Serious Hits...Live! 2019

Amazing!!

New to his music ,but so far I like it

As a long-time fan, I have gotten all the remasters, and so, even though I never liked this release, I bit the bullet and got the cd. Upon its initial release, I was disappointed it was just a best-of collection and not a whole concert, but much more than that was the tinny, off-putting sound of the original.Well, this release has a great balance--you can actually hear Lee Sklar now! (actually really well)--and I can't stop listening. It's been in the car since it came out, and, unusually for me, I haven't wanted to take it out after many listens. It's really fun, sound is great, and even though it's just hits, I find myself enjoying the tracklist and flow of it.So, from this fan (FV and HIMBG are my faves, for reference), I say dive in, and have fun with Phil and his Serious Band!

I was hesitant to order this vinyl after reading reviews indicating it has pressing issues that led to skipping. But because Amazon has a reasonable return policy, I gave it a shot anyway. When it arrived and I played it for the first time, the first track on side one of the album one skipped at the beginning, and I grabbed the packaging expecting to immediately return it. But I decided to leave it playing and, sure enough, the skipping stopped. It wasn't the type of skipping that makes the track repeat; it is more or an actual skip. Being that it was only at the beginning of the first song and I could put the needle just beyond it, I have decided to keep the collection anyway.Skipping issues aside, this is a wonderful collection of some of Phil Collin's greatest hits. I believe the live performances enhance the emotionality of some of the slower songs such as "Separate Lives," "Against All Odds," and "In the Air Tonight." Th only song I wish would have been included is "I Wish it Would Rain Down"-- what a truly amazing. heartfelt song.

If you like "live" you will really like this. This is one great CD.

I usually don't like live music CDs, but the music on this CD is twice as Musical, sounds totally awesome.

The media could not be loaded. I have purchased this record twice horribly Skippy from two different records players ...my high end anti skate record skips... The cheap one skips and in the same place as the one I returned. I believe the pressing is defective. Just get the CD.

Sound quality for an affordable price.Luckily in perfect condition never skips dyring entire play.
