Chris is in a band. They do original material as well as Genesis and other  
covers. I just thought it was a pretty good job. It's one thing to learn 
the  guitar parts, or the keyboard parts or to be able to play along on the 
Casio,  but to learn EVERY part and to be proficient on every instrument 
screams  talent. Look around for his other work.

By the way... Andy, whatever music you crank out, I look forward to  
hearing.
 
Martin... I just want to hear you sing.

I also  never play the same music twice as I improvise  100% of the time.

Blyme, that's amazing!
 
By the way, neither Mike or myself copied anybody. Our submissions were  
based purely an exercise in sound textures. For me, it was something I always  
wanted to do. A one off, which I did a couple of years ago.
Personally, I wouldn't want to spend what time I have left on this  planet 
covering someone else's material, when I have so many more songs still  
unwritten.
But I think this guy who's done the Suppers Ready thing deserves credit  
for a pretty decent job. The only issue I have is that I find it difficult  
getting around the accent of the guy singing!
As you say, each to his own.

Doesn't anyone compose original music anymore?
Don't get me wrong, I'm a major fan of Genesis and a lot of  other bands I 
hear the group "covering", but to me music is a personal  expression. I also 
never play the same music twice  as I improvise 100% of the time.
Not at all dismissing your efforts, in fact kudos to you  all, I just 
express MY feeling regardless of how much I admire the work of  others. I just 
don't care to copy them up to my maximun  ability.
Oh well to each their own.
 
Tony

Here Chris Lawley plays Supper's Ready by himself... All parts except  the 
vocals. It took him 8 months to make this video. He is an incredible  
musician and a really nice guy. Check it out. It's in 3 parts
