Do you prefer Phil Collins w/Genesis or as a solo artist?


Me since I'm more of a rock music fan I prefer Phil Collins with Genesis, I do like some of his solo hits though.

I'm not a fan of his solo work. It's not due to a lack of talent. It due to the fact that it was overplayed on the radio, in supermarkets, and in social gatherings like roller rinks.

If we ignore the Calling All Stations album (recorded without Phil), Genesis was good to the end.

Phil's last decent solo album was Both Sides (1993).

I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums...
