A 1960s band will finally be releasing an album after its music was discovered by a producer.

This is after The Genesis band member Chris Stokes, now 80 years old, sold his electric piano on eBay, which included some of the band’s old clips from the '60s and '70s.

Now this is not to be confused with the famous rock band Genesis, with Phil Collins and Peter Gabriel.

“If you’re wondering what kind of music, predating Genesis—moody, mid-60s, psychedelic, pop-rock glam, opera fusion... I am in, why not?”
