Collection: Phil Collins Vinyl Records

Phil Collins's solo run from 1981 through the early 1990s sold over 150 million records and produced some of the defining pop songs of the decade. Face Value emerged from the wreckage of his first marriage and reshaped what a soft-rock album could feel like; the gated drum sound of "In the Air Tonight" alone went on to influence the next decade of production.

The records pair confessional songwriting with the technical command of someone who had spent the 1970s drumming in one of the most virtuosic prog bands of the era. Pressed onto vinyl, the production detail — the layered keyboards, the brass arrangements, the famous drum sound — gets the dynamic range it was originally cut for.
