Strictly Inc. is the self-titled project album, released by GenesiskeyboardistTony Banks and Wang Chung lead vocalist Jack Hues, in 1995 on Virgin Records. Banks wanted the album release—as the title suggested—with no reference to the band members, but the record company went against his wishes. This was Banks' fifth studio album, his second issued under a band name, his seventh album overall and his most recent pop album to date.
It was released on 11 September 1995 in the UK. The album has never been released in the United States, although it is available for streaming. The album is called Strictly Inc. instead of Strictly Incognito because there was already a band in the UK named Incognito.
Three outtakes from the recording sessions exist: two untitled instrumentals and the song "Back to You", which was released as a B-side and which was co-written by Nik Kershaw.
AllMusic praised "Tony Banks' distinctive, multi-layered keyboard playing", but contended that the album is a glaring failure due to a lack of memorable songs and the ineffectiveness of the combination of Jack Hues's vocals and Banks's music.[2]
