via PetaPixel— Phil Collins Reshot All His Original Album Covers for the 2016 Reissues
Famed musician Phil Collins began reissuing some of his most loved albums in November of 2015 as part of a collection called “Take a look at me now…” But keen-eyed fans of Mr. Collins noticed something curious about the reissues: the Phil Collins on the new album covers looks quite a bit older.
And that’s exactly what Mr. Collins was going for. The title “Take a look at me now…” is meant to be taken literally, and so in addition to some musical extras thrown in for his fans, Collins also had some fun recreating each one of the six albums’ covers:

Monday Night Hidden Soothiness….
Yawn…I just assumed he was dead
I always liked Captain Hair Loss. Hey it was the 80’s, hair bands ruled!
Keith Richards should do that.
If he could find pictures of himself from 160 years ago when he was young.
…never did like that song
…not that I don’t like a lot of his other stuff though
Man that guy is ugly, makes Cruz look good looking.
I’m only familiar with his brother, Tom.
?
Damn. How’d I get to be Synonymous, anyway?
No new posts for 2 hrs?
Something on tv?
Speaking of Against All Odds, I nominate Keith Richards.
Dang. No respect for Phil here?
I’m for Against All Odds as long as Rachel Ward is served on a hard roll with cream cheese and some capers and anchovies….
Lost his baby fat.
I always thought Phil looked like Ernest T. Bass from the Andy Griffith Show….and his music? Suh suh suckio!!!
Phil strikes me as a pretty decent guy. I’m with Nougat.
a great vocalist, great musician, great composer, great songwriter….

Illustr8r. What a great story that is. I like his music. How people can make snap decisions about someone is beyond me. You should put that back up again just too see the response.
I always loved Phil Collins’ music, and I think the guy has gotten better looking as he’s aged. Thanks for posting Illustr8r!
30 years will do that to ya
