Philip David Charles Collins
Who Is He?, by Meri Tomback

Welcome! This page is my tribute to, who I think is the greatest musician ever, Phil Collins. This is NOT an official site, but I try to keep it a comprehensive guide to nearly 100 Phil Collins-related sites on the Internet. You are welcome to contact me here, just remove SPM.
I would like to thank countless contributors who helped me with reviews, photos, interviews, and simply a kind word of support... Many thanks to Robert from Brazil, Patrick and Gwendal from Switzerland, Eric from England, Shawn from Canada, members of Sussudio and many, many others. This page would not happen without your support!
This page has moved once again. I can't promise that this is its final destination, you never know. For now, please update your Favorites!
