Phil Collins master of drumming?
As you loyal BnR readers know, the staff doesn't work, but instead sits at Philadelphia City Hall for free internet access and searches YouTube. Most of the time we come across complete crap, other times we find the entire Rolling Stones Rock n Roll Circus. In my case, I found the many drumming hats of Phil Collins.
Granted Phil Collins was a very accomplished jazz drummer before he was recruited for Genesis, but he weaves from progressive rock, to heavy metal to even big band. Included below are a few clips.
The first clip is Phil being the Phil Collins you all know. Bonus on this video: Peter Gabriel looks insane!
Here is Phil sitting in for Jethro Tull:
Here is Phil playing Big Band:
And finally my favorite, Phil playing drums for Black Sabbath on Paranoid:
If you found any of this post boring or unneeded, your children are tossing their teacher's salad right now and thus you have bigger concerns to worry about.

Phil Collins recently shocked the hell out of the music world by saying he was done drumming. Collins claims that working as a drummer says has forced his vertebrae together, crushing his spine.Speaking at a charity event Collins, 58, says: "After playing drums for 50 years I've had to stop. My vertebrae has been crushing my spinal cord because of the position I drum in. It comes from years of playing. I can't even hold the sticks properly without it being painful."This is a shame as in 2007, we showed you how versatile Phil ...
