Just to be clear: this is not sourced from any silver in circulation but from my tape. On the other side, I cannot confirm
if the source my tape is taken from, has been used for any silver. As other versions, this sounds excellent. I was told by
friends that this was recorded using a portable Revox Reel machine but I have no infos about the exact generation of my copy
so I am not going to guess.

This was considered for many years, before the time of La Ferme V, before all the board Lambs or the great broadcasts, the
holy grail for any Genesis collector. That hidden track, 'Going Out To Get You' was the one many have heard of, but actually
never heard it! Until the single track was released about 10 years ago in a well famous box set. And then the whole thing
was discovered and made it available.

This is my version of it. I took the freedom to re-work on it a little bit since there are many alternative versions
circulating, both on eq's and speed which has been reduced by approx. 3-4%. That's why this is slightly longer than other
versions but I do not believe there is additional music. You may like it or not, this was done according to my taste. The show is incredible, probably the best one from the first italian tour of 1972. Enjoy!
