Description

Explore the profound legacy of one of progressive rock's most famous works. Published by Routledge as part of the Ashgate Popular and Folk Music Series, this book examines Genesis's 1974 double concept album, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. This work analyzes the complex story described by former frontman Peter Gabriel as a 'moral fable.' The narrative follows Rael, a Puerto Rican street tough from New York City, as he travels through a metaphysical realm following a strange encounter with a solid cloud. The book provides context for the album's surreal allegory, which draws from religious, literary, and psychological themes. Perfect for music historians and fans of progressive rock, this text offers a look into a masterpiece that continues to captivate listeners decades after its initial release. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding the artistic depth and thematic layers of this legendary musical era.
