78. 'Face Value' - Phil Collins (1981(

Long Live Rock 'N' Roll

In the wake of a 1978 Genesis World Tour, Phil Collins found himself alone and without his family - having been left by his then-wife who took their two children to Canada. Amidst the heartache and the uncertainty, Collins wrote and executed one of the most honest and emotional pop albums of the 80s. ‘Face Value’ utilises great production, genre-blending and emotional lyrics to portray Phil Collin’s feelings of the time - and what we got was one of the most introspective and heartfelt pop albums of the 80s that set a lyrical and musical standard for generations to come.
