Phil Collins- "No Jacket Required"
OUR MOST BANANAS, OFF-THE-RAILS EPISODE YET!!!
In this episode of Classic Rocktails, hosts Doc and Mac revisit Phil Collins’ iconic 1985 album No Jacket Required — a record that dominated the charts with smash hits like “Sussudio,” “One More Night,” and “Take Me Home.” Was it a pop-rock masterpiece or an overproduced '80s time capsule?
They explore why this Grammy-winning album became one of the best-selling records of the 1980s, how its sound defined the era, and whether No Jacket Required still resonates with listeners today. Expect sharp opinions, deep cuts, and a cocktail pairing that’s just as smooth and dangerous as Collins' gated reverb drums.
Perfect for fans of Phil Collins, 80s pop rock, Genesis, and anyone wondering if No Jacket Required is still worth a listen in 2025.
