Seconds Out

Seconds Out is the second live album by Genesis, released on 14 October 1977. It was compiled from shows recorded during four nights at Paris' Palais des Sport between 11 and 14 June 1977. "The Cinema Show", a recording from the previous year at Pavillon de Paris, Paris, on 23 June 1976 with Bill Bruford on drums, is also included. The album was conceived to be a representation of the updated live set-up with Phil Collins on vocals handling Gabriel's lead parts. It also provided the band with an opportunity to release a first live recording of "Supper's Ready".
