My fave Brand X album, "Product" has Phil's vocals all over it...I don't think he sang on any others though Wink

Of course I'm aware of Brand X but he didn't sing on any of those as far as I know. I don't consider them solo albums either. I only technically had Genesis in the poll because I figured there was some who liked his work with Genesis but not solo. Hope this makes sense(at least to some of you. LOL).

Hmmm..strokes beard and ponders...I bought Face Value as a loyal Genesis fan. I remember being proud he was on the TV with his paint pot. Initially quite liked the album - but as his solo career continued, Genesis continued to move away from their roots, the suit sleeves started getting rolled up, Easy Lover and You Can't Hurry Love came out, and finally the film Buster came out - I practically disowned him (sorry Phil, it wasn't personal - it's just business!). Thankfully his contribution to classic or even mid-period Genesis shines brightly still for me - and as you get older you get more forgiving of any errors of judgement.

Liked his stuff with Brand X though!

I like some of his stuff as well, although I rarely listen to his solo works. 

Face Value and But Seriously are good albums. No Jacket Required is ok, too. Testify was a nice surprise, IMO his best since the 80s.

I was thinking about this today for some reason. I like most of his solo stuff. I could do without the Tarzan stuff or whatever but even most of his pop stuff seems good for what it is to me. Yes, I realize I'm probably the outlier here. Tongue
