Album of the Day

1996's DANCE INTO THE LIGHT was Phil Collins' first album after leaving Genesis (and his sixth solo set overall). Co-produced with longtime collaborator Hugh Padgham, the Atlantic collection brought elements of world music to the fore, most notably with flourishes of Afrobeat-styled percussion on several tracks. Featuring a dozen originals (and a new take on Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are A-Changin'), the album reached the Top 10 across Europe and was Gold-certified in America. Part of the new "Take A Look At Me Now" reissue series curated by Collins himself, the Deluxe Edition of DANCE INTO THE LIGHT includes a bonus disc of B-sides and previously unreleased live and demo versions of album tracks.
