Supper's Ready

Okay. Here we go. Just finished a head to head comparison of Supper's Ready from the original Gabriel vinyl version on Foxtrot vs Collin's vinyl version on Seconds Out. First, both are amazing. Collin's version wins the live performance aspect obviously. Gabriel's version just has that raw, young person's angst to it. It really can't be redone. I tried to make the Collin's version compare and it just ain't there. Granted, if you never heard the Gabriel version you would think the Collin's version was the cat's pajamas. My 2 inane cents.

Two different but similar interpretations for sure.

 

SR fans should also check out Steve Hackett’s solo version in recent years and the live version included on the first Genesis box set.  Impossible to choose the best, only a favorite at any particular time perhaps.  But the original on Foxtrot is THE one.  Recent digital remasters of that worth a check as well.
