A flawless masterpiece!

Not knowning really what new could I add to review this fave album, I listened it thoroughly again after many years of abstinence. This is definitely a defining moment of progressive rock and if asked to single out an album in order to explain to an alien what prog is, "Foxtrot" would probably be a choice. True, the sound and production is not perfect, but the overall musical concept, performance and idea are very strong. Apart from all the band members being at their best, actually it is M. Rutherford who gave his probably the strongest contribution to a GENESIS album, with his melodic solo bass lines and firm 12-strings rhythm guitars throughout the album. Absolutely recommended not only to prog rock fans but to all lovers of epic and ellaborate musical art.
