Another beautiful unknown gem: Spectra's No Secrets, American Genesis-style prog from 1979




In talking about Audio Visions I mentioned the enduring allure of Genesis.  And in fact you can't be a prog fan if you don't love them.  Like the Beatles with pop-rock, they just hit the perfect sweet spot in the human mind dedicated to the pleasure to be found in this form of music, and they hit it again and again, like the rats that are given intracranial electrode stimulation in the pleasure center of the limbic system and keep pressing the lever over and over again, thousands of times a minute...

Anyways, enjoy it.
