Now Available: Phil Collins, Hello, I Must Be Going! / Dance Into the Light – Deluxe Editions

Last month, Phil Collins began the process of giving his fans a gift that’s been 35 years in the making: the deluxe reissuing and remastering of his back catalog of solo albums. Inevitably, the first round of reissues kicked off with the album that’s hitting the big 3-5 this year, 1981’s Face Value, but it was released simultaneously with one of Collins’ more underrated efforts, 1993’s Both Sides.

Today, round two begins, and the offerings will be just as exciting for fans as the first bunch proved to be.

First, there’s Hello, I Must Be Going, Collins’ 1982 sophomore album, which found him a far cry away from experiencing a slump, thanks to the big hits “You Can’t Hurry Love,” a cover of the classic Supremes single, and “I Don’t Care Anymore,” a Collins original. Its companion reissue is Dance into the Light, which arrived in 1996 and delivered no less than six singles in various territories around the world, and since it’s been awhile, we’ll refresh your memory as to what those songs were: “It’s in Your Eyes,” “You Ought to Know,” “No Matter Who,” Wear My Hat,” “The Same Moon,” and, of course, the title track, which gave Collins a top-10 single in the UK.

Yes, the albums sound great – as well they should, given that they’ve been remastered – but they also both feature a second disc filled with bonus material, including B-sides, live tracks, rehearsal versions, and demos. You can check out the full track listings below, and since they’re in stores now, you can rush off to the record store right after you finish reading.
