Genesis 1967-1980

from The Well Of Sound

It's been a long wait, but Dave and Lex are back with Part 1 of the Genesis saga. Before neon palm trees and Spago lunches were on their radar, these legends of 1980s pop found their footing during the early days of prog rock with songs of knights, dukes, deadly croquet games, foxes in red dresses, and castrated slippermen. Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford, Tony Banks, Steve Hackett, and more harmonize, clash, and synth their British hearts out across the '70s. Plus, Dave and Lex are finally converted into full-blown prog-heads. You won't want to miss this deluxe epic-sode. If you like what you hear, be sure to rate the podcast or leave us a review.
