Yup: they had been high when recording this "amazing music".. !

Which of course discounts all of the countless other actually good songs that have been made under the influence of drugs. I don't know much about the drug habits of prog bands, but I imagine that for the guy in Genesis to dress up like a flower on stage, substance assistance was probably part of his creative process.
