Three Sides Live
Encyclopedia
Three Sides Live is the third live album by British Progressive Rock band Genesis
, released in 1982.
EP and two of which were B-sides
from the sessions for Duke
. The studio side is no longer issued as part of the album. Only the UK release featured a fourth live side, consisting of performances recorded during previous tours.
Upon its mid-1982 release, Three Sides Live reached No.2 in the UK and No.10 in the US.
The three live sides focus mostly on material from Duke and Abacab
. The third side contains the centrepiece of their last few tours, the "Cage" medley. The medley starts with "In the Cage
" (from The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway
), follows with an instrumental which combined motifs from "The Cinema Show
" and a changing set of melodies from Wind & Wuthering
and The Lamb, and finishes with "Afterglow".
"Paperlate
", from 3 X 3, became a Top 10 UK hit and a smaller US success. It stemmed from Phil Collins' riffing on one of the lines of their 1973 song, "Dancing with the Moonlit Knight". According to Tony Banks on the 2007 CD and DVD reissue of Abacab, "You Might Recall" was to appear on Abacab, but Atlantic Records
founder Ahmet Ertegün
suggested that the band leave the track off in favour of "Who Dunnit?".
In 1994, Three Sides Live was remastered and reissued with the UK edition worldwide. Four of the five additional studio selections from that out of print release would be issued in 2000 on the Genesis Archive 2: 1976-1992
box set (all but "Me And Virgil"), and all five songs have since been included on the bonus disc of the Genesis 1976-1982

History
The title for this album comes from the original world release, which contained three sides of live material from the band's 1981-82 tour, and a fourth side of studio tracks, three of which formed the British 3 X 33 X 3
The response to the album was mixed. Dave Thompson of Allmusic gives it three stars out of five, citing "Paperlate" as the EP's selling point. Thompson describes "Paperlate" as "a horn-honking romp with just the ghosts of '60s soul playing around its chorus and a buoyancy that fed readily into the...

", "You Might Recall", "Me and Virgil", "Evidence of Autumn" and "Open Door". The album was re-issued identically only on CD worldwide with the live performances in 1994. - On some editions, "One for the Vine" is divided in two parts. As a result, there are mistakes in the track listing. Part two is listed as "The Fountain of Salmacis", but "The Fountain of Salmacis" is inserted on track 6, "It/Watcher of the Skies". The titles of tracks 4, 5 and 6 of disc 2 should be: "One for the Vine, Pt. 1" (5:03); "One for the Vine, Pt. 2" (6:00); "The Fountain of Salmacis/It/Watcher of the Skies" (15:59).
- While doing the 2009 remix for Three Sides Live, producer Nick Davis was informed that the version of "The Fountain Of Salmacis" used for Three Sides Live came from tapes marked as "Houston, 22-10-1978". However, "The Fountain Of Salmacis" was dropped from the set two months prior in the beginning of the second American leg of the tour, never to reappear. Furthermore, radio reels attributed to being from Houston include tracks likely taken from a European venue, which would indicate that this was also the case for "The Fountain Of Salmacis" (as this song was played systematically on the European leg of the tour). This would not have been the only time a Genesis radio show had been compiled from different concerts but being attributed to only one of them; the "Three Sides Live" shows listed above normally figure only as "Nassau, 29-11-1981", in spite of most tracks actually being from Birmingham, 23-12-1981.
