Phil was fantastic on drums, I’ve got early bootlegs from the ‘Selling England By the Pound’ era, very jazzy drumming for a prog band.
He also was in a band during that time called Brand X, which played more jazz-oriented rock.
just not a collins fan — Peter Gabriel was too much of the Genesis I dug (and I didn’t dig much). However, Joe Vitale (the drummer) raves about him; even cites him as a hero. I didn’t know he was in Brand X (are you sure?) but really liked their one hit, “The Streets of Soho.” You must be the guy that posted some time ago that they were more popular in the old country.
