Description

Their eleventh studio recording, 'Generation 13' saw Saga release a concept album for the first time in their career. Inspired by the book '13 Gen Abort Retry Ignore Fail' by Neill Howe and Bill Strauss, keyboardist Jim Crichton developed the (fictitious) story of young Jeremy, a member of what is known as the 13th Gen - the generation born between 1961 and 1981, identified as the 13th generation in the US since the founding fathers - whose future prospects, according to Strauss/Howe, were full of uncertainties despite the nation's huge wealth, and whose daily life would be marked by violence and chaos. The result was a versatile album featuring haunting rock songs and an ambitioned story full of social criticism. This vinyl edition of the album features the acclaimed 1991 single 'Gotta Love It' as an exclusive bonus track as well as personal liner notes by Jim Crichton.
