Although it could have used sharper synth notes and a heated sax segment, this is a good number. Really like the album direction and general theme.
You're dead to me........the Doobies were never THAT great....
Ok, maybe not just yet.the McDonald years are some of the best soft rock besides Steely Dan.
Haha, so true. Sigh.Its a sign your getting middle aged when you preffer the McDonald years.
I love getting high to that album, ha. So mellow.Although it could have used sharper synth notes and a heated sax segment, this is a good number. Really like the album direction and general theme.

This is the same band
I'd argue that actually it was Steve Hackett leaving that really caused Genisis to shift more towards pop rather than Gabriel who went on to have a pretty poppy(although much superior IMHO) career himself.
Some bands/artists have had long carreers while basically sounding more or less the same. Not that they didn't evolve, but they didn't ... change.
Some artists, though, change radically. Like Ulver. And in case of Ulver, they changed from (imo decent, but nothing more) black metal to absolutely GREAT "alternative (synth)pop".
God, I love Ulvers latest album, The Assasination of Julius Caesar. Best album I've heard this year.
So do you have examples of artists changing radically, preferably for the better?
Early Ulver:
Present day Ulver:
