I'm an audiophile and a drummer (kinda). I absolutely cherish this music and Simon's drumming. I was a bit depressed when Simon parted ways with Toto, but one door closes and another opens. It just means he has more time to be involved in other endevours (like this). Keep it coming Simon - you are brilliant!...and your supporting cast aren't too bad either haha. Cheers!
Pareil pour moi!!!
@@fredbob7521 Tres bien mon ami!
So glad Simon keeps making Protocol albums. They are my fave!!!!!!
Man that drumkit sounds great in that studio. The whole band has such a sharp tight sound. Love seeing the younger guys so enthusiastic and jamming out with the seasoned guys. So much talent in this group. Would love to see live one day!
Amazing project ! Thank you Simon !
Aren`t we all lucky to have these wonderful musicians around?
BRAVO, SIMON,ERNEST,OTMARO,
JACOB,AND ALEX!!
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this album. Despite the music being hard and complex it’s rich with emotion. Not many artists are able to strike that balance. Wonderful video, too. Thanks, Simon.
Great to have this peek behind the scenes. This is such a great line up and the album is joyous. I can't wait to see the band live again.......
Earz Are Smiling SOOO BIG !!! Love the Matheny changes , Sirs! Drums always recorded so richly, deep as my ears can go. Keep it coming Mr. P.(old guy like me)
this entire album is brilliant musically. not only from a compositional standpoint, but from a "Sounds and feels great to the ear and heart" standpoint. great mix. and great tones. Im inspired every time I listen to Protocol.
Freaking awesome.... Can't stop listening to this album.
It my go to.... Thanks Simon and crew for making this.
BRILLIANT! It was so cool to learn that everyone 'got into music' as I did. Seven years of classical Piano starting at age 4, moved on to Trumpet for middle and high school, picking up drums (self taught) from there. Played in a very good 'progressive rock' band for several years. LOVE IT! Thanks, Simon.
Thank you for all you do and have done Simon. Beautiful music once again.
That drum sound is pure perfection. It would sound perfect for jazz, metal, pop, you name it. Insane.
A real tour de force. Jagannath and this track are the pinnacles of a remarkable record. LOVE IT. Music with a huge M. Food for thought.
This is the Best Protocol CDs ever... Just downloaded the album ... My godness.. I have all the SImon Phillips CDS including the traditional Jazz he did with Jeff Babko... Great music
Great video dear Simon! It is beautiful and very interesting to see how an album is built and how it is received by other musicians! I hope that soon there will be the possibility to buy the charts of this fantastic album! Wonderful work! My compliments to all the members of the band! 🙏🎸🎸🎸🎹🎹🎹🥁🥁🥁🎶🎶🎶🎶
What a wonderful film. I was privileged to see the band perform twice on Cruise to the Edge a few weeks ago and it was definitely the musical (and spiritual!) highlight of the cruise. Such immense musicianship playing music that takes the listener on a journey and leaves you in a higher place, believing that with art like this there is hope for the world. At times I had tears in my eyes. It was so moving and beautiful to hear live. I immediately bought the album on my return and am enjoying it immensely. it was also great to chat with Simon on the boat on a couple of occasions, which was a thrill as he's been my favourite drummer (actually I should say musician) for the past 40 years plus. I like the Art Blakey comparison and remember seeing Art many years ago with a young band. This is music that will live on and inspire many for years to come. Thank you Simon!
Great game everyone! I am a drummer, our group fell apart in 2002, because of the time when they began to drive music in Belarus. After all, music lives only in a free country. Good luck to you! Keep creating masterpieces!👍❤️
Absolutely awesome documentary Mr. Phillips. The album is amazing!!! And this new band of musicians are all top shelf!!
GREAT little documentary! Thanks!
I love this latest Protocol album so much. The band is such a wonderful "unit" now, working so brilliantly together, inspiring each other and the listener. The 1 + 1 = 3 arithmetic of Alex and Jacob playing in unison shines so bright. I'm confident this album will continue to enthral, fascinate and excite me for years to come. Bravo Simon and all the band members!
Heck, YEAH!!! Thank you so much gentlemen! 🙏 This music sounds freakin-tastic! 👌 Best wishes! ❤️
Excellent video. Excellent record. Excellent directing, concept & execution. 10/10
Simon, this is a great band. I go back when you were the Drummer for the rocks pebbles and sand project with Stanley Clarke. I have been a Fan for over 40 years. The Protocol bands projects are great bands. A very orchestrated tight sound. Similar to the Chick Corea Electric band sound. Thank you Sir for this great music.
Wonderful view behind the stage. Music is brilliant as always. But now much more personal thx to the interviews and explanations. Thx very much, Simon!
Absolutely love the Protocol V album. I've been practicing to a couple of tunes from it, such beautiful angles in which to bend the beat around!
I've always had the utmost respect for those who can play jazz well, but never really got into it. Then comes along Protocol V and WOW! I am really into it. GREAT music!!!!!
this just blows my mind! I've become a Zappa fan over the years and this reminds me of the genius in his compositions. I never considered jazz, but have really developed a love of its complexity in time. lastly , this is my hometown and studio i enjoy doing productions at.
These three video's are Wonderfull. I LOVE IT. Great performance and recording. These drums sound wonderful; the tuning, the rumbling toms and also the " live". recording. A new step in sound engineering. I saw your performance last Sunday at the Boerderij, Zoetermeer, Holland and it was great. Also your pronouncation of the word BOERDERIJ 🙂 Great musicians thanks.
Simon has been my 'God" since '77 ... and this latest band is just amazing !!
Sensational video and musicianship - this line up just nails it and will be around for years I hope
Wonderful record, Simon and Protocol! 👍 Great to look behind the scenes
Fantastic ! Thank you so much Simon for your music ! ...inspiring me always !
It's been a long time since my soul flew like this. Thanks Simon.
merci Simon de nous emporter dans ton univers de musique de passion et de perfection!
Incredible music! I hope you tour in 23!
Simon, great video piece. Love the band. But in the end it's your playing that always interests me the most. Most likely because I'm a drummer.
Bravo
My girlfriend and I saw you and the band yesterday live at the Boerderij. Absolutely sensational!!
This is really out of this world in every possible sense...!!! Amazing!!!!
What a killer track, each member of this band razor sharp. Phillips just delivers. Most exciting 5 piece since Chick Corea Electric Band.
Awesome .. awesome video! Love the behind the scenes stuff, amazing!
I found out 2 weeks too late that Protocol iv was coming to New Hope Pa last year....still very much regret missing that show....but I did see Earnest Tibbs perform with Allan Holdsworth at Blend in Ridgewood NJ some years ago...loved Simon on the 1989 Who tour in Philly...😁
Fantastic!!!
What a talent... keep sharing the love, your musicality and pushing us into new frontiers and stretch our musical boundaries. Kudos to you all. You are all an inspiration. Please come to Portugal 🇵🇹 🙏 and visit us
Solid!! Big Digs!! Cheers!!;-)!!
So, about three years ago I finally admitted to myself that I listened to drums mostly and preferred music that had hard-hitting bass drums in the mix. So, when I found my end-game loudspeakers, the ADS 910, with dual-10" bass drivers built into their own enclosures in the cabinets, one of the first albums I played through them was the first Protocol album. When Mr. Phillips hit the bass and kick drums and I had the volume cranked a bit, it felt like the concrete foundation was going to crack. Now, these 910s, just like most of the ADS L-series two and three-way loudspeakers are known for their very neutral presentation, which I agree they do present that, and really, it's just that the 910s bring every drop of bass output from the source into the room.
Anyway, I just want to say that every one of the Protocol albums has been exactly what I crave in prog-rock/jazz albums, and the Protocol V is extremely well-produced and I can hear the upgraded resolution. Thanks for such great recordings to Simon Phillips and all the musicians in the band.
Where can I get a pair of those 910s?
Friendships Simon ! wonderful music ! since 1980 i listen your drumming ! (i am 1st National price of TAMA school with DANIEL PICHON and Alain Gozzo (France) .in 1989and four other price drums and classical percussions) ...i have played with a lot of musician (Rhoda Scott /jazz, Guy N' Sangué (bass with Jean Luc Ponty) Etienne M"Bappe , Thierry Mineau (album PARIS with Billy Cobham) and other artist ! you are ,for me a great master ! best vibrations for you !
Saw the boys perform this album from front to back in Oakland at Yoshi’s. Never heard the tunes before…….really really great. Hope Simon got his original Tama Gong drum back. The stand-in sounded great!
Hope the Cosmopolitan was tasty Simon?
Passage To Agra next time please.🤞
Yes, that was a terrific night!
I can hardly wait for this record to come out! PS, please come to New Zealand some time soon!
That was so enjoyable! Thank you
it is such a great record, I keep listening to it. Great stuff indeed!
Great music for demanding ears!
😎 I absolutely love what I’m hearing here, and sonically so beautifully recorded 🔥
This is a whole new level...thanks for all the dedication to perfection...
Magic!!!!

I saw Simon when he played in a band called "Chopyn" supporting ELO in 1975 in Leeds. Their album was called " Grand Slam" check it out. Ann O'Dell was in the band.
By the way, I didn't know Maradona was on keyboards 😁
Hi Simon Phillips. 🙂👍
You still haven’t done a Neil Peart tribute
Found a sax in grand parents garage. That is God leading you the way. Open the door!
Comprato il disco!
👍👌
kind of hard to find words to describe the emotions while listening to it.
Off topic, but anyway.......are you still racing cars.....vintage?
Hes voice is like sleeping pill😴😴😁😁🇫🇮🇫🇮🤟🤟
Love this body of work and do hear the Pat Metheny overtones. It reminds me also of Dave McKay, an example of which can be found at ua-cam.com/video/-jXV3jk8PhE/v-deo.html
Super! Thanks!
✌️🤠💥🌟🌀🌐
