most likely, he did just about everything else on stage, or did Peter's mike stand make a strike.

Too bad there are really only 3 Gabriel-era shows with good sound and video out there...AFAIK. I could watch them over and over again!

Some day, when they (!) can tap into my brain there will be more available.

I may regret this one day, but I really hope they can make that happen! Either that or someone will come forward with awesome footage from the early Lamb tour or some obscure Trespass-era gig.

Man...
On another note, this one's wonderful. Phil is on fire!

You can really hear the jazz in Phil's playing on that. IIIRC, one of the reasons he got involved with Brand X (who I have seen a couple times in the '70s, too) was that he felt people didn't take him that seriously as a drummer as far as chops go.
BTW, Percy was my first inspiration to want to play fretless bass. Once I heard Unorthodox Behavior when it came out I pulled the frets of my '72 Telecaster Bass!

Brand X eventually morphed into Tunnels who I have seen many times, my old jazz fusion band, Rare Blend, even did a double bill with them at a gig in Baltimore; I have played that bass Percy is playing.

Here is me with my former July '73 4001, and drummer Paul Stranahan at that gig (note Percy's bass behind me).

This is why I like this Forum! Thanks to everyone for the clips!
(I was robbed...when I saw Brand X Phil wasn't available and Goodsall had a broken hand! They sorta did a "jazz-odyssey" gig a la Spinal Tap.)

I remember when John had his broken hand, late '70s, at Bogarts in Cinci. More time for Percy and Robin to play.

Got pics?
I know I've seen you play, surprisingly enough, around the same timeframe!

1978 if I recall correctly. They backed up UK (at least at the Central Park show I saw). That was a heck of a show!
there will be more available.
