In Genesis’ body of work, The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway is frequently considered a landmark album. Originally released on November 22, 1974, at the pinnacle of their early success, it came at a pivotal point in Genesis’ history. It is rated by music critics and scholars as one of the greatest albums of its era and one of the most influential progressive rock albums of all time.
The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition, due March 28 via Rhino, follows the arc of the album’s creation and tour. With input from all of the band members involved – Tony Banks, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Steve Hackett and Mike Rutherford - it comes in 5LP/Blu-Ray Audio, 4CD/Blu-Ray Audio and Digital (including Dolby ATMOS) formats, and includes the original album mix, remastered at Abbey Road Studios by Miles Showell from the 1974 analog tapes.
A Blu-ray audio disc includes the remastered 96kHz/24-bit high-resolution audio and Dolby Atmos mixes of the studio album done by Bob Mackenzie at Real World Studios under the supervision of Peter Gabriel and Tony Banks.
The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway Live At The Shrine Auditorium from January 24, 1975 is remastered and includes two encore tracks, “Watcher of the Skies” and “The Musical Box.” This is the first time the full live show, including the encore tracks, has been released in its entirety.
Three never-before-released demos from the legendary Headley Grange Session included as part of a digital download card with the full audio from the set.
A 60-page coffee table style book with Alexis Petridis liner notes, who interviewed all five band members to tell the story of The Lamb… – from the writing sessions to live performances – which is believed to be the only time this has happened since its original release.
The book also features images from Armando Gallo, Richard Haines and other noted photographers. A 1975 tour program reproduction, replica ticket and poster.
