The lyricism of progressive pop
A life story woven by Mike and the Mechanics.
This is a masterpiece by the band led by Mike Rutherford of Genesis. The title track, "The Living Years," is loved worldwide as a moving ballad about the relationship between father and son. This is an emotionally rich album that blends pop sensibilities with the complexity of progressive rock.
