Episode 498-Genesis-The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
🎙️ This Week on America’s Podcast: It's a Joseph Staub Takeover! We're diving headfirst into Genesis' legendary double album, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. With guest Andy Rodriguez on hand, we tackle the big questions: Is this Peter Gabriel’s swan song of genius? Or does it just flop like a misguided attempt at hitting an erogenous zone? (No spoilers, promise… maybe.)
🔊 Tracks of the Week:
Marc picks "Heartbeat City" by The Cars, because nothing says love like a synth-pop groove.
Mooger goes deep with Tool’s "Right In Two", proving existential crises can sound amazing.
Andy keeps it classic with Genesis’ "Squonk", because mythical creatures deserve jams too.
Joseph wraps it up with "In The Dark" by Billy Squier—mood lighting not included.
Until next time, stay sexy, stay rockin’, and remember: orgasms are metal. #Genesis #TheLambLiesDown #PeterGabrielEra #ProgRockLegends #TracksOfTheWeek #freeformrockpodcast
