DESCRIPTION : IT'S CALLED "POINTING AT THE TOP'' 3 LP 33rpm. BOX SET #4042 - 45. RECORDED AT MAIMARKTGELANDE IN MANNHEIM 20th JUNE 1987. FROM A RADIO BROADCAST SWF3 RADIO IN STEREO MADE IN GERMANY DELUXE COLOR BOX SET NOTES: Maimarktgelande, Mannheim, 20th June 1987 Within a couple of weeks German fans were treated to another complete live Genesis broadcast, this time courtesy of SWF3 Radio. SWF stands for sud-west-funk which translates to south-west-radio, and covered the south western region of Germany consisting of "Rhineland-Palatinate" (Mannheim, Mainz, Koblenz, Trier, Saarbrucken) and "Haden-Wrtthemberg" (Karlsruhe, Stuttgart, Ulm, Lindau, Singen, Freiburg). In 1999 SWF3 was dissolved and merged with another station, SDR, to become SWR3. Before the merger SWF3 had a strong reputation as a progressive station and regularly made complete and uninterrupted broadcasts of live concerts by major acts. SWR3 archives informed me that they do not have this Genesis concert in their archives because the contract was for one broadcast only. While the performance itself was wonderful it was beset with difficulties. Torrential rain continued throughout, so that half way through the concert (immediately after the old medley) it was necessary to move the stage back to avoid the electrical problems which flooding might cause. So SWF3 listeners were treated to a few minutes of live coverage of the stage being relocated instead of the planned performance of Tonight Tonight Tonight. From the outset a troublesome element in the crowd, identified by Phil as an American contingent, threatened to disrupt the show. Phil requested a halt to pushing at the earliest pause immediately after Abacab. Problems intensified after Domino with a prolonged chant of U.S.A after which Phil dropped his amiable persona to announce "... I know you want to have a good time, I know you're Americans, but just cool it ... don't make trouble". Further entertainment is provided by an uncharacteristic slip up from Mike for the climax of his solo finishing That's All, several rather creative notes cascade from the guitar before getting back on track.
