Phil Collins Recreates All His Original Album Covers With His Older Self For The 2016 Reissues
Against all odds, English singer, songwriter, and musician Phil Collins has decided to reissue extended and remastered editions of all his solo albums as part of his “Take A Look At Me Now” retrospective. But before you say that this is just another day in paradise, you should know that it’s not just the music that’s been remastered: Collins has reshot each album cover, too. Check out the covers below, and see if you can spot the new ones!
“I’ve always been quite proud of my demos and have often made them available as B-sides, but with a few exceptions, I have avoided including those on these collections,” Collins explained in a press release. “Instead, I’ve focused on how nicely the songs developed when played on stage, rather than showing how they originated.”

Well done Phil for not resorting to Botox and growing old gracefully. This is pretty brave in a way, almost like facing his own mortality...
Note in his eyes as an older creative, you see experience, wisdom and even a silent roar - as if to say "I now know who you are life - and you will not sway me to any path I do not decide to take on my own"....
Or maybe he's just the same guy but a little older.

Don't listen to 'em, Desiree! I was 12 when I went to my first concert: the We Can't Dance Genesis tour and I've been loving Phil ever since. Caught a ton of flack from my friends, too.
