Genesis was their attempt to come back after Abacab (yeah I know you love it but it was the beginning of their slide into pure pop) and as such featured some more proggy songs but again mostly it was charty stuff like "Illegal alien" and "That's all". Duke was their last concept album and gave them top ten hits too, but I prefer it. If you think Tony was off his game, listen to the instrumentals "Duke's Travels/End" and the intro to "Behind the lines", "Alone tonight" and "Heathaze" to name a few. Collins was also a lot less annoying on Duke, which makes it for certain to me anyway their last great album.
