early to mid-70s soul is about as elevated a genre era as it gets.

I can't say I'm surprised given what you say every time the RRHOF is brought up.
This is one of their best (Binky: worst) tunes.

Keane always were proud of their no guitars allowed mantra. Makes for soothing beautiful music.
I seem to have stumbled upon a theme on my list, charismatic and talented vocalists matching up with control freak songwriters. Guess its reasonably common
With Keane, Tom Chaplin and his lovely voice was busting to do his own material, but Tim Rice-Oxley was more than dismissive in implying that Chaplin coudnt write a song worthy of a B Side. Chaplin gets frustrated and leaves. Band reunites when Rice-Oxley proven right
Dave Gahan butts heads with Martin Gore in Depeche Mode. Gore got thrust into the songwriter role when Vince Clarke abruptly left and was possessive of the sound he curated. Gahan wanted his songs heard. During a “break” Gahan gets his stuff out. Gore slightly more welcoming of Gahans stuff in future, lets him have a few songs
The fights between Amy Lee and Ben Moody of Evanescence is the stuff of movies. Lee won this battle and Moody left. Material suffered greatly though
Teras for Fears. Roland Orzabal wrote great songs, but lacked confidence as a vocalist. Enter Curt Smith to sing Mad World, Pale Shelter etc, while the more impassioned songs on Suffer the Children like Memories Fade and Ideas as Opiates, show the skill Orzabal had. As Orzabal got more confidence when Shout became a huge hit, Smith got less and less vocal work leading to frustration. Smith couldnt write for **** though. Their dynamic led to animosity and a long term split. Orzabal led essentially solo TFF albums for years, but the Smith led somgs sound totally different with Orzabal singing them and he needs Smiths voice on the poppier numbers.
Oasis is another fun one to talk about in this style too, but their not on my island so **** em. Same with the Clash.

RD 13: "E" - Brian Eno - Baby's On Fire
I almost went a couple songs off this album ..."Cindy Tells Me" or "Needles In The Camel's Eye" - this entire album is so great, really wish he would have continued this path.
yeah, his instrumental, ethereal stuff is interesting - but I'd much rather hear several albums like this one at least mixed in ...

Hopefully Steve Tasker gets back to us with some more picks soon.
An alternative plan is in place should someone not get to 20 picks. Their artists will not be thrown back into the pool

He's been in and out. He will pick I bet. He seems to be employing a "you can't snipe what I don't pick" strategy

Was reminded of this band in the Worldwide dummies countdown. Hadn't thought of them in years and always loved this song.
