Going Back (Deluxe Version) – Phil CollinsView More By Phil Collins Our ReviewPhil Collins hired three of the surviving Funk Brothers to recreate the sound of old Motown in a studio in Switzerland. Collins has always loved Motown — he had a hit in 1981 with the Supremes’ “You Can’t Hurry Love” — and the 18 tracks on the basic album and 26 on the iTunes Deluxe Version are all done in complete homage to the sound that bedazzled Collins’ youth. The Deluxe Version includes many of Collins’ best efforts. “You Really Got a Hold On Me,” “Dancing In the Streets,” “You Keep Me Hangin’ On” and “Standing In the Shadows of Love” are all indestructible, timeless tunes. Collins doesn’t just mine Motown’s biggest hits, but works through “Girl (Why You Wanna Make Me Blue),” “In My Lonely Room” and “Never Dreamed You’d Leave In Summer” with the same passion. He’ll never be Levi Stubbs or Smokey Robinson, but he also doesn’t sound much like the guy whose hits include “Against All Odds,” “Misunderstanding” and “That’s All.” Fans will surely be intrigued.. Customer ReviewsWhat happened? (1 star)What happened to the Phil Collins of "Face Value" or even early Genesis or Brand X. The man has more music in his little finger than most but decides after all this time to do a cover album of old Motown music? C'mon Phil, where's the creativity?

Honestly, I very much dislike most of his music including his work with Genesis. No offense intended, just not my cup of tea, if you will. There's a handfull of songs I've enjoyed ("You Know What I Mean" from FACE VALUE, especially) and I've bought a few singles here and there, so I approached this record with the perspective of checking just how awful an idea this was goi BiographyBorn: January 30, 1951 in Chiswick, London, EnglandGenre: Pop Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s Phil Collins' ascent to the status of one of the most successful pop and adult contemporary singers of the '80s and beyond was probably as much of a surprise to him as it was to many others. Balding and diminutive, Collins was almost 30 years old when his first solo single, "In the Air Tonight," became a number two hit in his native U.K. (the...
