Genesis - down and out, 1978

"And Then There Were Three has a distinct sort of sound to it that pervades every song. Fittingly, that exact sound, that distilled “Essence of Three,” if you will, is the first thing you hear when you spin up the album. It’s not just the instrumentation, but the way it’s played. There’s something almost-but-not-quite otherworldly about it. And then that riff kicks in, and you think you’re maybe getting something a bit different, but a few measures later you’re firmly entrenched in that inescapable “Three” sound, crawling up your spine in lockstep with Tony’s keys crawling up the melody during the second half of the verses."
