An absolutely wonderful track and perfect image to go with it. Beautiful moody piece. “Lamb Lies Down….” was my favorite era Genesis. Actually pretty much anything before “Duke” was interesting in my opinion but then I’m a big sucker for so-called dinosaur rock or progressive rock. Great post.
Well said my friend… Thank you very much!
I would add that …even Duke had its moments.
And everything Genesis did before that is as close as it gets to perfection, when it comes to “pop music”.
