Product Description
East, Leland Sklar, Cornelius Mims, John Giblin, Freddie Washington (bass); Sheila E. (percussion); Peter Gabriel, Sting, Marva King (background vocals). In the early '80s, Collins took a break from the helm of Genesis to inaugurate a solo career that abandoned his group's art-rock agenda for a mainstream pop approach. In the ensuing years, the king of Nice Guy Pop established himself as one of the world's premier top 40 balladeers, as evidenced by the wall-to-wall hits that make up the balance of this appropriately titled collection. HITS walks the listener through the smooth, well-produced Collins hits that have worked their way into the collective consciousness of radio listeners (even casual ones) over the years. There are majestic power ballads ("I Wish It Would Rain") to light-hearted, infectious pop-funk ("Sussudio") and moody atmospheric pieces ("In the Air Tonight") HITS represents the full range of material this prolific performer has turned out over the course of his wildly successful career. ...See Full Description

| The Hits + This is a fine collection and deserves a 5 star rating, but would have been even better with the following: Long, Long Way To Go, Don't Lose My Number, Inside Out. I am sure there is even more unsung hits, that should have been included. We will have to wait for a more expanded hits collection. By gtsiebert (Palm Springs, CA, USA) |
| Phil Collins "Hits" a homerun "Phil Collins ...Hits" is a delightful collection of his excellent work. Everyone who has heard it in my house has wanted to order their own copy! I highly recommend this CD to anyone who enjoys good music and this stellar performer. By Horn51 (La Crescenta, CA, USA)  |
| Phil Collins at his best The title says it all: "Hits". If you love Phil Collins, THIS is the album to get. By a reviewer (Tacoma, WA)  |
| Phil Collins This CD is so moving and has wonderful songs that you can relax to. Nice songs to dance and some to think about life. By a reviewer (Beeville, TX, USA)  |
| Hits (1998) Some of the songs are boring and cheesy and they almost all have that 80's sound with the over- exaggerated backround sounds and drumbeats. Its kind of boring and it all sounds similar but some of it is good. By keithsilvers (Wausau, WI, USA) |
