4 stars Duke! Just like "...And the There were Three...", Duke is wrongly accused of being a sell- out album. It's ironic that the album's biggest hit was named "Misunderstanding" because that's exactly what the album is. Again, I advise you critics of this album to just forget about the "golden days" of "Foxtrot" and "Lamb"... and just listen to the album.

For me, the highlights are "Behind the Lines", "Duchess", "Man of our Times" ,"Heathaze", "Turn it on Again", and of course, "Duke's Travel's". "Duke's Travel's" is the real gem here. This is the most progressive track on the album too. Tony's amazing as usual. He didn't really dominate this album as a composer like he had been. Phil's influence came through a lot more here. Don't pass this one up though. It is great.

White Shadow | 4/5 |
