Photogenic Memory

1. Photogenic Memory**+: First single from Chinese Wall album for Philip Bailey. Uptempo and danceable with mostly synthesizers augmented by pungent rhythm guitars. Bailey sings in his natural tenor voice exhibiting how strong of a vocalist he is. The vocoder voice in the background is none other than album producer Phil Collins who would make his precense known better, later in the album. The only drawback on Photogenic Memory is the lack of a hook, apparently this scared off radio stations, leaving Photogenic Memory an un-memorable one.
