PHIL COLLINS hit album 1985’s ”No Jacket Required” is receiving a 40th anniversary reissue, with a fresh 2025 mix done by expert Steven Wilson.
”No Jacket Required” is Phil Collins’ third solo album, and mixed his trademark emotional ballads alongside strong funk and R&B influences. The album’s hit singles — “Sussudio,” “One More Night,” “Don’t Lose My Number,” and “Take Me Home” — would also become staples of his live shows in the years that followed.
”No Jacket Required” was a resounding global hit, reaching #1 in 11 countries, including the UK, US, Australia, Canada, Germany, Spain, and Sweden, received three Grammy and has sold over 25 million copies to date, RIAA-certified Diamond in the U.S.
”No Jacket Required (2025 Mix)” will be released on vinyl LP and Blu-ray audio. There’s no CD version.
The new 2025 mix – approved by original co-producer Hugh Padgham – is very good, and curiously, makes the album sound even ”more ’80s” than the original. This is pop, but good pop-rock and pure Eighties, a guilty pleasure for many (including us).
