The set consists of three CDs that serve as an overview of Genesis' career from their formative period with Peter Gabriel and Anthony Phillips, continuing through their period with Phil Collins as lead singer, to their most recent recordings with Ray Wilson as frontman. As with 1998's Genesis Archive 1967–75, this collection is mostly sequenced in reverse chronological order (apart from the fact that ...Calling All Stations...' title track is at the end of the first disc) for the purpose of providing precedence to the newer material. The majority of the tracks were also remixed by studio collaborator Nick Davis.

Featuring songs from every studio album (with the exception of their 1969 debut From Genesis to Revelation) from 1970's Trespass to 1997's ...Calling All Stations..., Platinum Collection stands as the most comprehensive Genesis retrospective available. Upon its release, it reached No. 21 in the UK and No. 100 in the US.

From left to right, the cover features pictures used on the albums We Can't Dance (1991), Nursery Cryme (1971), A Trick of the Tail (1976), Foxtrot (1972), Duke (1980), and Invisible Touch (1986).

[de] Platinum Collection

Platinum Collection (englisch für „Platinsammlung“) ist eine 2004 veröffentlichte Sammlung der wichtigsten Stücke aus allen drei Jahrzehnten der Karriere der britischen Rockband Genesis. Nach der 1999 erschienenen Turn It On Again – The Hits, welche sich ausschließlich auf die Single-Veröffentlichungen konzentrierte, sollte diese neue Compilation einen repräsentativen Querschnitt des Genesis-Werks darstellen. So sind auf den 3 CDs 40 Stücke von allen Genesis-Studioalben mit Ausnahme des Erstlingswerks From Genesis to Revelation vertreten. Die Stücke sind vom neuesten zum ältesten geordnet, so dass man sich beim kontinuierlichen Durchhören aller drei Teile von der jüngsten Phase bis zu den Anfängen bewegt. Eine Ausnahme bildet das Titelstück der 1997er Studioplatte Calling All Stations, das nach dieser Logik Track 1 auf CD 1 sein müsste, tatsächlich aber das letzte Stück auf CD 1 ist.
