Genesis still have a credibility problem which at present just trails the present standing of ex-drummer/vocalist Philip Collins. Duke was the record that shed their 'heavy prog' image and found them beginning to loosen up. Collins had grown in confidence following Peter Gabriel's departure and the band immediately became much tighter musically. In addition to the hit singles "Duchess," the buoyant "Turn It On Again" and realism of a situation in "Misunderstanding," there is the painful honesty of "Please Don't Ask." There have been many bigger Genesis albums, but none have anywhere near as much heart.

CMJ (1/5/04, p.6) - Ranked #9 in CMJ's "Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1980".
Mojo (Publisher) (3/01, p.82) - "...The band's first UK Number 1 also marked their first use of a drum machine - the end of their 'classic' period for hardcore fans. Inspired by Collins' love of soul, 'Turn It On Again' has the band exploring funkier fields..." **Super Audio CD (SACD) Hybrid**
This CD will play in standard CD players.
A Super Audio CD player is required to take advantage of the SACD sound technology. Duke Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)  Excellent SACD DTS & Dolby 5.1 surround here.
Hats off to Genesis. It's great to hear Duke in SACD, DTS and Dolby 5.1 surround sound which is what this package offers. Even if you have only dolby 5.1 surround sound on your system you can still hear the entire album in surround sound. Duke never sounded better.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Awesome remaster
this is one that I've been waiting for what seems forever. It's been remixed and remastered,so it may sound different,yet the same! The DVD with this is cool too-love the video for
Behind the Lines and the new interviews are fascinating.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No This is my favorite Genesis album!
I love this cd!!! Duke has never sounded better-it's bright,it has a real punch now...vast improvement over the older remaster. I don't know if some hard-core fans will like the remixing,though. Phil's voice really shines through,which gives the album a different sound. Tony's keyboards have been 'enhanced' a bit(probably for the
surround mix),but I personally like it.
Also,the DVD that comes with this is very cool-I never knew they did a video for "Duchess".Great live stuff on this too.

Duke album
 $22.35  
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
The beautifully remastered version of the Moody Blues's 1970 back-to-basics album (translation: they cut way back on the overdubs) strips away the original aural murk at last, and includes informative liner-note interviews with the band about the recording process. Standout tracks include the classic sort-of protest song "Question" and "It's Up to You," one of singer/guitarist Justin Hayward's most authoritatively wistful riff-rockers.
There is a clear attempt to pare back the lush excesses of their earlier work in favor of a leaner rock sound, as heard on cuts like John Lodge's pell-mell "The Tortoise and the Hare." Still, one of the album's standouts is Ray Thomas's "And the Tide Rushes In," a lovely psychedelic ballad of the sort that moved the Who's Pete Townshend to remark that the Moody Blues' albums were so gorgeously produced that listening ...

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
The Moodies were a prolific lot in the late '60s. This, the post-Denny Laine lineup's fourth album, was the second to be released in 1969. It was the group's most mature, fully realized effort to date, arguably surpassing even the milestone DAYS OF FUTURE PASSED in its elegance and vision. The Moodies were always capable of both songcraft and experimentalism, but this was the first ...

This is a DTS CD, which features DTS 5.1 Surround Sound technology and is playable on a DTS-capable 5.1 Surround Sound system.
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
While the Moodies were never exactly a rocker's delight, SEVENTH SOJOURN, the seventh recording with the post-Denny Laine lineup, is perhaps their most ballad-heavy album. Ironically, the album's biggest hit, which would become one of the group's signature songs, was the uncharacteristically uptempo "I'm Just a Singer in a Rock and Roll Band." Elsewhere, appearances are equally deceiving; interpersonal tensions had developed in the band to the point where there wouldn't be another Moody Blues album for six years, but the album is full of slow, romantic musings, not signs of strife.
As usual, it's Justin Hayward, he of the silky voice ...

Duke songs
$69.15
Digitally remastered by Nick Davis, Geoff Callingham & Chris Blair.
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
When guitarist Steve Hackett left Genesis for a solo career after touring behind 1977's WIND AND WUTHERING, he was the second major defection the group had suffered in as many years. Instead of helplessly disintegrating, the remaining trio circled the wagons and bounced back with the solid AND THEN THERE WERE THREE.
Rather than employ any outside studio musicians to take up the slack, Tony Banks, Phil Collins, and Mike Rutherford instead played every instrument themselves. Resolutely reflective throughout, this 1978 release finds Genesis populating its songs with a broad range of characters. Among the more memorable ones are the fast-talking record exec on "Down and Out" (a song that could be construed as a veiled swipe at the departed Hackett) ...
| | Genesis Trick Of The Tail CD (1976) Bonus DVD; SACD Hybrid; Reissue; Remastered
Duke album
$27.05
TRICK OF THE TAIL was Genesis' first LP after the departure of Peter Gabriel.
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
This was Genesis' first album following the departure of vocalist Peter Gabriel. After ascending the heights of conceptual progressive rock on the preceding THE LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY, Genesis was left between a rock and a hard place, trying to define its identity anew. With the odds against them they put in a fine showing on TRICK OF THE TAIL. The general musical mode is similar to that of LAMB--longish songs with well developed structures and arrangements and a straighter rock feel than the band's early work.
Lyrically, the band didn't attempt to equal Gabriel's conceptual mastery, choosing instead to tackle discrete subjects on each song; "Squonk" is about a mythical beast, "Entangled" centers around an unpleasant hospital stay. Phil Collins, technically a better vocalist than ...

Duke CD music
$69.15
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
Peter Gabriel was such a charismatic frontman and unique singer/lyricist that many assumed Genesis would fold after his departure. WIND & WUTHERING proved that there was much to the group than just Gabriel's talents. Drummer Phil Collins, who'd sung a couple of songs on previous albums, had taken over lead vocal duties on the previous A TRICK OF THE TAIL, with surprisingly successful results. His voice wasn't as edgy as Gabriel's, but was a bit more palatable to mass audiences, and the group's popularity continued to grow. Many of the songs here pick up musically where LAMB and TRICK OF THE TAIL left off, with sharply focused tunes that show off the group's prog-rock chops without getting too bombastic.

Duke songs
$15.59
On Stringy Rugs, the second Cuneiform CD by Dutch avant rockers Blast, the group demonstrates its ability to navigate tricky and complex compositions, in which scored themes and improvised ideas are presented in rapid succession or even simultaneously. Recorded in New York, the Netherlands, and France, the album balances progressive rock, creative improvisation, and even contemporary classical elements in convincing fashion.
Various ensemble configurations perform the CDs ten pieces, which include episodes of often startling intricacy. "Litho 1" and "Litho 2" are short pieces (each just over a minute in length) scored for quartet performing on saxes, guitar, and marimba. At the other extreme is "Communifade," in which austere chamber music builds to orchestral proportions thanks to an eleven-piece aggregation featuring multiple trumpets, trombones, and tubas. "Bouncing" provides a chance for soprano sax to expound on a slow melodic line over stop-and-start rhythms performed on guitar, bass, and drums; horns join the mix after an improvised passage, and the piece concludes with a noise guitar solo that is equal parts Robert Fripp and Arto Lindsay.There ...

It ain't easy being queen. In the late 1990s, Dar Williams emerged as the unchallenged ruler of the folk singer-songwriter roost, and her Cry, Cry, Cry side-project with Richard Shindell and Lucy Kaplansky heightened her profile even further. This all added up to a great deal of expectation surrounding THE GREEN WORLD.
Williams did not shrink from the challenge. For one thing, THE GREEN WORLD is the least "folk"-sounding of all her recordings. The rhythm section of Joe Jackson bassman Graham Maby and former Wings drummer Steve Holley provides an expansive, rock-inflected attack ...
