Description
Phil Collins was a ubiquitous figure in the 1980s music scene. With an astonishing number of top forty singles in the US and eight number one albums in the UK, he dominated the charts during this period. However, his commercial success belies the depth and diversity of his musical output. This book examines Phil Collins' musical career between 1980 and 1990, a decade that saw him release numerous hit singles and albums with various collaborators, including Peter Gabriel, Eric Clapton, and Paul McCartney. With over six hundred live performances in just ten years, Collins was one of the busiest musicians of his era. Through a detailed analysis of Collins' music from this period, Andrew Wild sheds new light on the artist's remarkable career, revealing a decade of magnificent music that has been overshadowed by his later success.
