Yes, getting amazing songs with those type of Sax being played(s/o to Don Myrick) in the ending/middle have been kinda difficult. I'd appreciate as many as possible, thanks.
The saxophone in that ending is/was/has always been/will forever be sensational. It's the best I've ever heard in a song.
Hey everyone, I was just wondering which Phil solo record I should start with.
I'm a big fan of his era of genesis, and my favourite records from his era with the band are Duke, Invisible Touch and We Can't Dance.
I do really enjoy these few tracks, and know roughly what type of sound each of his LP has.
My favourites are:
In the Air Tonight, I Missed Again, Another Day in Paradise, It's In Your Eyes, Wake Up Call
The Take A Look At Me Now campaign turned out to be somewhat underwhelming, for me at least. The quality of the "extras" on each disc was variable and the albums didn't sound any different to the original mixes...with one exception.
...But Seriously. It was totally brickwalled for some reason, which means that everything just sounds loud and all sense of subtlety and dynamics have been lost. I've looked for alternative versions of the original mix - the German pressing seems to be very popular with audiophiles - but it seems a little quiet for my tastes. And Steve Hoffman's audio fidelity remix is no great shakes either.
I really hope that another release of this album is on the horizon, one that isn't quite s heavy-handed with the compression. Maybe now that everyone is jumping on the Dolby Atmos bandwagon we can get a multi-channel remix...
I wish I could travel back in time to experience this masterpiece in real time. One of my favorite tracks. And actually, the remix with Bone Thugs and Harmony is good too!
A new Phil Collins interview (FULL INTERVIEW) with SIRIUSXM’s Eddie Trunk… Possibly recorded on the 5th May '26.
It's always so great to hear Phil even if it's mostly going over old ground.
Just a little observation on a fresh listen that, to me, the trumpet(?) parts of Hamd in Hand sounds very similar to the main melody of Dance Into the Light.
Im aware these songs are 15 years apart but I thought it was interesting. Am I hearing things or does anyone else hear this?
