The highly acclaimed first solo album by Genesis drummer and singer-songwriter Phil Collins went five times platinum and topped the charts in 1981, the year of its release
Collaborating with the likes of Eric Clapton and the horn section of Earth, Wind & Fire, the result was a superb synthesis of pop, soul, Motown and world music, most notably the smash hit 'In the Air Tonight' with its legendary drum solo
Analogue Productions is reissuing this classic as part of Atlantic Records' 75th anniversary celebrations, an exciting series of 75 gems from music history
