Album 929
Genesis - Foxtrot
Year: 1972
Supper's Ready folks, and it's waiting for you. Ideally you'd want to listen to the holy trinity that is Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot and Selling England by the Pound. Gabriel's Genesis (not you Lamb) will forever stand the test of time as some of the finest music ever produced. We don't get the pure perfection of Close to the Edge but we get really close. Foxtrot always has something new for you on every listen. But let's talk about Supper's Ready, this is easily one of the greatest songs ever crafted, musical genius in seven parts. The solo during Ikhnaton and Itsacon and Their Band of Merry Men lets you know what this is all about. We have Gabriels whimsical hastily written lyrics best displayed in the utter chaos that is Apocalypse in 9/8, just listen to it, it is an utter masterpiece.
