In fact this riff became the outro to an obscure b-side from Rutherford's Smallcreep's Day, a song called "Compression." kzread.info/dash/bejne/iHaZsKuFecuYdNI.html. It's a very good song.

How cool -- you can hear Rutherford on guitar/sitar, playing one of the melodies from his 1980 B-side "Compression" from 3:00 on ... Amazing!

This was one of Rutherford's bits. It ended up being the end section of "Compression", which was the non-album flipside of "Waiting in Line", the single taken from Mike's first solo album "Smallcreep's Day"

+plod - I have to admit that when I read what you wrote I at first thought you were hearing things, but indeed around the 4:00 mark it began to emerge and wound up being almost note-for-note. Good ear and I apologize for doubting you. You must be quite the fan to know of that song. I thought I was the only one. ; )

Truthfully, I only realized it myself when a fellow fan pointed it out a few years ago. I have several boots of the Lamb sessions, but never actually noticed it myself until my friend made me pull out this particular session and listen again. Of course then, I heard it right away. The sad part is you really have to be a dedicated Rutherford fan to even know the song it became: "Compression" , which was left off Smallcreeps Day and was only released as the flipside to "Working in Line". I only knew it because I found the single at a used shop in the 80's. I hope some day Mike re-releases it with the track added back in. It's a lovely piece, that could really use a good remix!

+plod - Yes I agree. Simon Phillips percussive work on that track(and indeed the entire album) is stunning. The song would have made a decent closing track to side 1(in America anyway, as on British copies, side 1 was the Smallcreep side). I found my copy of the single at a record convention in the mid-90s.

Steve had such a unique sound. He wanted nothing to do with ‘shredding’ or showing off, just gently adding textures and making his instrument ‘yearn’ rather than ‘scream’. The band really lost its soul when he left.

The riff here was resurrected for Mike's song ''Compression'' that featured as a B Side to the song ''Working In Line''. from the ''Smallcreep's Day'' album. It was the closing riff to the song and fades after about a minute and a half. Great riff.

Wow this is very rare and it gives us an insight into how they did these sessions jamming i suppose they all had different ideas on how to collaborate wonderful stuff😊😊😊😊😊😊

Hermoso juego de guitarras entre Hacket y Rutherford....excelente.

A month earlier I saw them by chance. Had nothing else to do. Me and my friend went. I didn't even know who they were at the time. Took some Microdot and was pleasantly surprised. Lol

Very interesting and great to have. Thanks.

Love it! Especially with Phils' work with the drums.

OMG - so it is! I still wonder whey "Compression" never made it onto the "Smallcreep's Day" album!

brings back good memories

I think what we're listening to here might just be the very early attempts at what later becomes an intro to "broadway melody of 1974" from Lamb Lies down on Broadway. Hackett's sitar like guitar lines and Collins crashing drums are very simliar in that piece.

Buggar it, I love Peter and Phil both xxx

This is very good wow !

I know Hackett played the electric sitar for "I Know What I Like" in live shows, so I'm assuming he played it on record too.

It's Compression!

meraviglioso

Never knew that, thanks...Phil always denied Silver Song existed, it does, I've heard it.

...Broadway Melody of 1974...

This is the part that ended up being the beautiful and tragic end section of Mike Rutherford's 'Compression'- a b-side from his album Smallcreep's Day. I SO wish he would re-release the song in some form. There seems to be ONE single horrible recording of it off of someone's record, playback pitch problems and all, that constitute any hits you get searching for it.

As for who was best - Phil or Peter? It was a draw. Both fantastic. What were the odds of them both being in the same band? These fellas, along with several others from their generation, have played such a massive part in my life. Queen, Genesis and Pink Floyd - thank you!

rutherford brings guitar riff back in his solo album smallcreeps day

first thing i think when i hear this is zappa's "what's new in baltimore"

If you're a fan of YES too....their studio sessions are on KZread also. Their behind the scenes stuff is pretty cool too.

Not bad at all! It really fits squarely into the "Selling England" songs. I wish it had become a song. Has to be Steve on Guitar. I wonder who overdubbed the electric sitar line.

Nice Sitar.. i guess they must have started a jam session going into I KNOW WHAT I LIKE soon after

Yep, you can see roughly where the ideas for "Fly on a windshield" and "Broadway melody 1974" came from 😎👍

You can hear how they developed the ideas to become 3 of the tracks from,' The Lamb Lies Down', album.

it sounds like working out the closing section of Dancing With The Moonlit Knight

Sounds like they are using the electric sitar that they used in the title track Selling England by the Pound. Tune also sounds like After the Ordeal.

E' stato realizzato nel 1980 da Mike Rutherford nel finale del brano Compression!!

This sounds similar to a track called 'you know you know' by Mahavishnu orchestra.Check it out,see what you think.

defenetely, around 1:40 you can see hacketts work at making the FOAW solo

Right on the cusp of when contact lenses were invented, no doubt...

@petermayer: had the same thought. it sure sounds like that's mike with the sitar. or steve is playing both and this was not recorded live. but it sounds like the kind of theme mike would play.

You don't often hear Steve's laser guitar with what sounds like electric sitar at the same time.

@Hickers75 ye this does have mahavishnu influence for sure!

Super's ready is my favorite.

wonderful to get some insight into their processes at the time, I wonder if they said, well? Let's all keep jammin to this section of the tune for about 8 or 16 bars, and just repeat as its recorded then all on committee decide the best and play that part like that in the official take... Is that what's going on here?

Can’t think why this didn’t make it to the album. And, who stole Peter’s shirt!

Where did you get all those pics? They're wonderful! Oh, and this is a cool jam, BTW.

@ElGramofono or vice versa wink wink ...actually big fan of both. Genesis sure has a huge body of work though, plus reams of solo.

IMO this kind of music cannot be improvised. 2:26 the bottom pad of Collins tom was previously used as top one... No money enough at that time for the best band ever.

I'm wondering (insignificant in a way) if Peter didn't get the shaved head idea from Derek Shulman of Gentle Giant. Look at the inside of "Acquiring The Taste" (released the year before Peter did the reverse Mohawk thing) and tell me if Derek doesn't have that same 'hairdo'. It was brave to do that in the early '70s.

I hear something that will become Ripples.

... first picture (black & white ) at 1:00 is remarkingly so close looking like his daughter Lily Collins ...

They should have done this instead of And Then There Where Three.

There is no title track on Selling England By The Pound. There's a Coral sitar used during the verses of I Know What I Like. And yes, you're hearing that same instrument on this recording as well.

Good spot (the 'riff'; not the...well you know). It's been awhile since I looked on the back of Selling England; to see credits who plays the electric sitar (on I know what I like). 'thought it was Hackett, maybe not. Here it's clearly, sort of Rutherford. This improv falls in line nicely, to give it a name. It's actually quite interesting. The pics. it kindof occurs to me, never gave it much thought but aside from Gabriel changing his appearance often during the '70s..they 'all' did. cont'd

yes !!!! Mike obviously was listening to that Mahavishnu song,thus...
