I get the feeling Phil Collins has very little time left . I wanted to listen to some of his life.

In Chicago. They were magnificent. But when they were down to 3 they sure learned how to fill the void with new full sound making their "new" sound. Then when Hackett and Collins joined they became really progressive and full.
Adding new equipment they got from King Crimson and having to use bass pedals and a fuzz board to add fullness when they were at 3 and 4 members. They developed into their own uniqueness.
