his debut album is a must listen only. 

Listen to the rest if you are curious. 

I haven't listened to his last three albums though, classical compositions I believe, nor do I plan to anytime soon. 
Tony Banks' classical compositions are a must-listen too, but only if you like classical compositions. Smile

If I want to listen to classical compositions, i go elsewhere. 
That's your prerogative. Wink

There's a song for every occasion, although I prefer the Bobby Brown version of "My Prerogative" Smile

A Curious Feeling: Some excellent moments musically, but the lyrical subject matter was far too depressing. I no longer own this album.
 
The Fugitive: A 5-star masterpiece - love it, love it, love it!
 
Soundtracks: Really good, but somewhat monochromatic in a mid-1980's way.
 
Bankstatement: Above average, but a few clinkers. Also not happy with the track sequencing.
 
Still: Below average - a few interesting moments.
 
Seven: Works well as a suite, but could have used a little editing.

Maybe I should give The Fugitive another listen, seeing as I only gave the album a modest 3-star rating after listening to it twice, although I'm more often accused of overrating albums. Wink

It's a dubious honour to be the first to post a Britney Spears video on ProgArchives, and who would have guessed she'd turn up on a Tony Banks tribute thread. Wink

There's also an 8-disc Tony Banks box set available, titled "Banks Vaults 1979-1995". You'd probably need to visit the bank to buy that one though as it's about £65 or $100.

Listening for the first time A Curious Feeling and i'm surprised.
It's a better album than "...and then there were three", at least as a first impression.

There's an old proverb:- A Tony Banks album in the hand is worth three 1980's Genesis albums in the bush, or something like that. Smile

Banks worked with Wang Chung? Those has beens? Did enjoy their Fire In The Twilight though. To Live and Die in L.A. was an interesting soundtrack album also. But Banks with Wang Chung? What next, Hackett with Air Supply?

A rare video of Tony Banks on lead vocals from The Fugitive album. Look out for the funny moment when Tony's keyboard nearly topples off its stand and he catches it just in time. Smile

This is Love

A Curious Feeling, Smallcreep's Day, Spectral Mornings: The three of them belong together in my book.

Soundtracks has always been my favorite. It finally got a remaster after being OOP for decades.

I like The Fugitive, too. It has a couple cool instrumentals.

Bankstatement  was not good.
