Going Back is the eighth solo studio album by English singer-songwriter and drummer Phil Collins,released on 13 September 2010 by Atlantic Records. [1] [2] His first solo album in eight years,it features covers of 1960s Motown and soul standards.
Going Back made an impact on the charts worldwide,becoming a top five album in 16 countries. It became Collins's first UK number one studio album since 1993's Both Sides . Two editions were released;a standard edition with 18 tracks and a limited Ultimate Edition with 25 tracks and a DVD with various bonus content. [3] Exclusive versions available on Amazon and iTunes were also available. Collins promoted the album with a seven-date tour in the summer of 2010. Although Collins said Going Back was to be his final project with his retirement in 2011,he later resumed his career in 2015. [4] In 2016,Going Back was reissued as The Essential Going Back with fewer studio tracks,but additional live recordings and updated artwork. [5] [6]
In October 2007,Collins finished commitments with Genesis with the Turn It On Again Tour. It was during the tour when Collins dislocated some vertebrae in his upper neck as a result from drumming,which affected his hands and the ability to play. In September 2009,Collins said that despite a successful subsequent operation on his neck,he did not regain full functionality of his hands,particularly his left,which made it "impossible for me to play drums or piano". [7] Despite this setback,in the following month Collins announced his next studio album which was to feature 1960s Motown and soul standards covers,with the aim of having the tracks sounding "exactly like the originals". [8] He asserted that the idea was not to "bring anything 'new' to these already great records,but to try to recreate the sounds and feelings that I had when I first heard them. My intention was to make an 'old' record,not a 'new' record". [9] Collins had wanted to do such an album for many years,and was greatly influenced by his time watching former London-based group The Action perform the same tunes at The Marquee club. Collins called the album "a special case" and "almost like not part of Phil Collins' career",but deliberately chose it as his final solo album,which made it "a perfect circle" and "a beautiful journey" to end with music that he started off listening to. [10] The album also marked the end of Collins's record deal with Atlantic Records. [11]
The album originated in 2008 when Collins selected lesser known and "darker" Motown songs that he liked best as a youngster,and produced demos of them at his home studio in Geneva,Switzerland,using Cubase software. [12] In late 2008,Collins approached Swiss audio engineer,producer,and mixer Yvan Bing,a former drummer who lived near Geneva,to help finalise the tracks and co-produce the album. The pair first met in New York City in 2006,when the two were working on the musical adaptation of Tarzan (1998). [13] The first recording session took place in January 2009,and involved Collins playing along to the drum parts on his demos with a real kit to see if he could handle recording all the drums live. [13] Collins brought in a kit that he had owned since 1964,and the session was the first time Collins sat at a kit since his operation,and had to tape his left hand to the drumstick to play. In addition to Geneva,the album was recorded at The Farm in Shalford,Surrey,and in New York City. [13] Bing realised early into the project that using digital audio workstation was the ideal platform to recreate all the individual parts to the songs,and opted for Pro Tools,with the sound enhanced by analogue equipment. [13]
The lead vocals on the album were taken from Collins's home demos,except a few re-recorded sections put down later. [13] Collins enlisted musicians Bob Babbitt,Eddie Willis,and Ray Monette,who were part of The Funk Brothers and played on several Motown recordings from 1959 until 1972. Collins said to be able to have the surviving members involved "was unbelievable",and felt "a wave of happiness and wonder that this was actually happening to me" as he was performing with them on "(Love Is Like A) Heatwave". [9] [13] The overdubs for the 25 tracks were completed from 11 to 20 January 2010. [14] Collins had his two youngest sons,Nicholas and Matthew,stomp their feet on the recording of "Jimmy Mack". [13]
Until early 2010,the album was going to be called 18 Good Reasons with the album cover stylised to recall the Motown era. But the chance discovery of a photograph of 13-year-old Collins playing drums in the Getty Images library caused a change in direction,resulting in the album being called Going Back. [15] Collins noted he actually had to pay for use of the picture of himself. The 2016 reissue of the album used a new photograph featuring a present-day Collins.
On 10 April 2010 the first release of the recordings,"Too Many Fish in the Sea" was given free to new users who signed up to Collins's relaunched website.[ citation needed ] The title track,"Going Back" started to receive airplay in May and was streamed online on Collins's website soon after. "(Love Is Like a) Heat Wave" and "Going Back" were released as singles. On 31 July 2010,Atlantic Records unveiled the music video for "(Love Is Like a) Heatwave". [16] On 24 August 2010,a music video for "Girl (Why You Wanna Make Me Blue)" was released on Collins's official YouTube channel. [17]
Going Back debuted at No. 1 in the Dutch Albums Chart for the week ending 18 September 2010. [18] The album also reached No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart for the week ending 23 September 2010. [19] It was his first UK No. 1 in 12 years ( ...Hits ) and his first UK No. 1 in 17 years ( Both Sides ) counting only albums with new material.
Collins decided to perform a series of live shows in the summer to promote Going Back. "Up Close &Personal:Phil Collins Plays 60's Motown &Soul" was exclusively devoted to the music from the new album and were not part of an upcoming world tour. The first of these shows were announced on 14 April,to take place at New York's Roseland Ballroom for three nights from 23 to 25 June. Two nights in Philadelphia were then added to the list. On 29 April,it was confirmed that Collins was to be part of the opening night of 2010 Montreux Jazz Festival. Two days later,it was announced that Collins would perform a one-off show in London on 28 June 2010. This show was broadcast live on ITV1 18 September 2010.

Collins was supported by an 18-piece band for the brief six show tour. The band included Funk Brothers bassist Bob Babbitt,guitarists Eddie Willis &Ray Monette,Genesis touring musicians Daryl Stuermer on guitar and drummer Chester Thompson,a five-piece horn section,six back-up singers (Amy Keys,Lamont Van Hooke,Lynne Fiddmont-Linsey,Connie Jackson-Comegys,Terron Brooks and Bill Cantos),percussionist/vocalist Leslie Smith and keyboardist Brad Cole. Thompson had been drumming for Collins on tour for 34 years,but Collins stopped working with him after the final show in Montreux due to his disatifaction with Thompson's playing during the tour. Collins and Thompson have not reconciled or spoken to each other since the tour ended. "I was pretty upset. But I'm over it now. I wish him nothing but the best," said Thompson of the rift in 2021. [20]
Andy Greene,of Rolling Stone ,wrote of the final show in New York:"It's very hard not to come off like a glorified wedding band when you play a two-hour concert comprised entirely of Motown and soul covers,but last night in New York,Phil Collins pulled it off". [21] At Montreux,record producer Quincy Jones appeared on stage to praise Collins as sounding as if he was from the "south side of Chicago",while Montreux festival founder Claude Nobs said:"He was magnificent. There was a lot of emotion and sincerity. And it's only the beginning of the festival." [22]

Initial reception to the album was mixed,as Metacritic gave it a score of 53 out of 100. [23] David Sheppard of BBC Music said "So faithfully have Collins and his confreres recreated the Sound of Young America –shimmering tambourines drowning out drums,bass compressed to a fat,distorted throb –that it's hard not to be swept along". [25] The album was also featured as BBC Radio 2's "Album of the Week" on 4 September 2010. [34] Martin Townsend of the Daily Express stated "You have to take your hat off to Phil Collins. Expressing the refreshingly modest desire to make an "old-sounding" album of cover versions the 59-year-old singer zips through a selection of mostly-Motown classics like 'Jimmy Mack' and 'Uptight' with the verve energy and wit of a man reborn." [35]
Jack Foley of IndieLondon gave it 3 out of 5 stars,adding "The resulting album is as heartfelt and faithfully recreated as you might expect from an artist of Collins' calibre ..." [36] Donald Gibson of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer said that "Going Back is an homage,plain and simple,with which Collins honors the songwriters,musicians,and vocalists who inspired him to pursue his own musical path as a young man." [31] Graeme Thomson of Uncut was not so impressed,giving the album 2 stars out of 5 and stating "You can't fault the raw material,but Collins brings nothing new to these songs. If you have an overpowering desire to hear him gamely plough through renditions of 'Papa Was a Rollin' Stone' and 'Uptight',step aboard. For anyone else,Going Back is a heartfelt but pointless exercise in ersatz soul." [37] Terry Staunton of Record Collector was even more negative,defining the album as a set "of 60s soul covers of baffling irrelevance" and wondering,"what possible use could anyone have for weedy-voiced faded Xeroxes of songs readily available in their wondrously uplifting original form?" [29]
Ross Bennett of Mojo gave the album 3 stars out of 5 and wrote:"all are faithful reproductions of the originals. The likes of 'Uptight','Loving You Is Sweeter Than Ever' and 'Jimmy Mack' capture the exuberance of those '60s sides,but the slower ballads –particularly 'Blame It on the Sun' and a desperately cloying 'Never Dreamed You'd Leave in Summer' –are plain dreary." [27] Legendary Motown songwriter and producer Lamont Dozier hailed Going Back;"Recording an album of Motown covers can be tricky,but I have to say this album has exceeded my expectations. Phil Collins has truly given us the real thing vocally,instrumentally,and production-wise... It's spectacular,making it impossible to pick a favorite because they're all masterfully done." [38]

No Jacket Required is the third solo studio album by English drummer and singer-songwriter Phil Collins. It was released on 18 February 1985 by Virgin Records in the UK and by Atlantic and WEA internationally.
Hello, I Must Be Going! is the second solo studio album by the English drummer and singer-songwriter Phil Collins. It was released on 5 November 1982 on Virgin Records in the United Kingdom and on Atlantic Records in North America, and named after the Marx Brothers' song of the same name. After Genesis took a break in activity in late 1981, Collins started work on a follow-up to his debut solo studio album Face Value (1981).
We Can't Dance is the fourteenth studio album by the English rock band Genesis, released on 11 November 1991 by Virgin Records in the UK and a day later by Atlantic Records in the US. It is their last studio album recorded with drummer and singer Phil Collins before his departure in 1996 to pursue solo projects full time. The album marked the return of band activity following an almost four-year hiatus after touring their previous album, Invisible Touch (1986).
Face Value is the debut solo studio album by English drummer and singer-songwriter Phil Collins, released on 13 February 1981, by Virgin Records in the United Kingdom and Atlantic Records in North America. After his first wife filed for divorce in 1979, Collins began to write songs during a break in activity from Genesis with much of the material concerning his personal life. The album was recorded from mid-1980 to early 1981 with Collins and Hugh Padgham as producers. Additional musicians include the Phenix Horns, Alphonso Johnson, and Eric Clapton.
Invisible Touch is the thirteenth studio album by the English rock band Genesis, released on 6 June 1986 by Atlantic Records in the United States and on 9 June 1986 by Charisma/Virgin Records in the United Kingdom. After taking a break in 1984 for each member to continue his solo career, the band reconvened in October 1985 to write and record Invisible Touch with engineer and producer Hugh Padgham. As with their previous album, it was written entirely through group improvisations and no material developed prior to recording was used.
Genesis is the twelfth studio album by English rock band Genesis, released on 3 October 1983 by Charisma and Virgin Records in the UK and by Atlantic Records in the US and Canada. Following the band's tour in support of their 1982 live album Three Sides Live, Genesis took an eight-month break before they regrouped in the spring of 1983 to record a new album. It is their first written and recorded in its entirety at their studio named The Farm in Chiddingfold, Surrey, and the songs were developed through jam sessions in the studio with nothing written beforehand. Hugh Padgham returned as their engineer.
...But Seriously is the fourth solo studio album by English drummer and singer-songwriter Phil Collins. It was released on 20 November 1989 in the United Kingdom by Virgin Records and by Atlantic Records in the United States. After Collins finished touring commitments with the rock band Genesis in 1987, the group entered a four-year hiatus, during which Collins starred in the feature film Buster (1988). By the spring of 1989, Collins had written material for a new solo album, which addressed more serious lyrical themes, like socio-economic and political issues, as opposed to his previous dance-oriented album, No Jacket Required (1985).
Duke is the tenth studio album by English rock band Genesis, released on 28 March 1980 on Charisma Records. The album followed a period of inactivity for the band in early 1979. Phil Collins moved to Vancouver, Canada, in an effort to salvage his failing first marriage, while Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford recorded solo albums. Collins returned to the UK after his marriage ended and wrote a significant amount of material, some of which was used for Duke and some was later reworked for his first solo album, Face Value. Duke contained a mix of individually written songs and tracks that evolved from jam sessions in mid-1979, while recording took place at the end of the year. The break in activity rejuvenated the band, and they found the album an easy one to work on.
...Calling All Stations... is the fifteenth and final studio album by English rock band Genesis. It was released 1 September 1997 by Virgin Records and is their only album featuring Scottish singer Ray Wilson as frontman following the departure of long-term drummer/singer Phil Collins in 1996, making it their only album since Trespass to not involve Collins. The remaining members—founding keyboardist Tony Banks and guitarist/bassist Mike Rutherford—decided to continue the band and write new music for an album, during which they auditioned singers and chose Wilson.
"You Can't Hurry Love" is a song originally recorded by the Supremes on the Motown label. It was released on July 25, 1966 as the second single from their studio album The Supremes A' Go-Go.
The Principle of Moments is the second solo studio album by the English singer Robert Plant, formerly of Led Zeppelin. It was Plant's second Top 10 album in the US and UK. It also gave him his first solo Top 40 hit with "Big Log". The most popular track on album-oriented rock radio in the US was "Other Arms", which reached number-one on the Billboard Top Tracks chart. Genesis' drummer Phil Collins played drums on five of the album's eight songs. On two tracks former Jethro Tull drummer Barriemore Barlow performed and on the closing track, "Big Log", Gerald Woodroffe programmed a Roland TR-808 drum machine.
Turn It On Again: The Hits is a greatest hits album by British progressive rock/pop-rock band Genesis. The album was originally released as a single album on 25 October 1999 by Virgin Records in the UK and on 26 October 1999 by Atlantic Records in the US.
Platinum Collection is a career-spanning compilation album by British veteran rock band Genesis. It was released on 29 November 2004 in the UK and 13 September 2005 in the US. In both countries it was issued on the same day as The Video Show DVD.
Dance into the Light is the sixth solo studio album by English drummer and singer-songwriter Phil Collins, released on 21 October 1996 in the United Kingdom by Face Value Records. It features guest backing vocals from some of Collins' touring accompanists, including Arnold McCuller and Amy Keys. It was the first album that Collins released as a full-time solo artist, having left Genesis earlier that year.
Testify is the seventh solo studio album by English musician Phil Collins, released on 11 November 2002. The album debuted at No. 30 on the US Billboard 200, which was also the album's peak position. It was the second Phil Collins studio album where no track peaked within the American top 40 singles chart. It was also his lowest charting album in the UK, becoming his only solo effort not to reach the top 5. However, the album achieved success in some countries of Continental Europe. It is his second album not to be co-produced by Hugh Padgham, who co-produced Collins' most successful albums.
Hits is the first greatest hits album by English drummer and singer-songwriter Phil Collins. It was released on 5 October 1998 in the United Kingdom, and one day later in the United States. The collection included fourteen top 40 hits, including seven American number one songs, spanning from the albums Face Value (1981) through Dance into the Light (1996). One new Collins recording, a cover of Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors", also appeared on the collection and was a popular song on adult contemporary stations. Hits was also the first Phil Collins album to include four songs originally recorded for motion pictures as well as his popular duet with Philip Bailey, "Easy Lover".
English musician Phil Collins has released 8 studio albums, 1 live album, 5 compilation albums, 2 remix albums, 3 soundtrack albums, 2 box sets, 50 singles, 18 video albums, and 41 music videos. A Grammy and Academy Award-winning solo artist, Collins has sold more than 34.5 million albums in the United States, and 150 million records worldwide.
"Heat Wave" is a 1963 song written by the Holland–Dozier–Holland songwriting team. It was first made popular by the Motown vocal group Martha and the Vandellas, who issued it as a single on July 10, 1963, on the Motown subsidiary Gordy label. The single reached number one on the Billboard Hot R&B chart—where it stayed for four weeks—and peaking at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Tarzan: An Original Walt Disney Records Soundtrack is the soundtrack for the 1999 Disney animated feature film Tarzan. The songs on the soundtrack were composed by Phil Collins and the instrumental score was composed by Mark Mancina. The song "You'll Be in My Heart" won both the Academy Award for Best Original Song and the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song and received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Song Written for a Motion Picture, Television or Other Visual Media, while the soundtrack album won a Grammy Award for Best Soundtrack Album. For his contribution to the soundtrack, Collins received an American Music Award for Favorite Adult Contemporary Artist.
The Singles is a compilation album by English drummer Phil Collins. It was released on 14 October 2016 through Atlantic Records and Warner Music. The album is Collins' fourth compilation album—after ...Hits (1998), The Platinum Collection (2004) and Love Songs: A Compilation... Old and New (2004)—and came at the end of his Take a Look at Me Now series, which saw him remaster and reissue his entire back catalogue dating back to 1981's Face Value.
