensive month for fans of Genesis proper and related. Almost simultaneously, the various camps in the Genesis universe released DVDs. They reach from Phil Collins’ live recording of the First Final Farewell-Tour, Peter Gabriel’s video omnibus Play and Steve Hackett’s tour documentary Once Above A Time to a not quite official double DVD documentary entitled Inside Genesis – A Critical Review 1970-1980. To all that, Virgin Records added their costumary Christmas releases. This year, it’s The Video Show, a compilation of Genesis promo videos and the only CD box amongst the flood of releases meant to attract those looking for just the right gift for a Genesis fan. We’re talking about the 3CD Platinum Collection box, of course.
Even though some fans were disappointed by the lack of new material, the Platinum Collection deserves a closer look, not least because it is the first compilation of Genesis songs to cover the band’s whole career. Genesis buffs will be delighted to find that many of the older songs were carefully remixed so that they appear in a whole new light. The reason why Genesis went to such lengths with the songs is, of course, the upcoming release of the band’s complete back catalogue on SACD in 5.1 surround mixes, their very first album From Genesis To Revelation, however, excepted. To accomplish the remixes, one has to separate the original multitrack recordings and remix them completely. Many of these songs have been treated like that already. The by-products of the 5.1 mixes, i.e. the all-new stereo mixes, were used for this Genesis starter kit. The Platinum Collection does not consist of newly recorded or restructured versions of the songs, which is what many people would call a ‘remix’. There were neither additions nor was anything left out. The songs were simply brushed up using modern technology. The net result is a much more homogenous audio tour through the history of Genesis than it was hitherto possible to have. People who are familiar only with the more recent and better-known output of our heroes will find it much easier to discover Genesis’ past. That’s why the tracks are in an (almost correctly) anti-chronological order, starting with more recent material and proceeding to older songs.

Thanks Mr Hide

CD1 1997 – 1982

CD1 covers the last four studio releases. There may not be a lot of material to choose from from those last 15 years, in particular if you compare it to the output of their first 15 years. But it certainly was the period in which the band were at their most popular and successful. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that many of the songs featured here also appeared on the 1999 Hits Collection. On this CD, however, you will find almost nothing but complete album versions.
The disc opens with hits from the 1992 We Can’t Dance album. Not only fans of post-Collins Genesis and Ray Wilson’s voice won’t find that too logical, but it makes sense for people who are not yet familiar with the band: It is familiar sounds that lead them into the world of Genesis. The following songs make their appearance: No Son Of Mine (with an intro shortened by two bars), I Can’t Dance, Jesus He Knows Me and Hold On My Heart.
The next five songs take you back in time, precisely to 1986, because they are all from Invisible Touch. Again, the focus was on single releases. The live classic Domino would have been a very welcome addition to many, but, well, these are the songs: Invisible Touch, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight (shortened single version), Land Of Confusion and In Too Deep.
The self-titled album from 1983 was worthily represented by all tracks from side one of the album, i.e. the single hits Mama and That’s All, the live classic Home By The Sea and its other half, Second Home By The Sea. Illegal Alien was not quite as successful a single, but it is included here, too. We are pleased to note that it is a remixed version of the song and that the backing vocals are much more differentiated.
The next song, Paperlate, was never released on a regular album but only as a single / EP (in 1982). It is a leftover from the 1981 Abacab sessions. This is a new mix compared to Paperlate’s latest appearance on the Archive 2 box set. The brass is much stronger, the vocals were moved into the foreground and some of the keyboard parts are more prominent than before.
The title song of the first album the band released with new singer Ray Wilson after Collins‘ departure closes the first disc. Curiously enough, it was Calling all stations and not the album’s most successful single Congo that was picked. Apparently, even One Man’s Fool was shortlisted for this box at one time. It seems that the band felt they did not need any other tracks from that album, though.

В торрент бы их. Но ведь для ословода "осел" не осел, а "священная корова"

а не большой размерчик для торрента? ведь у вас теперь там в моде мп3 и пр... впрочем, можешь скачать и сидай тама на здоровье

а корова тут не причем, просто от добра добра не ищут

Ну, я за модой не слежу.

Спасибо. Но когда я вижу себя три тысячи каким-нибудь в очереди, мне уже ничего качать не хочется.

Конечно, конечно.

спасииииибо огрооооомное

а что тут вообще пробегало из genesis? у меня только "продается англия...", "заклание агнца...", "дюк", "...и они остались втроем" и "а мы ниумеим танцювать".

кто-то вроде обещал перестать паковть в экзотические звуковые форматы ?

за генезис спасибы , только один файл уже зашёл , а второй ещё даже бита не закачал

цитирую сам себя

"от вавпака, скорее всего, придётся отказаться, но не потому, что многие против, а потому, что никого нет ЗА
а мне оно в каждом топике всяко-разно выслушивать и нафик не надо
к сожалению я в единственном числе пытался "пропихнуть" этот кодек и именно гибрид но, видать, народ не созрел, зажирел, заскоруз...
не могу гарантировать, что больше не будет релизов WavPack Hybrid, потому как роздано друзьякам ой как много в этом формате "

странно а другие качают и качают

о , не успел пожаловаться , как второй зашёл
а то тут все торрент , торрент .
в осле быстренько налилось
спасиб

а зачем там 2 файла и где брать паковалку?

усё есть внутрях, а Topic Link: WavePack ? что это такое и с чем его едят?

о, а я проспал, что ты проспал
а пробегало, наверное, всё из них, но 2 года назад
но есть пара альбомов "посвежее"
