Abacab.

My first Genesis album, always noticed how "flat" it sounded. As soon as "Abacab" kicks up and those fierce re-verbed drums are SO powerful in the mix. Genesis has always attracted me by the drumming of Phil Collins, and they're so perfectly mixed in now. Not to mention, it seems to me like the most "balanced" mix. I'm biased as it was my first Genesis album, yet "Trick" remains my favorite, so I maybe I shouldn't worry about bias anyway

Duke sounds better than the original, but the guitars seem a little "behind" in the mix. I used to love hearing the guitar kick in after the "You know you're on your way out, it's just a matter of time" lyric. With the new mix, it's kinda difficult to hear. Hence why it remains my least favorite of the mixes.
