DUKE

I believe that some of the people here can't see that most of the Duke songs carry the main elements of Genesis songs, but under a "compressed" form. It may not be the case of the two "pop" songs, and maybe it have not worked properly on the ballads, but the moving emotional aproach of the band on "Please Don't Ask" and "Alone Tonight" make these two of the best songs of the 80's. Collins drumming is just superb, he would never play so great again. Banks uses the piano rather than mellotrons, bringing a lighter touch than in the previous album.
