Foxtrot / The Legend ”Must !!! Have !!!”

Genesis – Foxtrot

-Foxtrot

-is the fourth studio album by English progressive rock band Genesis, released on October 6, 1972 on Charisma Records.

It contains their longest recorded song, the 23-minute track "Supper's Ready".

According to many trade magazines, this is one of the best Prog Rock releases of all time because of its complexity.

The album was recorded following the tour in support of their previous album Nursery Cryme (1971) which saw them gain popularity including a well received performance at the Great Western Express Festival in Lincolnshire in May 1972.

Written over the summer of 1972, the album combined songs already performed live with new material worked out in jam sessions. Recordings began in August with John Anthony, but sessions were prone to tension and disagreements. After a brief tour of Italy, the sessions continued with Dave Hitchcock as producer. The cover was the last Genesis work designed by Paul Whitehead and featured a fox in a red dress. Frontman Peter Gabriel wore the dress and a fox head on stage for the following tour, attracting press attention and increasing the group's notoriety.

Foxtrot was the first Genesis album to chart in the UK, peaking at number 10 and receiving mostly positive reviews.

In Italy it landed at number one.
