Phil Collins Flac

Phil Collins' status as one of the most successful pop and adult contemporary singers of the '80s and beyond was probably as much a surprise to him as it was to many others. Balding and diminutive, the Genesis drummer-turned-vocalist was almost 30 years old when his first solo single, "In the Air Tonight," became a number two hit in his native U.K. (the song was a Top 20 hit in the U.S.). Between 1984 and 1990, Collins had a string of 13 straight U.S. Top Ten hits. Long before any of that happened, however, Collins was a child actor/singer who appeared as the Artful Dodger in the London production of Oliver! in 1964. (He also has a cameo in A Hard Day's Night, among other films.)

Newly remastered in 2015. "Face Value" is Phil Collins’ exhilarating debut solo album. The seminal recording reached the Top Ten in several countries and went Platinum in Argentina, Austria, France, Switzerland, the U.K. and the United States. Collins’ distinctive vocals led hits including “I Missed Again” and “In The Air Tonight” straight into the Billboard Top Ten. Absolutely vital.

Newly remastered in 2016, "Hello, I Must Be Going!" is Phil Collins' second studio album. Released on November 1, 1982, this album brought Collins his first Brit Award (British Male Artist) in 1983. The album had eight singles: "Thru These Walls"; "You Can't Hurry Love"; "I Don't Care Anymore"; "Don't Let Him Steal Your Heart Away"; "Why Can't It Wait 'Til Morning"; "I Cannot Believe It's True"; "It Don't Matter to Me"; and "Like China". "I Don't Care Anymore" earned Collins a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Vocal Performance, Male in 1984.

By contrast, the album's biggest hit was Collins' upbeat interpretation of The Supremes' "You Can't Hurry Love," which became his first solo #1 single. Hello, I Must Be Going! itself peaked at #2, and Collins would soon earn his first Grammy® and Brit Award nominations.

After the massive success of his 1981 album "Face Value", Phil Collins didn't take a much of a break. Genesis released "Abacab" six months later, then headed out on a long tour. When they got back, Collins jumped right into recording his second solo album, 1982's "Hello, I Must Be Going!" The album wasn't a huge departure from the formula established on "Face Value", built as it was on introspective, gut-spilling ballads, horn-driven R&B jams, arty rockers, and dramatic breakup songs.

"No Jacket Required" is the third solo studio album by English singer-songwriter Phil Collins, the lead vocalist and drummer for the rock band Genesis. It features guest backing vocalists, including Helen Terry, Peter Gabriel and Sting. On release, the album was received favourably by the majority of music critics, although opinions have become more negative in subsequent decades and it has rarely been featured in "Best Albums of the 1980s" lists since. It won three Grammy Awards including for Album of the Year in 1986.

"Face Value" is the debut solo studio album by English drummer, singer-songwriter and Genesis lead singer Phil Collins. After his first wife filed for divorce in 1979, Collins began to write songs during a break in activity from Genesis with much of the material concerning his personal life. The album was recorded from mid-1980 to early 1981 with Collins and Hugh Padgham as producers. Additional musicians include the Phenix Horns, Alphonso Johnson, and Eric Clapton.
