  In November 1979, when Genesis performed "One for the Vine" live in London, they were in a transitional period following the release of their album "...And Then There Were Three..." in March of that year. This album marked the band's first studio effort as a trio after the departure of guitarist Steve Hackett, which led to a significant shift in their musical direction. The live recording captures Genesis at a pivotal moment in their evolution, showcasing their ability to adapt and create compelling music without their former member. "One for the Vine," though rarely performed live, demonstrates the band's sophisticated songwriting and displays their continued commitment to complex compositions and lyrical depth, which were hallmarks of their progressive rock identity. The performance underscores the band's growing popularity as they transitioned into a more accessible sound that would characterize their subsequent work in the 1980s.
