NO JACKET REQUIRED

Description

Although it is hard to imagine Phil Collins being refused entry to a restaurant for inappropriate attire, it really happened and inspired the title of NO JACKET REQUIRED. With his third solo album, the performer joins a very exclusive club as one of the most successful hitmakers of the 1980s; the collection produced four Top Ten singles: "One More Night", "Don't Lose My Number", "Take Me Home" and "Sussudio", which topped the US chart that day in 1985. The remaining tracks are also distinctive, blending upbeat horn-and-drum songs with more thoughtful and atmospheric material for a striking effect, and making the album’s Grammy Album of the Year entirely justified. If you are interested in mainstream pop from the last 30 years, the Diamond-certified NO JACKET REQUIRED is essential listening. Released in 1985, 'No Jacket Required', Phil Collins' third album, triumphed at the top of the UK and US charts and in many countries before winning three Grammy Awards (Best Album, Best Male Pop Vocal Performance and Producer of the Year for Phil Collins and co-producer Hugh Padgham) and selling more than 20 million copies worldwide. A blend of intense ballads and strong funk-R&B influences, the album includes the hits 'Sussudio', 'One More Night', 'Don't Lose My Number' and 'Take Me Home'.
