After more than a decade of drumming with Genesis - plus six years of serving as their lead singer following the departure of Peter Gabriel - Face Value was Phil's first step into the solo spotlight. Inspired by deeply personal life experiences, including a recent divorce, the album became both a critical and commercial sensation.
