Complicated Illusions clip sounding great.

And I think that might be the same record player I have (I’m sure that is much more interesting to me than anyone else).

I did think of late 70's/early 80's Genesis listening to that. (Who I just so happen to like)
Seriously, could have fit on Duke.
This is a complement!

EDIT: And... AND! Distant Colours with more of a pace.

EDIT EDIT: And I've broke the chain of comments with that comment. Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Phil Collins are GODS!

Ugh, dammit, I bloody love that. Bloody ages til September.

I often see phrases like "sounds like Lifeblood" on this forum, and I never hear the similarity, but this time I definitely do. It's still my favourite album, so anything remotely in that vein is fine by me.

I assume that's the track? A link for those of us not in the zuckerverse.
Nice though - kinda lifeblood, much melancholy.

I see James has decided to stick to using his 'Cabaret' manics singing style. Very sad when you consider how good and emotive his work on Even in Exile was.
