No Jacket Required is an album by Phil Collins, released in 1985 (1985 in music). This is Phil Collins' third solo record.
This album was nominated for the Grammy Awards of 1986, and was a much more commercially pop-oriented record, losing the dark cynicism of his two previous albums Face Value or Hello, I Must Be Going! with none of the political statements which would appear in the forthcoming But Seriously.... In terms of emotion, is certainly the happiest of Phil Collins' efforts, and as a result, much of the album is up-tempo, with the notable exceptions of "I Don't Wanna Know" and the mega selling ballad "One More Night".
There are two guest appearances on the album, firstly Sting on "I Don't Wanna Know" and Collins' ex-Genesis bandmate Peter Gabriel on "Take Me Home".
