About this product

Product Information

Not Dead Yet is Phil Collins' candid, witty, unvarnished story of the songs and shows, the hits and pans, his marriages and divorces, the ascents to the top of the charts and into the tabloid headlines. As one of only three musicians to sell over 100 million records both in a group and as a solo artist, Collins breathes rare air, but he has never lost his talent for crafting songs that touch listeners around the globe. This is the story of his epic career, from child actor to one of the most successful songwriters of the pop music era. A drummer since almost before he could walk, Collins received on-the-job training in the seedy, thrilling bars and clubs of 1960s swinging London before finally landing the drum seat in Genesis. Later he would step into the spotlight on vocals after the departure of Peter Gabriel, and compose the songs that would rocket him to international solo fame with the release of Face Value and 'In the Air Tonight'. Whether he's recalling jamming with Eric Clapton and Robert Plant, pulling together a big band fronted by Tony Bennett, playing twice at Live Aid, or writing the Oscar-winning music for Disney's smash-hit animated film Tarzan, Collins keeps it intimate and his storytelling gift never wavers.

  • Back on Top

    It matters not if you are a massive fan of Phil Collins, his songs or his music as this book is a great read and a story from the heart. I have huge respect for this man, who despite having a crazy busy work schedule, gave time and energy to his neighbourhood when he was in West Sussex and had many good genuine friendships there. Buy and read the book and you will not regret it. The new era for this brilliant songwriter and even better drummer looks even brighter, so keep at it Phil! Have a fun 2017.

  • Great book, cover to cover

    I'm a diehard Genesis fan from 1977 onward. But knew next to nothing about the bandmembers. This is a great way to get to know Phil Collins a little bit better. Good reading, funny and sad. And of course it brings me back in the days... well worth your time.

  • Phil Collins is magnificent

    For Phil Collins and Genesis fans this is an absolute must. I thought I knew everything about them, but this is candid and covers lots of other little details, written in the style that can only have come directly from the pen of Phil Collins.
