If you need one defining thing to pin down my particular musical taste, perhaps there is not better way than knowing that I like Phil Collins more than I like Peter Gabriel. Peter Gabriel was more experimental in many ways and also...to me...a little harder to listen to. Phil Collins was a little more accessible and pop oriented. Gabriel is Lennon and Collins is McCartney (of course with the Beatles I actually choose George, which means I should really be a fan of Mike + the Mechanics). Anyway, I'd rather see Collins' true colors than hear Gabriel shock the monkey. I enjoy them both, but Phil Collins is a little more my speed. This greatest hits compilation is a good - but not thorough - overview of the man's music.
