3 stars I would like to say that Sean Trane's opening of his review Tony, WTF sums up this album and he is quite right in expressing after A Curious Feeling you would expect the next album to improve. But The Fugitive is a totally different kettle of fish and typical 80's synth pop opening up with This Is Love... call it what you will, well I certainly will here, this is more like Howard Jones than Tony bank's. And upon purchasing this album and putting it on my turntable, the imortal words WTF sprang to my mind first of all with a doubt. But after giving it some grace and playing a few times it does get to grow on you a bit, and there is a few good tracks here,and I know Tony's not a singer, but is voice is far from that bad, and compared to a lot of others vocals who have tried the same thing, Steve Howe and Steve Hackett as an example, Tony's voice is a godsend. I gave this album 3 stars and that's because I reviewed it as a pop album. it's a waste of time trying to review it as a prog albums cause it's not. And I did it would not have got a star, it would have got another WTF.
