Got my copy yesterday. It's an enjoyable album, but I guess I won't play it for long and I am looking forward to hearing his next rock album.

Sounds interesting. Hope it will be available to stream online as well.

At the moment it's Lamb, Duke and We can't dance, but that changes from time to time.
Has been W&W, Genesis and Foxtrot late last year ... I really find great stuff on nearly all of their albums
-
You Might Recall is of course quite popular and most liked here for that reason obviously, but I always thought Do The Neurotic is also very strong? So far only #5 in our poll ...
haven't picked that (DTN)
On the shoreline is my favorite, then You might recall
I always liked Paperlate and Feeding the fire
then Anything now.
Also like the 2007 mix of Pigeons, so I included that as well
-
oh oh oh .... stunning teaser, I am REALLY looking forward to seeing this!
About the additional singers - is that really a problem? Pink Floyd did that for years and I can't see a reason why it shouldn't happen here. In fact, stuff like Duchess might benefit a lot from that. Remember that Phil also did all the backing vocals and harmony vocals on the albums.

I saw them live a couple of times, starting with the Invisible touch tour (and also the CAS tour)
I have seen Phil solo a lot more, though.
memorable shows were Southampton 1992 and Dortmund 1998, then of course Rome in 2007

Only for collectors....
I don't mind the new cover image, but I'd prefer a proper boxset with outtakes, 5.1 mix etc
-
Probably Neil Young. And Status Quo...
-
ok. means he will sing and others (anywhere) will play the instruments? Sounds like an ambitious thing to do. Hope it will be available to watch afterwards
-
oh ... wow. That's ... erm ... loud
it's not really my cup of tea but nice to see him doing different stuff!
-
yet another one on the list of musicians who don't want Trump to use songs...
-
I don't make plans at the moment. We'll see what happens, so let's discuss that early next year ...
-
erm - no!
More Fool Me is a nice interlude on that record. Quite often tracks like this make an album special.
-
We can't dance for me ...
it was a great time in the early nineties, discovering many many bands and this album is still very important for me. And it still sounds fresh!
-
Wonderful album! There are some of the best tracks Roachford has done in years on Twice in a lifetime.
My favorites: High on love., love remedy, Gonna be the one, So long
-
Well, well...
the album has its moments, but as a whole it seems to lack something. I didn't expect anything like Dimensionaut, but probably something more ... "new"?
So real is a great track, though!
-
I like Phil's drumming with Brand X. Quite expensive, this set. Will it also be available as a digital set?
-
Well, well
Phil’s In The Air Tonight got some sort of sale boost caused by YouTube ... look here

Following the discussion in the Collins album poll thread here,
I was wondering what you think about his track We Fly So Close?
I remember that I was a bit surprised when I first heard it. It wa slong, very intense and had this strange combination of acoustic and electric guitars (playd on keyboards?) and the drum machine.
So what do you think? Good, bad? Too long? mood?

We Fly So Close may indeed be one of his most underrated tracks, such as Both Sides as an album. When the album came out many years ago, I was in a really strange mood. My frist longer relationship didn't work anymore and I wasn't too pleased with my job situation either. Some family issues on top and I found myself in a strange mixture of frustration, lack of hope and looking for the right way. Both Sides had this special "down" feeling and it quickly reached my emotions. I will always like this album, but I would never say it's his "best" record. It may be his most important record for me.
