The Duke Tour was a 3-month tour orchestrated by the English progressive rock band group Genesis . [1] [2] The tour followed the release of their 1980 album, Duke , which was well received by both critics and fans alike [3] . The tour began in March of 1980 in Paignton, England and ended on June 30th the same year in Saratoga, New York.

It was the band's fourth tour since the departure of singer Peter Gabriel , the second tour since the departure of guitarist Steve Hackett , and the band's second tour featuring the three-man formation of Mike Rutherford , Tony Banks and Phil Collins augmented by session musicians Daryl Stuermer (guitar) and Chester Thompson (drums).

The 103 city tour saw the band begin to play at big stadiums like Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto and Coliseum Arena in Oakland , while still playing at small theatres like Orpheum Theatre in Boston and during their UK leg. The tour overall was generally like by critics, mainly commenting on Collins' and Thompson's drumming preformance as well as Rutherford and Stuermer's guitar playing [4] , with a mixture of fans at the concerts from hardcore fans, to younger fans attracted by the "radio friendly material and videos." [5]

While younger and hardcore fans enjoyed the tour, some disliked how the band not only steered away from a large majority of Gabriel-era songs like The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway , Supper's Ready , and Watcher of the Skies , but also disliked the band's "toning down the theatrics of their stage act" [4] and how they "relied more on the strengths of their music than their special effects." [4]

The history of a rock band

Duke (1980) – Genesis

On 28 March 1980, Duke * was released. On this album, Genesis went back to jamming together instead of bringing in individual songs. Let’s take a look back on the album that produced the instant classic ‘Turn It On Again’.

Phil Collins became a songwriter

Genesis’ tour in 1978 had lasted almost a year and in consequence, Phil Collins’ marriage had fallen apart. Phil asked for a break to save his marriage. Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford agreed and both of them released their first solo records. Going to Canada, where his wife had moved to with their children, Phil Collins tried to save his marriage. He could not and came back to England, sitting alone in his home in Surrey and spending his time writing songs , something he had never done before.

The band started jamming again

In 1979, Genesis came together to write a new album. Tony and Mike came to Phil’s house and were surprised to find that Phil had become a songwriter. They all brought in songs individually into the jam sessions, but more importantly, they went back to just rehearsing and improvising, something they had stopped doing since Peter Gabriel’s departure. The new songs were very strong. They were modern and still typically Genesis.

Turn It On Again

Fans could get a taste when ‘Turn It on Again’ was released as a single in early March 1980. The song became a classic Genesis song. ‘Turn It On Again’ is central to Genesis’ history. It shows how good the three were getting at incorporating complex and challenging musical ideas into pop songs that would be played on the radio. Based on a riff of Mike’s, the song has an odd 13/8 time signature, but listeners do not realize until they start to clap along or tap their toes to it.

The song was played on every tour since its release. It was mostly played as an encore and from 1983 onwards, the band turned it into a medley that incorporated various rock and roll cover songs. They also named a a hit collection after the song ( Turn it on again: The Hits *) and when they announced their reunion tour in 2007 they titled it Turn It on Again – The Tour .*

On an album with outstanding songs, this weird, driving number had a special place. The single reached #8 in the U.K. charts and allowed the group to perform on Top of the Pops in person for the first time. The album itself was called Duke . It was released in late March 1980 and it was the band’s first number one album in the U.K.

‘This is the story of Albert’

There is a story behind the album, the main protagonist being Albert, the character on the album cover. The album opens with ‘Behind The Lines’, a grand musical odyssey that starts with an euphoric instrumental passage and then turns into a soulful song. With an opener like this, Genesis proudly demonstrated who they were in 1980. The trio showed again that they were (and are) the musical core of Genesis. They were the ones who had created the most important passages of ‘Supper’s Ready’, the closing section of ‘The Cinema Show’ and the main bulk of the album The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway .*

‘Misunderstanding’ was a hit in the US

But as mentioned, the three of them did also bring in individual songs on Duke . Phil’s songs were the very personal ‘Please don’t ask’ and ‘Misunderstanding’, which was one of the first songs he had ever written all alone for Genesis. It is a sophisitcated pop song with direct, simple lyrics and a great swinging groove. The band sound like they enjoy the new influence. Funnily enough it was this song that became a Top Twenty hit in the US – a hint at Phil’s solo success in the future.

Tony Banks often named Duke one of his favourite Genesis albums and points out the song ‘Duchess’, which for him combines all the best elements of modern Genesis. It was their first song to feature a drum machine (many more would follow) and the song’s story can be seen similar to the band’s own story. It is one of Tony’s favourite Genesis songs and although it sounds very simple, for him it has as much emotion as ‘Supper’s Ready’.

Phil's surprising attitude during the 1980 Duke tour

• Shipwrecked94
• Apr 1st 2020

I saw in Armando Gallo's book on Genesis concerts several photos of the Duke tour where Phil Collins shows his finger of honor to the audience looking very angry. It surprised me a lot since Phil is generally nice and fun with the audience.

Do you know what song it was and in what context? was it during the finale "I know what i like" if the audience booed Phil's tambourine solo?

Interesting question indeed.

I've heard it was when they were playing their 40 minutes+ programme of Abacab songs and the audience booed. I cannot give a reliable source for this though.

I've seen a couple of different photos of Phil on stage giving the middle finger — and the two I can think of were both taken during the Abacab tour.

I question whether he's genuinely angry in either of them, but then I wasn't there.

I do know Phil, between songs, would interact with some audiences, occasionally engaging in playful banter, and that's why I'm inclined to think he's just playing around.

It's interesting what you said about the 40 minutes Abacab set. But the pictures about what I was asking are from the Duke tour. I think it's during songs because Mike and co are playing, not waiting. The fact that Phil has the shirt open makes me think that it must be towards the end of the concert, after the In the Cage / Afterglow Medley. As Mike plays the double guitar and not a 6 strings strat makes me think of a song from before 1978.

We can therefore deduce that these photos were taken either during the medley "Cage / Afterglow" (as I call myself), or Turn It On Again, or Dance on A Volcano or very probably I Know What I Like (a track where Phil always interacted a lot with the audience).

• Apr 2nd 2020

Is it from The Lady Lies, I wonder? He always encouraged the audience to boo the villain duing that song. There's some great pics from the Duke tour in Armando's book, including one (again from 1980) where Phil has a wooden cut-out of a naked woman standing beside him.

As for the Abacab tour, they were only booed once, in Leiden, and Phil took great offence, offering to take the disgruntled fans outside so he could knock seven shades out of them! Of course, in later years, he turned it around nicely where he went along with the boo-ing of new songs and cheering of old songs (the best example being on the Mama tour where he entered into a pantomime routine with the audience before the old medley).

You had a great idea with The Lady Lies. It could probably be on this song.

At the lyceum we see that Phil lives this song 100% when he sings it, he makes lots of faces, facial expressions and he seems very upset with the villain of the song at certain times. But no finger of honor, maybe he spontaneously made this gesture in some concerts but not in all, it would depend on the investment of the public in the show. (at the Lyceum the public is not very reactive and very receptive and passive haha). I watched the performance of the song at the Lyceum (official DVD released 2011) the lighting coincides with the photos, as well as the fact that Mike surprisingly plays the bass on that « new » song while he normally plays lead guitar in titles after 1976 . Yes I’ve seen the funny picture of the Naked Woman in Gallo’s book, that’s real Collinsian humour haha ! It was to introduce the Lady Lies (unfortunately no Naked Woman poster at the Lyceum, I wonder if they haven't filmed the show where Phil was the wisest unfortunately haha J ).

I agree with you when you say that from the Mama Tour Phil seems more assertive and relaxed on stage because he had then constituted a great repertoire of standards appreciated by the public (Mama, That’s All, Abacab, Home By The See). I would have really liked them to sing Silver Rainbow in 84, in my opinion the best song on the album. I hope a DVD reissue of the legendary cassette of the show of 83 with the hilarious sequence of Illegal alien where it is really the great Phil Collins showman that I like most.

All this begs the question of when your avatar photo was taken. I have seen it before but I can't place the period and I don't want to make a fool of myself by guessing.

This was taken from the Abacab tour, but I have no idea what the story behind it is, whether it's taken during a song (they'd stopped performing The Lady Lies by then) or from some incident with an audience member (doubtful). Maybe someone who saw them on that tour could shed some light...

Funnily eough, Phil didn't like The Lady Lies that much, certainly he found the lyrics a bit of a mouthful, but I do know when he listened back to the version on the Archive Box Set Vol 2, he thought the band were "really cooking" during the instrumental section at the end. Yes, Mike does play bass on that one and I think it's to the benefit of the song - certainly he couldn't have played that solo at the end with the same speed and fluency as Daryl but then Daryl doesn't play the bass parts with the same distinction as Mike.

As for the Mama tour video, it did get a re-release on DVD as part of the big remix project that Nick Davis helmed some years ago. It's a great show!

He does flip double birds during Lady Lies in the Lyceum but it's kind of cut off by the camera, so most of the Duke photos would be from that.

• Apr 4th 2020

Thank you for all your answers. Yes So for the Duke tour's photos it's the lady lies. Thank you very good for this information.

I find it hard to believe he'd have made that gesture during In The Cage or Afterglow.

You can even buy the t-shirt

Quote from Backdrifter ^ I find it hard to believe he'd have made that gesture during In The Cage or Afterglow.

No for me it's clearly I Know What I Like during the tambourine solo

• Apr 6th 2020

Not directly related but I saw them in Rotterdam around '83, I think it was the Invisible Touch tour. Near the end they were playing a medley of non-Genesis songs, when Phil suddenly stopped the whole show. He said "there are some f.... idiots fighting here", indicating near the front of the crowd, and with that they just walked off and that was it. He doesn't suffer fools gladly!

That would've been 1987.

Yes, and that must have been the Turn It On Again medley with all the 60's oldies (and possibly some contemporary hits). There's an upload on youtube, audio only, that documents this. If I'm not mistaken, they had to interrupt this medley for the same reason as well as on the Mama tour as on the Invisible Touch tour, both times it appears the Dutch fans were responsible.

Quote from Schrottrocker If I'm not mistaken, they had to interrupt this medley for the same reason as well as on the Mama tour as on the Invisible Touch tour, both times it appears the Dutch fans were responsible.

There was no Dutch gig on the Mama tour though.

Duke 2024-25 roster: Purdue's Mason Gillis commits to Blue Devils out of transfer portal

Gillis will join duke's top-ranked recruiting class.

Duke landed its second commitment from the transfer portal on Monday in Purdue sharpshooter Mason Gillis. The 6-foot-6 forward played a critical role in the Boilermakers reaching the Final Four earlier this month for the first time since 1980. He could find himself positioned to earn a starting role with the Blue Devils after coming off the bench during the 2023-24 campaign.

The news of Gillis' commitment comes days after Duke landed a pledge from Syracuse forward Maliq Brown.

The Blue Devils have lost seven players to the transfer portal:  Jeremy Roach ,  Mark Mitchell ,  TJ Power ,  Jaylen Blakes ,  Christian Reeves ,  Jaden Schutt , and Stewart. Duke stars  Kyle Filipowski  and  Jared McCain  declared for the 2024  NBA Draft  earlier this month. Both players are in the conversation to be lottery picks this summer.

Year 3 of the Jon Scheyer at  Duke  will look drastically different. The Blue Devils returned four starters ahead of the 2023-24 campaign and reached the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament for the first time in the post-Mike Krzyzewski era. With the top-ranked recruiting class arriving, expectations for the Blue Devils will remain sky-high.

Duke's starting backcourt during the 2024-25 season is shaping up to be a pair of returners in  Tyrese Proctor  and  Caleb Foster . Proctor bypassed the 2023 NBA Draft to return to school for his sophomore season and decided to return for another season to raise his stock ahead of next summer's draft.

Foster was a highly touted recruit in Duke's 2023 recruiting class that ranked No. 2 in the 247Sports rankings behind  Kentucky . With McCain and Roach no longer with the program, the door is open for Foster to take on a larger role ahead of next season.

CBS Sports is tracking the status of the Duke roster and recruiting class in real time. Here's where every current Duke player and commit currently stand.

Incoming transfers

Mason gillis (transfer from purdue).

GP:  39 |  GS:  0 |  PPG: 6.5 |  RPG:  3.9

Gillis was one of the more underrated players in the transfer portal. Gillis could have a chance to start next to Proctor, Foster, Flagg, and Maluach. Gillis ranked as the No. 64 overall player in the CBS Sports Transfer Portal Rankings . Gillis shot 46.8% from distance on 3.2 attempts per night. He will provide valuable shooting for Duke after McCain departed the program for the NBA.

Maliq Brown (Transfer from Syracuse)

GP: 32 |  GS:  18 |  PPG: 9.5  | RPG: 7.2

After spending the last two seasons at Syracuse, Brown entered the transfer portal and committed to Duke shortly after. Brown started 18 games this past season for the Orange and should be a valuable rotation piece this upcoming season. Brown, Gillis and Proctor are currently the only upperclassmen on the Duke roster.

Duke players expected to return

Tyrese proctor .

GP: 32 |  GS:  25 |  PPG:  10.5 | APG: 3.7

Proctor will be the most experienced player on the Duke roster next season (pending any veteran additions via the transfer portal). Proctor had an up-and-down season, which included missing a handful of games due to various injuries. Proctor came off the bench seven times in his 32 total appearances and will play a key role in merging experience with the six first-year players on the roster.

Caleb Foster 

GP: 27 |  GS:  15 |  PPG:  7.7 |  RPG:  2.4

The No. 23 overall player in the 2023 recruiting class showed flashes of his four-star billing last season. Foster was ruled out of the NCAA Tournament due to a stress fracture in his ankle and missed the previous five games with the same injury. Foster is the only player (currently) remaining from Duke's star-studded 2023 recruiting class.

Duke players not expected to return

Jared mccain (declared for nba draft).

GP:  36 |  GS:  36 |  PPG:  14.3 |  RPG:  5.0

McCain was Duke's best 3-point shooter this past season. He finished the season connecting on 41.4% of his shots from distance on 5.8 attempts per game. While McCain could be considered undersized at the combo guard position, he makes up for it with his tenacious rebounding ability. McCain recorded at least five rebounds in 19 of the 36 games he played in. He projects as a lottery/mid-first-round pick this summer.

Kyle Filipowski (Declared for NBA Draft)

GP: 36 |  GS:  36 |  PPG:  16.4 |  RPG:  8.3

Filipowski proved to be a steady presence for Scheyer during his two seasons in Durham. He started all 72 games for the Blue Devils and earned ACC Rookie of the Year as a freshman and second-team  All-American  honors from CBS Sports this past season. Filipowski is another player who projects as a lottery/mid-first-round pick this summer.

Jeremy Roach (In transfer portal)

GP: 35 |  GS:  35 |  PPG:  14.0 | APG: 3.3

Roach spent the first four seasons of his college career with Duke and was a key contributor on Duke's last Final Four team during the 2021-22 season. After averaging a career-high 14 points per game on 42.9% shooting from distance, Roach elected to enter the transfer portal and play his final season elsewhere. There should be plenty of suitors for his services.

Mark Mitchell (Committed to Missouri )

GP: 33 |  GS:  32 |  PPG:  11.6 |  RPG:  6.0

After starting 67 games over the last two seasons with the Blue Devils, the former five-star recruit entered the transfer portal. Mitchell ranked as the No. 6 player in the CBS Sports Transfer Rankings and should help Missouri bounce back from an 0-18 showing in SEC play.

TJ Power (In transfer portal)

GP: 26 |  GS:  0 |  PPG:  2.1 |  RPG:  0.7

The former No. 17 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle appeared in 26 games during his first season with Duke. Power entered the transfer portal earlier this week.

Sean Stewart (In transfer portal)

GP:  33|  GS: 0 |  PPG:  2.6 |  RPG:  3.2

The former No. 22 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle appeared in 33 games during his first season with Duke. He entered the transfer portal on Friday.

Jaylen Blakes (In transfer portal)

GP:  31|  GS:  1 |  PPG:  1.8 |  RPG:  0.8

Blakes spent the first three seasons with Duke and made 31 appearances in consecutive seasons. Blakes ranked as a three-star recruit from the 2021 cycle.

Christian Reeves (In transfer portal)

GP: 3 |  GS:  0 |  PPG:  1.7 |  RPG:  1.7

Reeves spent the first two seasons with Duke and made 16 total appearances. Reeves ranked as a three-star recruit from the 2022 cycle.

Jaden Schutt (In transfer portal)

GP:  0 |  GS:  0 |  PPG:  0 |  RPG:  0

Schutt used a redshirt season after undergoing knee surgery. He averaged 2.1 points in 14 total games as a freshman.

Ryan Young (Out of eligibility)

GP:  36 |  GS: 2 |  PPG: 2.8 |  RPG:  3.4

The former Northwestern transfer is out of eligibility. Young spent the last two seasons with Duke and was a key backup center for the team.

Duke's incoming recruiting class

Duke's 2024 recruiting class is loaded. It all starts with five-star forward Cooper Flagg, who is considered one of the best high school prospects in quite some time. The Blue Devils have six first-year players arriving on campus, which includes four five-stars and five players inside the top 20 of the 247Sports rankings. Five-star center Khaman Maluach, the No. 3 overall player in his class, committed late in the cycle from NBA Academy Africa to give the Blue Devils even more firepower. Flagg and Maluach should start in the frontcourt next to Proctor and Foster.

Here is a look at Duke's incoming recruiting class with 247Sports rankings.

No. 1 Cooper Flagg

Flagg is the best two-way prospect in the country and the top overall high school player in America regardless of class or position. Flagg should fit in right away with the Blue Devils because he is an engaged defender that uses his size to block shots around the rim and he crashes the boards hard on both ends. On offense, Flagg has shown he can be a three-level scorer and has a killer instinct that makes him one of the more intriguing prospects in some time.

No. 3 Khaman Maluach 

The latest commitment from Duke's recruiting class could be in line to start at center this season. The 7-foot-1, 250-pound big man committed to Duke over Kansas , Kentucky, UCLA , and more. Maluach should pair exceptionally well next to Flagg in the frontcourt because they can both do a little bit of everything.

No. 12 Isaiah Evans 

With a spot in the starting lineup open (assuming Proctor, Foster, Flagg, and Maluach are the other starters), Evans could have a chance to be the fifth and final starter. The five-star wing committed to Duke over Florida State , Alabama , Arkansas , Kansas, Memphis , and Tennessee .

No. 17 Kon Knueppel 

The five-star forward should get consideration to start at SF, depending on how Duke elects to fill the remaining spots on the roster. The top-ranked player from the state of Wisconsin committed to Duke over Wisconsin, Alabama, Virginia , and Marquette .

No. 18 Patrick Ngongba ll

Ngongba signed with Duke over UConn , Kansas State , Kentucky, Michigan , and more. The five-star center was sidelined earlier in his high school season after having successful foot surgery in November. He projects as a potential backup to Flagg and Maluach.

No. 51 Darren Harris 

Harris was the first player from the 2024 recruiting cycle to commit to Duke. The 6-foot-6 wing is known for his 3-point shooting. He committed to the Blue Devils over George Mason , Georgetown , Maryland , Virginia Tech , and more.

On today’s date in 1899, Edward Kennedy Ellington was born in Washington, D.C.

The son of a former White House butler, Elllington was born into a comfortable middle-class African American household. After piano lessons from the aptly named Miss Klinkscales, Ellington composed his first original piece, The Soda Fountain Rag . Two important mentors were a local dance band leader, Oliver “Doc” Perry and a high school music teacher named Henry Grant, who introduced Ellington to classical composers like Debussy.

“From both these men I received freely and generously,” Ellington recalled. “I repaid them as I could, by playing piano for Mr. Perry, and by learning all I could from Mr. Grant.”

Always a stylish dresser, Ellington was nicknamed “The Duke” by friends, and while still in his teens, the five-piece dance band he formed was playing in New York City. That ensemble grew to 11 men by 1930 and to an orchestra of 19 by 1946.

The Ellington orchestra was an ensemble of jazz virtuosos, and for them Ellington would compose some 2000 original works, a body of music extensively documented in public and private recordings, and now regarded as one of the most astonishing musical accomplishments of the 20th century.
