Tony Banks is the keyboard player and chief songwriter of the british rock group Genesis, for those who did not know. He is extremely talented, so do not expect the music to be a flaw in the film. He also did the soundtrack to the film "The Wicked Lady". I myself am looking forward to both the movie and soundtrack of "2010". Until next time.... JR

He also did the soundtrack to the film "The Wicked Lady". Actually, Phil Collins and Mike Rutherford are probably doing most of current Genesis songwriting. Tony Banks is part of a dying breed--- flashy progressive rock keyboardists. Banks, however, has never been known to be excessively flashy, nor has he been known to be especially innovative (witness his solo work). He was deathly afraid of using a synthesizer up until only a few years ago, not exactly a useful trait in a keyboardist/composer. I don't really expect much from his 2010 score. -- Those responsible for sacking those people who have just been sacked, have been sacked. Rich Rosen pyuxn!rlr
