The four horsemen was the first hint I found when I opened the Wiki article. The Duke hint worked nicely on a number of levels, but what made me sure I had the right man was Valentino’s syndrome.

I have a new one in mind, but I haven’t written down any hints yet. I’ll be away most of the day, so I don’t think I will have the time until tomorrow.

Well done again! But I think I have to explain some hints: Duke hinted at the Duke of Chartres from the film Monsieur Beaucaire and Doris Duke. I thought of the Duce as well. Revelation 6 is the chapter in the Bible in which the Four Horsemen appear.

I had to be careful to choose the hints since most of the ones I first thought of had Valentino on page 1 of Wiki search results.

That was the last Genesis album I bought. There are quite a few good songs on it, but it also showed very clearly the path they were choosing for the next decade.

It doesn’t look like Clement Dukes fits in (you don’t die from Dukes’ disease, and Clement himself isn’t prominent enough to have his own Wiki article).

European?
