ok, im not a fan of phil collins or genesis, as music head knows, so maybe my opinion of phils new cd isnt one of generally liking his material, but 'going home' is an honest, accurate interpretation of 'soul' musics best songs, well motown anyway.
of the 18 tracks on the album theres probably 2or 3 that i dont like, the other 15 are good to very good, the best of which is the outstanding 'papa was a rolling stone' and '(love is like a)heatwave.
phil hasnt tried to update the music but has kept it true to the original style/instrumentation.
i am a big fan of 1960s and early 1970s soul music and this album does justice to the genre/period quite well.
