78. 'Face Value' - Phil Collins (1981(

Author: Lazarus Michaelides & Felipe Amorim August 26, 2024 Duration: 39:59
In the wake of a 1978 Genesis World Tour, Phil Collins found himself alone and without his family - having been left by his then-wife who took their two children to Canada. Amidst the heartache and the uncertainty, Collins wrote and executed one of the most honest and emotional pop albums of the 80s. 'Face Value' utilises great production, genre-blending and emotional lyrics to portray Phil Collin's feelings of the time - and what we got was one of the most introspective and heartfelt pop albums of the 80s that set a lyrical and musical standard for generations to come.

Their Long Live Rock 'N' Roll podcast is a dedicated space for that enthusiasm, moving beyond simple rankings to explore the texture and context of the genre. Each episode focuses on a specific song, band, or seminal album, dissecting not just the musical composition but the human stories and historical conditions that fueled its creation.

This isn’t a dry history lesson; it’s a lively discussion between two knowledgeable fans who believe the music’s power lies in its combination of raw sound and relatable humanity. Whether examining a legendary track from the 70s or a pivotal album from the 90s, the conversation in this podcast aims to connect the notes you hear to the people who made them and the listeners who found meaning in them. For anyone who has ever been captivated by a drum fill or a lyric shouted from a stage, Long Live Rock 'N' Roll offers a thoughtful, engaging deep dive into the soundtrack of rebellion and resonance.
