Phil Collins pulls no punches in his candid memoir, sharing the highs and lows of his life and career. He recounts his early start at age 11, appearing in a crowd shot from the Beatles’ film A Hard Day’s Night. A drummer from a young age, Collins honed his skills in the vibrant bars and clubs of 1960s London before joining Genesis. After Peter Gabriel's departure, he stepped into the spotlight as a vocalist, launching into international fame with hits like Face Value and In the Air Tonight. His storytelling shines as he recalls jamming with legends like Eric Clapton and Robert Plant, forming a big band with Tony Bennett, and composing music for Disney’s animated Tarzan. Collins addresses the question of Sussudio's meaning while offering an unvarnished look at his life, including his marriages, divorces, and the tumultuous journey through fame. As one of only three musicians to sell 100 million records both in a group and solo, he has a unique perspective on success. The memoir also reveals his struggles following his retirement in 2007 and the enduring love that helped him through dark times. This is Phil Collins as you’ve always known him, yet with new insights into his life and artistry.
