As long as you have the recovery phrase, you can recover it on whichever software you generated the seeds on.
If you forgot the software or service that generated your seeds then you will have to quickly use the most trusted seed recovery service (such as blockchain.info or electrum) and after you recover the seed, immediately generate a new address or wallet and send all your coin to that address to avoid getting your coin stolen unless you planning to use that most trusted software.
Never have anyone to manually recover for you or use the untrusted source as your coin may immediately get stolen before they give you the key.

If you have a blockchain.info recovery phrase (not from an old backup), then you have enough with your recovery phrase. You can enter it here and create your new account.
In other wallets, this can also be the case. So the rule is, if your recovery phrase is some where between 12-15 English words, you actually have the Mnemonic_phrase and can recover it in a lot of wallets (Electrum, Blockchain, ...)
For other type of recovery phrase, we need to know the wallet software you are using. Because they use the name 'recovery phrase' for something non-standard.
