Genesis: “Dusk” (1970)

From the band’s classic lineup, fronted by Peter Gabriel. Progressive rock truly enjoyed a golden age in the late 60’s/early 70’s, when bands were for the first time discovering nearly limitless freedoms in both lyrical subject matter and song length.

But it wasn’t always about complexity and dazzling virtuosity. Sometimes Prog was just about creating a thing of beauty, like this relatively overlooked gem from the Trespass album.
