Advantages: First time on cd for many tracks Disadvantages: pastiche agenda limits wider appeal
a dozen top tenners ,the unheard of but unforgettabe "Baby its you" sounding like a note perfect cover version of a song thet never existed provided the agenda for most of the first album included here ,and the nearly hit "Wonderful"with its flutes and strings still sounds fresh and innocent,and innocent being a perfect adjective to describe this enjoyable experience .
Mostly remembered for her bee hive hair do and cod glamour ,"ThePlatinumCollection" offers a opportunity to show Mari Wilson in a more complimentary light ,being at least as entertaining as her contemporaries of the time like The Belle Stars and the Paul Weller sponsored Tracie!,the obvious nostalgic agenda can irritate after a while but then again this record is not designed for repeated plays merely quick bursts of sunday morning youthful recall.

Advantages: Huge collection of the very best of Genesis from all eras. Disadvantages: None that spring to mind
I'm 17 - yet my favourite band is Genesis.... Strange that, not many 17 year olds know about this great band. If they do, they?re most likely to not admit it because they?re embarrassed about their knowledge. The wonders of the human psyche. Another strange thing is, I like all three eras of Genesis, whereas most only like one particular era, usually that of Gabriel or Collins. I was slightly confused at first, when hearing both Peter Gabriel and Ray Wilson singing, as I was introduced to them by a Phil Collins track.
The way I see it, there are three eras in Genesis? history. This album, aptly named ?PlatinumCollection?, covers all three of them in some form or another.
Era 1, the Peter Gabriel years is covered on Disc 3. Don?t be fooled by the short track list, for the songs are nice and long. They?re not half bad ...
Advantages: 2 CDs - bought it cheap from ebay - lots of songs Disadvantages: had most of the songs anyway!
long!!....... anyway - overall i have to say that even though there are a few really good songs on this album - they are mainly really old songs and nothing new and fresh - i know it is a platinumcollection but there aren't any of the classics of RnB that i would choose to put on a collection like this.. most of the song lyrics are lovey dovey which is good if you like that sort of thing but sometimes i think RnB should be more uplifting and not all about being in love & relationships..
i would not recommend anyone to buy this - u probably have all the songs anyway & even if you dont - they are not the best songs that the artists that are featured on this album have released..
thanks for reading - hope this review helped anyone who was thinkin of getting this..
(p.s. this is my first day writing reviews - im trying to improve ...
