This is a series of blog posts about the album, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, by Genesis (released in 1974).  They are published on Progarchy.  Many thanks to Brad Birzer and my other friends there for the opportunity and the freedom to pursue this project!

I’ve added links at the end of each of the posts, so you can proceed through them in order if you’d like, rather than bouncing back here.
