And if you get suckered into purchasing the album, all you get is an extended mix of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up"
Should be "More April Fool Me", I guess it fooled so many because it doesn't seem inherently really funny. Studio Album, released in 2023 Songs / Tracks Listing 1. Dancing with the Moonlit Knight (8:04) 2. I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe) (4:08) 3. Firth of Fifth (9:38) 4. More Fool Me (3:10) 5. The Battle of Epping Forest (11:46) 6. After the Ordeal (4:16) 7. The Cinema Show (11:06) 8. Aisle of Plenty (1:32) Total Time 53:40 Line-up / Musicians - Tony Banks / keyboards, 12-string guitar With: - Nik Kershaw / vocals (3,4,7) - Czech National Symphony Orchestra / instruments (no drums) Releases information Label: Naxos Format: Vinyl, CD, Digital September 8, 2023 all tracks but (3,4,7) are purely instrumental recordings ---------------------------------------- Will remove.

That's kind of a lame April fool's joke. Imo, a better one would be the announcement of Genesis reuniting with PG and SH and going on the road to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the album.

It's so unfunny that I was not sure that it is a prank, and thought it could be reinstated later if it proved genuine. But then I guess it would work better if it seems believable if one doesn't want people to catch on. Like instead of the label being the classical Naxos, it could have been Nachos. And instead of the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, it could have been the Tijuana Brass Band with Cheech and Chong on vocals... "Smoking on the Bonghit Night", "I Know What I like in Your Rollies" That wouldn't fool many and likely wouldn't have found its way into the lofty halls of ProgArchives as it would so easily have been spotted as fake news. I blame the Dems.
