Yeah it's a treadmill. As I say there is what the artists do of their own volition / vision and then there is the social climate that demands that kind of music. You can't blame the musicians for the demand being there and if PC hadn't filled that demand then someone else would have been in like flint - Jess Roden, Frankie Miller, Noel McAlla. The list of potential candidates who came out of the rock-soul end of 70s rock was endless. All of them better looking than Phil too. Can you imagine someone that fugly being as successful in this decade. Not a hope. They wouldn't even let him in the video as a drummer!

I think about Addicted to Love was where it go too slick for me,always thought Robert Palmer was more in the Grace Jones mould than anything else, a kind of slick whiteboy soul.
If you think Phil Collins went downhill have pity on the soul & reggae fans, they really did suffer from 80s production fubars.
Too early to start the "I Love Luther Vandross" thread then?

Let's Dance -- also I think Stevie Ray Vaughn's guitar just doesn't fit well with the material. This was supposed to be a typical 80s pop record and just adding a blues guitarist to the mix is like a skin graft...

If only I'd have seen this education clip BEFORE last year's Sonic Rock Solstice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GzlhI1Tv4Q&feature=related
I ate several and lost the plot a tiny little bit. Well, quite a big little bit, really.
