Tony Banks, keyboardist of Genesis, has done a number of solo albums which have met with little critical success. Yet many of his songs are well liked by his fans who call themselves 'Banksians'. Tony's keyboards are the underlying sound of Genesis, so if you do like Genesis for reasons other than the lead singers, you will like Tony's music.

My faves on this album include Throwback, Queen of Darkness (SST has this piece in instrumental form as Lorca and the Outlaws: Lorca on the Soundtracks album), That Night, Diamonds aren't so Hard; but i really do enjoy every piece on this album.

In addition to A Curious Feeling, The Fugitive, Bankstatement and Soundtracks; Tony Banks has also done more recent albums: Still and Strictly Inc - both are excellent for the Genesis fan as finds.

On Adagio.fm you will also find Seven. As Tony Banks' roots are somewhat in classical, he did a classically written album with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. It is a lovely Mahler-ish album full of everything I love in Tony Banks' music - and well worth checking out as well.
