really no video here just a 'moon' gradually changing color. This is for the select few that are just happy to conveniently find this song on the web and just want to take a moment out and sit back and listen. Isn't that what it's really supposed to be about anyway? Look for Kim Poor's (Steve's wife) artistic vision of 'Mad Man Moon' at the very end ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Genesis, Six Hours Live, 1972-1980 2-DVD set RBarrier@optonline.net --- -------------------------- To hear the most beautiful rock music ever written, find a record store near you and buy these CDs from my favorite Genesis era: Trespass - 1970 Nursery Cryme - 1971 Foxtrot - 1972 Selling England By The Pound - 1973 The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway - 1974 A Trick Of The Tail - 1976 Wind Wuthering - 1977

Absolute masterpiece. I just found the first part on the piano...without papers. What an effort!!!! The Sandman part is 7/8 and not so fast with a beat in 4/4 in the middle.

LOL!...tks Rael..just tried counting it ...and i'm even more confused!..DOH!...I'm thinking it maybe is 7/8 but at quite a rapid tempo! It's such a brilliant bit of drumming there!...(it's that section that starts at 4:50 if anyone else wants to have a go!)

Was it summer when the river ran dry, Or was it just another dam. When the evil of a snowflake in June Could still be a source of relief. O how I love you, I once cried long ago, But I was the one who decided to go. To search beyond the final crest, Though I'd heard it said just birds could dwell so high.

nah you're thinking of "entanglred", but she did do a lot of paintings based on their lyrics, in fact she published a whole book of them back in 1978 or thereabouts, x

my favourite post-Gabriel Genesis song of all time...from the best post-Gabriel album...! although I recently discovered Tony Banks wrote it, along with the title track "A Trick of the Tail", way back in the early days?! Whatever, it's a beautiful song, and takes me way back to when I first became obsesed with Genesis, thanks...
