There are a few decent songs on Manifesto imo, like Dance Away, Still Falls the Rain and Spin Me Round. But generally most of the album comes out as mid tempo disco-tinged pop/rock, which can come out quite nicely (Dance Away), quite average (My Little Girl) or downright ****e (Angel Eyes, Cry Cry Cry).

As for Flesh & Blood it is a much more consistent effort with less of that disco feel and more of the refined synth soundscapes that would eventually lead to Avalon. Whilst it isn't quite as diverse as the early albums it is much more professional and elegant, as well as providing Bryan a chance to use his moody croon to best effect.
