As an aside, with respect to Genesis midi files, has anyone ever had a crack at midi-filing "The Light"? Likely to be quite a tricky one to do, I know, even after you've imported bits from all the stuff they picked out of it.

Hi again,
Thanks for the good MIDI info so far.... What I can get by
with is chords for songs & tunes (like mentioned below) but just
the letters... So, for example the 'Tron chords for "Watcher" are
(I don't know em) I haven't even found guitar tabs for it, but some
guitar tabs might have them...(BTW I know Hackett has some of his
music available in written form... anyhow).
For example if the chord progression was something like;
A B A C A B (pardon the pun ;)
Then I can go here and find the right chords..(this is a cool link
for keys).
http://www.pianoworld.com/fun/vpc/piano_chords.htm
And then try to play 'em... :)
Cheers,

Careful, Clay - you're entering Genesis \ufffdber-nerd territory... :-) 'The Light' was an early piece, played live in '71, later rifled for 'Lilywhite Lilith'.

Andy, Maybe he's referring to Spock's Beard's "The Light"? Pete Andy Thompson wrote:

Ugh, god, no. I really don't like Spock's Beard. I was referring to the poor little orphaned Genesis track, the only known recording of which I have as part of the "hogweeds" set of remastered live boots. I stripped the track out of the CD and bunged it into "Cubase", intending to work on it myself, I thought it would be a larf to play it live, especially to a progressive-orientated crowd, if only to see the look of appalled recognition on the faces of, I dunno, 2 people. But, as anyone who's heard it knows, even in the remastered version (& comparing this to the previously available version, the guy who did it worked a miracle on it), the sound quality is really, really, really bad. wtfe, anyway. Is there a recording of "Moss", from the same era out there, does anyone know? best etc.

I've discovered something . the watcher of the skies intro is hugely inspired ( like that I don't say it's a ripoff and the myth is safe ... ) by WAGNER siegfried ( prelude of ACT III ) . it's very obvious

The prelude to Act One has the same feel and it has a rhythm near the end that is similar to the Watcher Of The Skies "morse code" rhythm. I'm sure that Richard Wagner would have loved the mellotron brass sound. Clay
