Total Time: 54:23 Notes: A Curious Feeling is the debut solo album from Genesis keyboardist Tony Banks. It was released in 1979 on Charisma Records. The album is loosely based on the book Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes. The instrumental piece "From the Undertow" was used in the 1978 British movie The Shout, for which Banks, with Mike Rutherford, composed the incidental music. No soundtrack of the movie is available. The piece was originally intended to be the intro to "Undertow" from the Genesis album ...And Then There Were Three... (hence the title), but it was omitted from the song. The cover design is by Hothouse, and the cover painting is Wuluwait - Boatman of the Dead by Australian artist Ainslie Roberts. The album was recorded at ABBA's Polar Music Studios during a brief Genesis hiatus.

The album has never been released in the USA. The album is called Strictly Inc instead of Strictly Incognito because there is already a band in the UK named Incognito.)

The album features a 17 minute opus called 'An Island in the Darkness' considered to be among Tony's best solo pieces.

Zibbik, I don't know if you're still reading this, but thanks. I love Genesis, but really haven't followed Banks and Hackett. This is perfect, quality is great (well for the part I've listened to anyway) and the list appears to be complete.
Nice work, Thanks!
