Not to mention the premier arranger, writer, conductor, and player of this century, Quincy Jones!

[@rk41gator]

Very true about Quincy, but did you know Phil did his own arrangements of most of his music (though his did not score them)? I am sure you are right about Quincy scoring all this. Phil also produced hit albums by BIG name soloists such as Zeppelin's Robert Plant and his friend Eric Clapton to name just two.

[@TheFreemanuk]

There will always be a massive place in my heart for Phill Collins's music, drumming. the memories are golden,his contribution to music as a drummer, singer, producer,all-round top man outstrips anything unparalleled that has been before him in UK and since. Go on my son x

Luis Conte the Cuban percussionist seemed to steal the show.

I mean you can’t really get better than this can you. Top of the league players. Collins one of the all time great 20th century drummers. Who remembers Brand X - Phil Collins 70’s prog rock band?

[@gringochucha]

The drumming on Unorthodox Behaviour is absolutely delicious.

[@richardmoloney689]

And So To F....

[@showmoke]

@@richardmoloney689 - 'and so to F' is an extraordinary piece of work. I have a rather grainy video of Brand X playing that number live on the BBC's Old Grey Whistle Test and despite the poor picture and sound quality, it's still possible to see/hear and admire what was being played out in front of the viewer.

[@markdziadulewicz6160]

And Phil did it all in his mind without really being able to read a chart...phenomenal...

[@ldelcarmen]

What groove on this. Phil ‘the human metronome’ Collins, Luis Conte on percussions, Nathan East on bass, David Sanborn on Sax and even Phil’s regular sideman Daryl Steurmer on guitar. And that horn section. Conducted by the living legend QJ!

[@MegaMikeArnold]

With all due respect to Quincy and Phil, Luis Conte on percussion lights this piece and keeps the flames stoked throughout. I got to speak to him at a PAS event near DC years ago and his talent is beyond comprehension. Nice guy too. Thanks Phil! Thanks Quincy! Thanks Luis! and thanks to Herbie Hancock (who had nothing to do with this btw) while I'm m at it!! Miraculous talent in action is a gift from God, a reflection of His infinite wisdom and love.

Absolutely amazing! Why have I not come across this masterpiece before now? Every now and then you come across a truly phenomenal piece of music on KZbin and feel like you've struck gold.

[@luckyvet]

Agreed Scott! It always happens when you least expect it.

[@davesax11]

Agree. I'm a jazzer all the way. Not that familiar with Phil. This is a great piece beautifully orchestrated and executed by Quincy, Phil & all.

[@mrandrewhowell]

If you didn't know it's actually based on one of the Genesis big stadium sets... albeit this us a jazzed up version

[@tinadinapoli2052]

Phil did a ‘big band’ tour. There’s a few concerts on here.

[@SamDeeksRelovedGuitars]

My eye missed the 'Los Endos suite' part of the title so I settled back to hear Phil contribute & fit in to another genre of music. When I realised what was going on it put an even bigger smile on my face :-D

[@redstang5150]

Performances like this leave me awestruck. There are just no words.

[@johnb2706]

I know this is an old video, but Harry Kim is a damn monster. His range and tone is truly sick.

[@madmattdrummer5487]

Wow I didn’t know this existed. Phil is such an amazing drummer. And the rest of the big band aren’t bad either 😉

[@churchofpos2279]

This is the result , when a group of professional, talented musicians get together.

[@jerrysantos6484]

I love how Quincy embraces the moment and as a conductor allows the flow to be embraced by the audience. The solo on the timbales drives this point home. Then he bring the heat with a powerful ansamble to colaborate in the dynasty of sound and amazement. He is a BAD ASS! If you do not agree, we can not be friends. He dominated. my youth in the 80's and 90's. A master of his craft and a dominant figure of HIS time. Love you mucho Quincy Jones! 👍😁😁😎👍👍👍👍👍

Dang, that was amazing!! Just recently discovered Phil's Big Band, and I've become obsessed!! Q leading the way only makes it better!! 🔥😎❤️

[@kbrewski1]

Great video, I have this on dvd or blu ray somewhere. Los Endos is my favorite Genesis track to hear live (with the exception of the complete Suppers Ready which I saw live in 1982). Its a scorching sizzling example of Genesis doing jazz fusion at its best. I saw Genesis live 10 times and EVERY concert I went to they ended the main set list with Los Endos. IT WAS ALWAYS KILLER LIVE, with Phil dual drumming with Chester Thompson. A perfect way to end the concert (before the encores). That includes the 2007 Genesis Reunion Tour, 31 years after Los Endos was first performed. I wish I could have seen this Big Band Tour live, but its great to have this documented on video for posterity. What a band! I had forgotten about David Sanborn, very cool. (He grew up in my hometown, StL area). If anyone had ever doubted Phil's drumming or jazz chops, (ie you only know he sings Sussudio and the Tarzan Disney song), you might want to listen to his work as Genesis' drummer from 1971>1992, the 2007 Reunion Tour, plus his work with the Progressive jazz fusion group Brand X in the late 70s/early 80s. Great instrumental jazz fusion drumming. Plus his drum duets with Chester Thompson on his solo tours. Its Bruford, Collins, Carl Palmer and Neil Peart as far as best drummers in the last 50+ years. Only nit with this video is no Chester for some reason, and a bit too much of his percussionist at the beginning. Otherwise fantastic.

[@SuperBC10]

I’d like to add Stewart Copeland to that list myself but that’s imho 😊

[@RicardoMartinez-oh9sq]

Collins can play polyrhythms, and play them superbly, a major drummer worldwide.

[@nigelbinnie282]

FFS what a performance Nathan East , David Sanborn and Q 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@rk41gator]

Thanks. I was wondering who that great sax solo was played by, of course Sanborn. Would have loved to hear the encore. Phil always gives it his all.

[@thomaslang961]

[@ivanakalasova3926]

So nice... 👌💗 All of these musicians are simply awesome... And Phil is my hero! It's a shame that the most people know him just as a pop star. I love him the most with GENESIS. ♥

The best Phil Collins ! Master

[@jerrysantos6484]

I remember when Phill Practiced at the old GoodYear Blimp Hanger in Houston. I hung out outside at the age of 19 listening to how he practiced. He demanded perfection during practice. That is what made his name synonimus with excellence. That is why we see Quincy Jones and Phill Collins in the same video, together. Excellence only hangs with excellence. BTW, the concert he was practicing for in Houston in the 90's, Was awesome. Unforgetable!👍👍👍👍

Excellent, I knew Phil Collins was a Drummer, but had NO Idea he was THIS Good a player in a Big Band Format....quite Amazing....really.

[@voxac30withstrat]

Very underated and sadly much maligned. Not sure why. Maybe his foray into pop did it. Either way he is a consumate professional.

[@michaelkatz4675]

Really. Where have you been? He has been drumming since he was four and was Genesis’ Drummer starting in 1970. You may want to research Phil’s incredibly extensive discography.

[@gringochucha]

@@voxac30withstrat I remember an interview with Bill Bruford where he referred to Phil's drumming in a pretty disparaging way. As a drummer myself, I'll take Phil over Bill any day. You can learn all the chops in the world, but a feel like Phil's can't be bought or sold.

[@davesax11]

Growing up, when I'd talk to pop/rock band musicians the music many really loved was jazz. Phil had his pop day but shows here he has serious drum and jazz big band skills.

[@jamesbond4633]

Man...were they ever working it!!!...Even Quincy Jones conducting was giving it his all!!! Amazing..I have never seen this before. The musicianship on this was truly wonderful. Lots of hard work I bet. Must have been a joy for Quincy to conduct all those fabulous musicians!!!

Beautiful. Phil Collins is so under estimated, as a drummer, composer, leader it's criminal. Because he was successful. Go figure. He's great!

[@waltzguy14151]

umm.. I'm pretty sure he's not. Every person and every musician knows what a phenomenal talent he is. Drummer, singer, composer, producer, hit songs, hit records.. Brand X, played on Hackett's albums, Robert Plant's.. had EWF's horn section for one of his albums. Yeah.. definitely not underrated.

[@michaelhayes690]

@@waltzguy14151 I read interviews with him where he was tired and hurt of being critically maligned, which becomes commonplace for popular artists. That is wrong but it often occurs. Got your back Phil!

@@mattekudasai8249 His pop fans probably haven't even heard of Brand X. He's a great musician. Minimal formal training, doesn't read music, but either did Buddy Rich. Not comparing him to Buddy, just making a comment.

[@lawrenceessex991]

Quite incredible. Phil Collins is a superb drummer and every one of the soloists in his Big Band is a top-class international player. A truly wonderful performance by everyone on stage. Video direction and mixing leave something to be desired, but at least this amazing performance is on record for the future.

[@MagnumMuscle1000]

Phil doesn't read music. He had to learn and remember all the hits and changes to Quincy's arrangement on the fly. Phil's a phenomenal musician.

[@bradhart6487]

I wish Phil had played this drumkit with Genesis - it sounds beautiful... so much more musical than the single headed thing he just stuck with from around '78 on...

[@antonio-W6]

absolutely incredible music. Had not PG left probably G would have never produced this timeless masterpiece. Thank god he left, thank god!!! I love the Mexican trumpet twist, Los endos opens to so many variations on the theme, I never forget the first time I listened to it in 1975 WOW!! It is definitely the piece I listen with much pleasure and it always puts me in a good mode. Thanks for broadcasting it!!!

He conducts the best because he is the best. Never will there be an equal or another Quincy Jones. As a trumpet player during his hay day, amature of coarse in school, His name was found in my Webster dictionary under Excellence, Under Master Composer, Under Showman and under Rhythm.

[@greg-warsaw4708]

Of course Phil used to be an exquisite, brilliant, fabulous drummer. Of course lots of people were wrong in discrediting him because of his music they thought commercial, overlooking how finely crafted and intelligent it was. But still some reflections by the late great drummer Cozy Powell seem very appropriate to me. Cozy said: I can play jazz but you could immediately tell I wasn't raised with it. Some British drummers today try to extend to that genre [seems an allusion to PC] but I think the Americans are do far ahead that we don't have a chance. So here we are: Phil drumming is brave and glorious here, but how many miles far from Tony Williams, Max Roach, Vinny Colaiuta, Dave Weckl and countless others...

[@orkycathcart6397]

YOU JUST SHOWED HOW MUCH YOU KNOW ABOUT AMAZING DRUMMERS , WHICH COLLINS FUCKING ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT FIT IN THAT CATEGORY !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@maeu59]

ORKY CATHCART Phil is a great drummer, especially what he did with Genesis, of course you can’t compare him to Weckl or the others you mentioned, but it’s fair to question how they would have played Phil’s parts with Genesis. Some Jazz players can’t cut the rock and vice versa.

Second thanks to Quincy Jones for producing and sharing this performance.Masterful it is. I feel so lucky to have been of age to experience the music of the 60s and 70s. This arrangement of a Genesis song further validates my point of how great the music of the 70s and Genesis is. Two hundred years from now , as we do with Mozart and Beethoven, generations will revel in Genesis music as we do today of those master composers of yore.
