In this case the existing parts of the Compendium will be updated, just like the Gabriel Compendium
Of course, I have no doubt!
What I meant with my previous comment was that sooner or later there will be a release of new stuff.
I think that something will turn out before the end of the decade.
Clive Collins, Phil's Brother and a Prestigious Cartoonist.
Oddily enough, it was in April 2022- did anybody knew it? Not only that, I found out he had passed away randomly last month- almost 3 years later. And this is quite strange, because he was relatively known in England, more than famous enough to be featured in the obituary section.
Regarding his career, Clive Collins (1942-2022) was a successful cartoonist and caricaturist. Even if you did not know his name, you must have seen his drawings (my Mom had a poster of one of his). He was the editorial cartoonist of several titles at Fleet Street like The Sun, Evening Standard, People and Daily Mirror apart from being a permanent contributor to Punch and Playboy. He was UK Cartoonist of the Year three times.
A recurrent leitmotiv of his gags were Goldilocks' Three Bears. He also drew the comic featured in his brother's 'In the Air Tonight' single.

Steve Harley has died aged 73. [...] I've always really liked that song and associate it with my parents as being music of their vintage. Rip.
He was wonderful. He struck me as a truly warm human being and the most perfect end to any festival I have ever been to . He gave a wonderfully warm and emotional experience at a time when we had been through the toughest times and lost loved ones and now we could see the light at the end of the tunnel , it was still scary but we were mixing with people again. It was one of those rare moments when I had no real expectations of performance and was totally knocked out. It was a rare and special moment. Myself and my wife promised ourselves to see him again, unfortunately we never did. I don't often feel that emotional at the passing of people I never met however Steve Harley due to the time I spent watching him in that field at that time is one of them.
A few weeks ago was the anniversary of Steve Harley's death.
Recently I found a Record Mirror review on one of his mid-1980s comeback singles, it says "Harley is now nearly as bald as Phil Collins" 
.
Whatever...Another Phil Collins-bashing piece of writing.
The odd thing was that musically the article was favourable towards Steve Harley.
My favorite Genesis B-Side!!
15!
The same for me!
Rather sad final (?) chapter - tough to think that it’s twenty years plus since we’ve seen any original material from him (bar one song from a film soundtrack). [...] What a shame that such a huge talent has checked out to such an extent.
Sadly, it's now done and I do not have much hope that more stuff from Phil is to come ...
Nevertheless, I wouldn't say this is the end of Collins' discography
His vaults are full of album-worth original material that will be released sooner or later.
I don't think there will be a freshly-recorded album, but I think there will be more than one album with previously unheard original stuff.
Without forgetting that in the mid-2010s, PC told that he had recorded a whole 3rd divorce album with a dark mood.
Rather sad final (?) chapter - [...] I wish him every happiness but it’s a sad story
Alas, 'tis true!
Thank you for this last part, and the compendium in general. Really read it with joy.
Hear, hear!
Hearing those [Genesis] singles on the radio or at store or restaurant still put a smile on my face
The same for me!
The most likely explanation for "Father To Son" and "Wake Up Call" is that they were shot at the same sessions as the cover photography.
Isn't it that another way to evoke the cover?
Dance into the Light was quite the aesthetic departure, though he returned to it with Testify.
Hear, hear!
Incidental, but the post-solo shot of Phil in the In Too Deep video always reminds me of Must Be Going.

thewatcher 👆I Wish makes a point others have made about similarities between between Lynch and Potter. I dispute DP had a HUGE influence on DL, but certainly Lynch was an admirer and if you don't already know Potter's work and feel like exploring it, I'd strongly advise against reading Blackeyes. [...] Very poor indicator[...] of how superb his work could be. [...] He didn't write many novels and they weren't a good representation of his talent.
I never said at all that I had discovered some parallels between Potter and Lynch.
It is a not widely-known fact, but it has been commented on for quite time by some scholars of English Literature and Film Studies.
I don't see why I couldn't vindicate Potter's talent.
Potter's influence was acknowledged by Mark Frost, not by Lynch.
And why against reading Blackeyes or the rest of Potter's novels?
The fact you did not like any of them is no reason to discourage its reading by another reader.
Blackeyes. It's not very good, and his own tv adaptation of it is even worse (as he himself admitted).
I doubt it. He considered it his pet project. Moreover, he was quite defensive of the Blackeyes series in the above-mentioned interview.
Why?
For the very simple reason that Potter had a huge influence on Lynch's work.
The fiction of novelist and screenwriter Dennis Potter is considered the prototype of the Metaphysical Detective Novel.
Potter's works showed quite of the characteristics latter taken by that of Lynch: fragmented plots, 1950s looks, broken homes, very dark themes and a bold exploration of violent sex and death.
Probably the influence of Potter is the strongest in Twin Peaks, showing similarities with Blackeyes (first published as a novel in 1987 before becoming a series directed by Potter himself in 1989).
There are also remarkable parallelisms between Potter's posthumous Karaoke and Mulholland Drive.
Also of interest is Secret Friends (1991), a Potter-directed film adaptation of his own novel with the same title from 1986.
6/ with, not on, That mother tongue letting you down again!
All native English-speakers know that disagreeing on something is correct.
Being English my mother tongue I wrote 'disagreed on'.
In English one can either dis/agree on something or dis/agree with something, meanwhile one can dis/agree with somebody.
And all this getting-off the topic is hereby closed.
If someone wants to say something unrelated with videos reenacting album covers (of PC or even other singers), use another thread.
Come all ye bold Canadians,
I'd have you lend an ear
Unto a short ditty
Which will your spirits cheer,
Concerning an engagement
We had at Detroit town,
The pride of those Yankee boys
So bravely we took down.
The Yankees did invade us,
To kill and to destroy,
And to distress our country,
Our peace for to annoy,
Our countrymen were filled
With sorrow, grief and woe,
To think that they should fall
By such an unnatural foe.
Come all ye bold Canadians,
Enlisted in the cause,
To defend your country,
And to maintain your laws;
Being all united,
This is the song we'll sing:
Success onto Great Britain
And God save the King.
I have learnt some good news.

...I edit my posts several times, often.
But that's cos I'm very wordy and I try to trim down what I've wrote. I'm also a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to phrasing and spelling etc.
[...]
HAHAHA See?!! I couldn't even resist editing THIS one!!
Exactly what happens to me.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MR COLLINS!!!!
May you have all the best and a well-deserved happiness for your 74th birthday, Phil!
And I hope you'll earn many more years among us.
For he's a jolly good fellow,
For he's a jolly good fellow,
For he's a jolly good fellow,
...He's a man of our times
And so say all of us!
And YET, you constantly edit your posts...
Unlike you, I'm a native English-speaker.
I constantly re-edit my posts for several reasons:

Do I think you might be a Russian misinformation agent practicing his art before being let loose on social media? As you can see, the thought has crossed my mind.
НЕТ!
И выучи Английский хоть раз в жизни, кстати.
