| The Underlying 'Voice' of Genesis |

Tony Banks is one of the founding members of Genesis and has often said that early on he could have been the guitar player, bass player but only ended up as Keyboardist. As a result he plays what is the underlying sound that makes Genesis one of the great progressives of the 70s and stand out sound they had of the 80s.
However, little know he did some solo albums. In 1979, he released A Curious Feeling; full of the longer instruments and more complex vocals of the 70s Genesis era. His next attempt is The Fugitive - more pop in sound. While Tony does not consider his voice strong enough for vocals, he did a wonderful job on his own songs. Darryl Stuermer of Genesis Live plays guitar on this album for him. Sadly, Tony has never had any real critical success but his fans are very fond of his albums.
For this album, I am most fond of This is Love, At the edge of Night and Moving Under but all the songs are worth a listen!
