Genesis

During the summer of 1982, Genesis was riding high on the success of their album "Abacab," which had released just a year prior. This project marked a significant shift in their sound, leaning into a more pop-oriented style that resonated with both old fans and new listeners. The live recording from Toronto features the extraordinary performance of "Supper's Ready," showcasing the band's incredible musicianship and the intricate composition that has made them legendary. Interestingly, this performance comes at a pivotal moment for Genesis, as they were transitioning into a period marked by commercial success while still maintaining their progressive rock roots. The band's dynamic on stage, especially during the unforgettable "Apocalypse in 9/8" segment, captures the essence of their evolution, making this live rendition a gem in their storied discography.
