Phil Collins – Hello, I Must Be Going!
Released: 1982
Label: Atlantic Records
Notes:
Front cover: This one’s in very good shape, albeit with some wearing in the darker areas. It does have a price sticker on it that I could remove but it would leave residue to do so. Removing it digitally was very simple and I did so through “cloning”.
Gatefold: The creases weren’t coming out no matter what I might do so I didn’t even try. I don’t think they detract from the enjoyment of the gatefold at all.
Back cover: The back is in very good shape as well. There was some wearing in the darker areas so I cloned them out here too.
Sleeves: These were in decent shape but had wrinkles in them. Thankfully, the text is so bold that using the paint bucket to remove them was really simple. I did this on both sides.
Labels: These are in great shape and removing the spindle hole was pretty simple. BTW, the handwriting thing was likely a cute idea at first but it does make the labels harder to read. I know that’s his “thing” so who cares what I think?
