Handwritten 'letter to the fans' statement by Phil Collins that was printed in a 1986 program for a tour featuring Collins, Eric Clapton, Nathan East, and Greg Phillinganes. The manuscript is penned in black ink on an off-white 7.25 x 9.75 and is signed at the conclusion by Collins, who adds a small self-portrait sketch of himself playing behind a drum kit. Collins’s handwritten message: “One day during the later stages of recording the tracks for Eric's new album, some bright spark suggested ‘Wouldn’t it be great to do some gigs together!’ Well that was it, the seed had been planted, and all of us started to think seriously and the possibilities. Playing the new songs and some of the old E.C. Classics. I am really very proud to be able to play on stage with musicians like Greg and Nathan, and of course Eric who I consider to be my dearest friend. By the time you read this we will already have played some gigs in Europe…maybe by the time you read this I will have been fired!! Assuming this is not the case I hope you enjoy the concert tonight as much as we will!” In fine condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and by an original ‘Clapton Collins Phillinganes East 86’ program featuring Collins' statement.
Originates from the estate of graphic designer Bogdan Zarkowski, the designer of the program.
