Invisible Touch
is the thirteenth
studio album
by the English
rock band
released on
June 6th, 1986
Charisma/Virgin Records
After taking
a break in 1984
for each member
to continue
his solo career,
the band reconvened in
October 1985
to write and record
Invisible Touch
with engineer
and producer
Hugh Padgham.
As with their
previous album,
it was written entirely
through
group improvisations
and no material developed
prior to recording
was used.
Invisible Touch
was a worldwide success
and reached No. 1
on the
UK Albums Chart
and No. 3
on the
US Billboard 200.
It remains the band's
highest selling album
after it was
certified multi-platinum
for over
1.2 million copies
sold in the UK
and
6 million sold
in the US.
Genesis became
the first band
and foreign act
to have five
singles from one album
reach the top five
on the
US Billboard Hot 100,
with
"Invisible Touch"
being their first
and only song
to reach No. 1
on the charts.
The album received
mixed reviews
upon its release
and retrospectively,
with its more
pop-oriented approach
and perceived
similarities to
lead singer
Phil Collins'
solo work
receiving both
praise and criticism
