Critics and fans often overlook Genesis’ second LP, 1970’s Trespass, mainly because it predates the arrival of Collins and Hackett. Understandable, at least to an extent: This is a folkier, less explosive band than emerged on Nursery Cryme, and the weakest spots here (“Dusk”) drift by sleepily in 12-string fogs. But Trespass, much more than its acclaimed sequel, rewards patient listening. Genesis were never more soulful than earthy epic “Looking For Someone,” and the sweetly melodic climb of “Stagnation” is folk-prog in its most potent form. Founding member Anthony Phillips left Genesis soon after the album’s release, primarily due to crippling stage fright, but his influence is so pivotal here it echoed throughout the band’s entire ’70s output.
