Track of the week 22/10/17
Bit of a left field entry this week – I certainly wasn’t into Genesis back in the day, in fact they were (in my humble twelve year old opinion!) the complete antithesis of cool, irrelevant prog-rock dinosaurs that were rightly being swept away by Mod, Ska and New Wave music.
So how come this track has made it onto my coveted track of the week list?
Well, one I am now much more tolerant and much less tribal, and if I like a track, so be it.
But more importantly, it was the final track accompanying the final scene of the final series of “Halt and Catch Fire”- a fantastic series that I have been watching since the summer (on Amazon Prime) that charts the personal computer revolution and the rise of the world wide web.
Has to be up there with some of the best telly I’ve watched in the last couple of years – in the same pantheon as Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Stranger Things and Deutchsland 83. (Oh and Vikings, just remembered that great series.)
