By 85 quite a few British acts also seemed to want to get a bigger and more streamlined production sound to appeal to mainstream American radio even more. Often I don't think this worked out too well, OMD's later music for instance.

I do prefer the Prog Genesis days but I do like parts of their pop era as well.
