 (59 Customer Reviews)
Peter Gabriel's conceptual lyricism reached its apex on the double-length LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY. An epic undertaking even for a band used to 10- and 20-minute songs, LAMB weaves over 20 songs into one long suite ostensibly about the tribulations of its urban protagonist, Rael. The group achieves an unprecedented level of focus and force here. No matter how complex the guitar and keyboard themes get, they're driven home with enough force and conviction to make them instantly memorable.
The panoramic scale of Gabriel's lyrics is easily equal to the grandeur of the music, making this at once Genesis's most hard-edged and most complicated album. From the lush sweep of the opening title track to the almost Beatles-esque Britpop of "Counting Out Time," Genesis is at the top of its compositional game throughout LAMB. Having thoroughly topped himself with this release, Gabriel subsequently quit the group, leaving Phil Collins to take over as vocalist for the next phase of the Genesis story.
Genesis: Peter Gabriel (vocals, flute); Steve Howe (guitar); Mike Rutherford (12-string guitar, bass instrument); Tony Banks (keyboards); Phil Collins (vibraphone, drums, background vocals).
Additional personnel: Brian Eno.
Q (12/94, pp.162-3) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...Their masterpiece...Sprawling and often obscure, it's the nearest they got to being cool....it iconised America in the same way SELLING ENGLAND [BY THE POUND] did their home country..."
Q (Magazine) (p.120) - "'Back In NYC' plays like a trial run for the sort of edgy pop Gabriel would later make as a solo artist."
Mojo (Publisher) (3/01, p.82) - "...Ambitious if often bewildering double set....Genesis began to perceived as a one-man band [Gabriel's]. He left at the end of the tour." Genesis Lamb Lies Down On Broadway Songs | | Lamb Lies Down On Broadway CD DISC 1: |

PARANOID proved to be Black Sabbath's most focused, consistent, and successful record. Leaving behind the amorphous, extended jams of their debut for focused songs and a more structured sound, Black Sabbath virtually wrote the book on heavy metal with the ominous, unforgettable riffs, thunderous rhythms, and dark themes on this release. There are some up-tempo rockers, ...

About dannydolinger:From before I could see over the dashboard of my daddy's early sixties Chevy wagon, that dashboard with a light show like a KISS concert, I knew what I wanted out of life. All the unbelievable noises that came out of that rack of magical lights and dials. My first favorite song was "The Lonesome Fugitive", by Merle Haggard. "Down every road there's always one more city", yep, I saw my future pretty clear around four or five years of age. Definately anything with acoustic guitar made me jump out of my seat belt to dance on my poor daddy's dash (which, in an early sixties Chevy was as big as a gym floor). Any song that added heartache, homesickness, or wanderlust, well I still hear my daddy saying to my momma, "We gotta get better damn restraints for that young'in". Yes, it was a more innocent age when babies had a right to fly through the windshield if they so chose, but not in my daddy's car. A very strict ...
