Genesis

In January 1973, Genesis was in the midst of a dynamic phase in their career, following the release of their acclaimed album "Foxtrot," which came out in late 1972. This album marked a significant evolution in their sound, showcasing their progressive rock style and complex compositions. "Supper's Ready," a prominent piece from "Foxtrot," reflects the band's ambition and creativity, consisting of multiple movements and exploring grand themes. The live recording of "Supper's Ready" from 1973 captures their energetic performances during a time when they were solidifying their reputation as a leading progressive rock band. Interestingly, this era also marked the end of the band's early lineup featuring Peter Gabriel, whose theatrical stage presence was pivotal in defining their identity. This performance underscores the band's growing popularity and the innovative spirit that would define their later work.
