Genesis on ‘The Midnight Special’ With Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins

From the article:

An official YouTube Channel has been created for The Midnight Special TV series, celebrating the legendary late-night show with restored performances featuring the biggest names in music, comedy and entertainment from the 70s and early 80s. The March 6, 2023, launch is from producer Burt Sugarman.

From musical legends like Tina Turner, Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Elton John, The Beach Boys, Fleetwood Mac, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Johnny Cash, and Olivia Newton-John, to comedians like Steve Martin, Billy Crystal, Richard Pryor and George Carlin, The Midnight Special showcased many of the industry’s biggest artists between 1972 and 1981.

Although their first Atlantic release was only a few months old, Genesis performed “The Musical Box,” a macabre, though epic number from their third album, 1971’s Nursery Cryme, in an episode of The Midnight Special that was taped on December 18, 1973, at NBC Studios in Burbank, Calif.
