This group was the final evolution of the Genesis group and performed in 1974 and 1975. It included many members of Genesis and with the new additions totaled over 30 members including stage crew. The band had a larger rhythm section and horn section and continued the Christian ministry focus of its predecessor. Their songlist consisted of original material from various members of the group. The music and horn parts were all arranged by Paul Bourassa. The following tracks were recorded on a reel-to-reel tape recorder sitting on the stage during a live performance.
