Released in 1973, Genesis’ Selling England By The Pound provided social commentary on the changing face of life in Great Britain and featured several tracks which would become staples of the band’s live show for decades to come. Former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett has just released a live album on which he revisits the LP in its entirety and performs one song started during those sessions but which he did not finish fully writing until decades later. We’ll hear from Hackett’s new effort as well as selections from the original Genesis LP.
Strange Currency with host Jedd Beaudoin can be heard Fridays at 8:00 pm on KRCB-FM / streaming @ norcalpublicmedia.org / Listen on the FREE KRCB Mobile App which you can download from the App Store & Google Play.
