A Curious Feeling

Image

Description
Esoteric Recordings are proud to announce the release of a Deluxe two disc edition of the album "A Curious Feeling” by GENESIS founder member and keyboard player TONY BANKS. This classic album, inspired by the novel "Flowers for Algernon” by Daniel Keyes, was first released in October 1979 by Charisma Records. Recorded at Polar Studios in Stockholm, whilst Genesis were on a brief hiatus following the "And Then There Were Three” tour, this majestic work featured contributions from drummer CHESTER THOMPSON (a member of GENESIS for concert appearances) and vocalist KIM BEACON.

Stylistically the album is equal to anything Banks composed for GENESIS and includes the instrumental ‘The Waters of Lethe’ and the song ‘For a While’ (also released as a single) among its highlights. Significantly, this new edition of "A Curious Feeling” has been remixed from the original master tapes by Nick Davis (who also remixed the entire GENESIS catalogue in 2007) and Tony Banks, resulting in a more dynamic sounding album. This Deluxe CD & DVD release includes a 5.1 SURROUND SOUND MIX of "A Curious Feeling” and the 96 kHz / 24-bit Stereo Mix of the album, along with the rare promotional videos of ‘For a While’ and ‘The Waters of Lethe’.
The booklet features notes by Tony Banks and rare studio photographs.

Tracklist
1. From The Undertow
2. Lucky Me
3. The Lie
4. After The Lie
5. A Curious Feeling
6. Forever Morning
7. You
8. Somebody Else's Dream
9. The Waters Of Lethe
10. For A While
11. In The Dark

The Fugitive

Description
Esoteric Recordings are pleased to announce the release of a Deluxe two disc edition of the album "The Fugitive” by GENESIS founder member and keyboard player TONY BANKS. This classic album was first released in June 1983 by Charisma Records and four months prior to the release of the album "Genesis” and began life as a series of home demos and was completed at Genesis’ The Farm studio. "The Fugitive” featured contributions from Daryl Stuermer on guitars, Mo Foster on bass and drummers Steve Gadd, Tony Beard and Andy Duncan and for the first time Tony Banks sang lead vocals on all of the songs.

"The Fugitive” spawned the singles ‘This is Love’ and ‘And The Wheels Keep Turning’ and is fine collection of well-crafted songs and instrumentals. Significantly, this new edition of "The Fugitive” has been remixed from the original master tapes by Nick Davis and Tony Banks and this Deluxe edition release includes a DVD with a 5.1 SURROUND SOUND MIX and a 96 kHz / 24-bit Stereo Mix of the album, along with the rare promotional video of "This is Love”. This definitive edition of "The Fugitive” is packaged in a hard-back book style with illustrated booklet and note from Tony Banks.

Well, I bit on A Curious Feeling even though I have the remaster from 2009.

If anyone wants to buy it from me, send a PM. It has a DVD of the album in 5.1 but it's PAL.
