Afterglow
Genesis
“Afterglow” is a straightforward and concise love song, and an important development in the group’s career, as it proved to them they could write short songs that they still liked. In contrast to the amount of time it took Banks to develop “One for the Vine”, he wrote “Afterglow” “just about in the time it took to play it”. A Moog Taurus, a foot-operated analog synthesizer, was used to create a drone effect. It was a staple on Genesis tours for over ten years.
