One of the things I love about prog is that there’s very often an interesting story lurking behind a song.
Classic Genesis track The Battle Of Epping Forest is no exception to this, and I would imagine most Genesis fans have some idea of its origins, but Rob Webb has delved a little deeper to uncover more of the history.
Well worth a read.
Progarchy 
This song is a masterpiece, the lyrics are sublime and accompanied by rock music at its best. Will we ever hear such an imaginative story again?
Genesis are supreme.
‘All they can see is the morning goo’.That line will never be bettered.
No longer featured in the Genesis repertoire, but will never be forgotten.
Thank you Genesis.
