Product Description

Description

When guitarist Steve Hackett left Genesis for a solo careerafter touring behind 1977's WIND AND WUTHERING, he was the second major defection the group had suffered in as many years. Instead of helplessly disintegrating, the remaining triocircled the wagons and bounced back with the solid AND THENTHERE WERE THREE.
Rather than employ any outside studio musicians to take up the slack, Tony Banks, Phil Collins, and Mike Rutherford instead played every instrument themselves. Resolutely reflective throughout, this 1978 release finds Genesis populating its songs with a broad range of characters. Among the more memorable ones are the fast-talking recordexec on "Down and Out" (a song that could be construed as aveiled swipe at the departed Hackett) and the larger-than-life cattle-driving cowpuncher on the synth-soaked "Ballad ofBig". Although the songs on this record are more concise than Genesis' earlier, conceptual work, the band still retainsthe gift of capturing moods. The breathtaking "Snowbound" perfectly encompasses the feeling of stepping outside into a freshly minted snowfall. An air of yearning runs through "Follow You Follow Me", a romantic yarn that also became Genesis' first American Top 30 hit.

5.0 out of 5 stars And Then There Were New Mixes, 8 April 2007
As with 'Wind', I have afforded this new stereo mix (I have not heard the surround mix) 5 stars, not because it is perfect, but because it is nevertheless so much improved over the poorly mixed original.

The vocals are bright and clear, having been stripped of the original cheap muddy reverbs and delays (echoes).

The guitars and keyboards are nicely balanced also, with Rutherford's guitar given a little more prominence than before.

But for me the biggest gain is in the sound of the drums, which no longer sound like Collins bashing a load of cardboard boxes. Ok, I exagerate, the sound wasn't quite that bad, but you take my point.

There are a couple of tracks, however, where - inexplicably - the drums (particularly the snare) are mixed far too low. 'Follow You Follow Me' is a case in point, and my favourite track of the album 'The Lady Lies' also lacks some drumming dynamics.

As with all of the five re-releases, the overall mix suffers with some harsh brick-wall compression flattening the dynamics and stopping the music 'breathing'. But when set against the improvements in clarity over the original (which was never that dynamic in the first place) this is tolerable. Who knows - maybe in another 10-20 years time these historic albums will be re-mixed/re-mastered once again and treated to a more subtle and sympathetic compression.

The DVD contains some nice extras. As with all the re-releases in the series, it houses a roughly 15-minute section of the band interview, in which all members - particularly Banks - speak eloquently, fondly, and critically of the album and the period.
A rather quaint 50-minute BBC documentary from 1978 documents pop combo Genesis on tour! Some of the naive narration from the BBC reporter is hilarious: 'You may have never heard of them, but you can bet your children have' - this of a band that had already been around for about a decade! Tremendous fun.

Buy this, be awed by the new clarity, and stick your original in the loft.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb release, 22 Jun 2007
By S. Byhurst (Horsham, Britain) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ignoring the remix/compression issue for now, I just want to say what a brilliant album this is. I have always loved it. Older Genesis fans are not keen on this one because there are no 15+ minute tracks(!), but for me this is where Genesis really started. Fantastic, melodic songs, exciting guitar from Mike, beautiful keyboard sounds and riffs from Tony, and great emotional Phil vocals. What more could you want? The remix/compression thing is a subjective issue, but personally I think the stereo mix is an improvement over the first remaster, and the SACD version even more so.

Great Music, this album set Phil Collins on his way to fame as the key vocal member of the band.
Wonderful syntheses.
