Testify by Phil Collins
Full Of Great Songs.
On his first album of new material since 1996, Phil Collinss crisp voice
returns to the forefront, as does the booming rhythmic grooves and rich
melodies. After taking time out to record his big-band tribute, A Hot Night in
Paris, and the Tarzan original soundtrack, the former Genesis drummer -
turned-frontman seek out more familiar territory on Testify. Collins
successfully updates his soft rock sound with discreet electro nic
embellishments and spartan arrangements. Its simple stuff, but its what
Collins does best. Most intriguing is his silky cover of Billy Nichollss Cant
Stop Loving You (originally recorded by Leo Sayer on his 1978 self -titled
album), but even originals like the effervescent Wake Up Call and the
shadowy Swing Low echo the ambitious reach of his most popular work. --

Personal Review: Testify by Phil Collins
All of the songs on this album have been well done. Not just because his
voice[which has his typical smooth style that I love] but because of the well
done guitars, drums[which Phil has once again done an incredible job with]
and the horns. Some songs like Driving Me Crazy were a little too busy for
me. It could be different for someone else. Thru My Eyes didn't seem to
have a nice tune. It was too plain for me. Other than those two songs I
thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the album. If you want to get a Phil Collins
CD, then this is one you need to get! Go Phil! And keep up the great work!!
