The set will be available this fall from Rhino Records
In celebration of the 30th anniversary of Phil Collins’ fifth solo studio album, Both Sides, it will be reissued as a special edition 5 LP box set on September 20th via Rhino Records.
This deluxe edition contains the remastered full original album, cut at half-speed by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios. It is a compendium of early demo tracks from the recording of the album as well as rarities from the singles originally released on the album – “Both Sides of the Story,” “Everyday” and “We Wait and We Wonder.” Both Sides (All The Sides) brings this full collection together with live tracks from the era, such as “Can’t Turn Back the Years,” “Both Sides of the Story” taken from Collins’ MTV Unplugged performance, “Doesn’t Anybody Stay Together Anymore” and more, as one release for the first time on vinyl. The set is housed in a slipcase with picture sleeves and a 16-page booklet containing newly written and extensive liner notes by esteemed journalist Michael Hann.
Proclaimed by Collins as his most personal album to that point in his career, Both Sides, originally released in 1993, is Collins’ fifth album and was written, performed and produced all by Collins himself at his home studio in just six weeks. Upon its original release, the album reached No. 1 in the UK and throughout Europe and No. 13 in the US and has become a global multi-platinum seller.
Also announced is Live From the Board: Official Bootleg, a limited edition ten-inch vinyl for RSD Black Friday on November 29th. This four-track EP was originally released in 1995 and features songs recorded on the Both Sides Tour in 1994 under the artist name Phil Collins & The Indescribable Din. It features the tracks “Sussudio,” “Easy Lover,” “Separate Lives,” and “My Girl.”
