Yet Sledge Hammer was one of Peter Gabriel's favorites. He said he finally achieved the MoTown sound he had been after for years.

Also, Genesis - Genesis is a very good pop rock album.

Thats fine if he likes it. He's entitled to his opinion and me to mine.... I don't care for the song. Much better ones out there.
 
His Genisis career was cool, but too trippy. Every album he made (Foxtrot et all) had a host of great songs, and then a ballady flop like the Battle of Epping Forest. Too much LSD and/or time on his hands. The man liked dressing up like flowers a bit too much.

But then Seconds Out was great! Bot versions, studio w/ PG, and live w/o. One of my first "boxed sets" there.

His later stuff is mixed too. His LATEST stuff is just too high-falootin' and preachy.
 
Yeah, big fan. I like his older albums better, but Story of OVO is still good.
I Have the Touch, Fourteen Black Paintings, Secret World, Steam, and Us, so many greats.
 
Lamb lies down on Broadway was ahead of its time. He did lose his mind and needed to get his shit together which is why he left Genesis...


His solo work had some very good highlights that have been very well represented in this thread.


I have one word that best highlights Phil Collins failure at music.....sususudio....crazy ass thing about that song is it was the #1 song that year billboard.....gd the eighties were just plain weird...
 
Sussudio isn't bad...it's just simple. It's a butt-shaker. Nothing wrong with that, especially if you've spent much of the last decade doing art rock. Not every song has to be about wolves wearing crowns, or evil plants conquering the earth, or druggies in the middle of a desert.
