I was wrapping Christmas gifts this afternoon and I popped on Genesis "Wind and Wuthering." I had old Gabriel Genesis running through my mind all morning, stuff like "Magical Box" and "Return of the Giant Hogweed." So I'm not sure why my fingers stopped on "Wind and Wuthering" when I went to get an album but they did. The songs "Afterglow" and "Eleventh Earl of Mar" came to mind and made me select this record instead of one of the earlier ones. It's a slow enchanting album, and it's nice to hear music like this to calm the nerves from a day in holiday traffic.
I guess I hadn't listened this album in a while because I sort of forgot how "Blood on the Rooftops" went. Kind of eerie to hear these days. Maybe not very Christmassy, but I sure am glad I listened. Check it out.
