  In January 1978, Genesis was in the midst of touring in support of their album "Wind & Wuthering," which had been released in late 1976. This live recording captures the band during a pivotal time as they transitioned from the progressive rock sound of their earlier albums to a more polished pop-oriented approach that would characterize their subsequent work. The "Mirrors Tour" showcases the band's elaborate stagecraft, including innovative lighting and visual effects, which enhanced their performance experience. It's noteworthy that this tour featured key members like Phil Collins, who had taken over lead vocals after Peter Gabriel's departure, marking a significant shift in the band's dynamics. The concert exemplifies their ability to blend complex musical arrangements with engaging live shows, solidifying their reputation as one of the leading rock acts of the era.
