I adore Mr Sir Phil Collins Esquire. Here, once again, Phil is so 'guy next door'. A legend. Great humour in this great segment. Al Murray is excellent. Thank you Phil for all the brilliance you have brought us all through the years.
Not many people can say they have played drums with Phil Collins, 1 person, in the entire planet, can say, they have played a pub, with the man, the legend, mr Phil Collins
And, believe it or not, he is the third best selling performer in history after Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney. In the 80's, everything Phil touched turned to gold. Including his historical Live Aid performance - the only artiste to perform both stages UK and USA.... the same day.
Should put the drum bit in it's own video, as much as I love Phil in an interview just "Phil Collins drum duet with the Pub Landlord" would get a lot of extra views.
Not really actually his final drum performance would be at Prince's Trust 2010 where he would play the song Crossroads with Eric Clapton and his band. And that would be after his operation on his wrist. He wouldn't get his back operation until 2015 which is why he's currently walking with a cane today unfortunately 😔
Phil Collins absolute legend, i remember him on top of the pops with a gallon of paint by his side apparently it was a dig at his Mrs who had an affair with the decorator.
This was filmed in 2008 around the same time when Phil's left hand was giving him problems to the point to where he can't drum anymore. because he said in an interview that the problems begin in 2007 which affected his drumming. But he did pretty good here but not dropping the stick. It's a shame because Phil was such a talented drummer back in his prime and possibly one of the best drummers in the world. It's a shame that his talent was cut so short.
Agreed. The guy has had stellar success, millionaire and well regarded by fellow professionals (I'll leave Noel Gallagher out of that context) but for all this, you cannot buy health. I recon he would give it all up to still be himself, and to be able to play. Seen him last few days on TV and he looks like he has had a stroke - its more than his hands. Very sad.
@morbidmanmusic Bitter, arrogrant, uninformed commenters are so tiring. 🤦🏻♀️(Yes, I've seen the negative comments you've peppered along the way here.) Like it or not, Phil is considered drumming royalty across the board, from fans who have never picked up a drum stick to musical experts and icons. Looks like you consider that a bitter pill. Just swallow the pill and move on. Peace, dude. ✌️
Rick Allen of Def Leppard has been playing drums with only one arm since 1984. Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath lost the tips of two of his fingers at age 17 and has continued to play guitar for the next 56 years, so far (inspired by Django Reinhardt).
@@hedgehog1965uk Yes but they were both relative young at the time, so they could adapt easier and had the time and health. Phil was already in his late 50's when his problems started to really impact him. He also has serious back problems from drumming, which is why he's seated during Genesis's current tour. :-)
Buddy Rich is he considered a bit naff now? When I was learning I thought he was awesome. No one else agreed or knew who he was…, ok it was really old stuff. My drum teacher was in JoJo Gun, ( modern jazz) again no one else heard of him, but I looked up to him like a messiah, a god
Buddy rich naff……. Not in my opinion and I’m sure that of any other drummer who’s ever picked up a pair of sticks. He may not be your favourite drummer but when you witness a genius you can only appreciate and enjoy.
Anyone who knows anything about drumming has heard of Buddy Rich. I can't think of single drummer living or dead to match him. Most of today's drummers look like rank amateurs by comparison.
From an interview with Orianne Collins: on the court filings not only include allegations that Collins abused pain killers, but a detailed account of the squalor he fell into, including claims that he stopped brushing his teeth and refused to shower for almost a year. In those documents Orianne says the smell became unbearable and that by 2019, he was incapable of having sex. She claimed: "Philips’s stench became so pervasive that he became a hermit, refusing to interact personally with any people."
What people forget is his hit song " Another day in paradise" about homelessness was a big hit, then , while living in Switzerland ( presumably to avoid paying British taxes) he used the London police ,at British tax payers expense, to remove homeless people from his unoccupied property ,sheer hypocrisy!
That's not hypocrisy. If they were on his property then at the very least they were trespassing, possibly guilty of squatting and breaking and entering. All of which makes them criminals, they weren't just homeless people. What is hypocrisy, is wrongly calling this out, while I'd bet you don't let homeless people stay in your house while you're not there, do you? Didn't think so.
@@georgegray6267 It's still not hypocrisy but you still are hypocritical. How exactly would he use the Swiss Police (or any other) to get criminals out of his UK property? Don't bother trying to answer that, it'll just be a stupid. I have no doubt he lives there partly for tax purposes but you're just being pathetic and idiotic.
Love Al Murray can't stand Phil Collins..... Timmy!!! Told his wife by fax he was divorcing her and left her for a younger model. Hope she striped him in the settlement. Phil is a Great drummer though. Superb on the Brand X album.

2:33 - "so you quit music to rejoin Genesis last year..." still gets me.
God Phil is such a down to earth fella. Al was great in this interview.
Not many people can say they have played drums with Phil Collins,
1 person, in the entire planet, can say, they have played a pub, with the man, the legend, mr Phil Collins
That pub drumming part is legendary!
Brilliant ! Phil Collins is such a great sport, great musician and a member of a great band
My god, this was SO good. Two of my favourite guys and a wonderful close.
"he'll be out soon" well played, Collins
💙 Phil played a pub!!! It was bloody fantastic!!😂 lol 👍👏
The drums fucking fantastic
Wicked interview from the Pub Landlord with one of the best Phil Collins..👍💯❤
You can have a problem with his solo catalogue and as a longtime Genesis fan, I do but you cannot not love Phil. Great guy.
That's just put the biggest smile on my face 😊, Phil and al playing the pub. Genius.
One of the finest drummers ever. And Phil Collins!
without dout
oh stop it.
And, believe it or not, he is the third best selling performer in history after Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney. In the 80's, everything Phil touched turned to gold. Including his historical Live Aid performance - the only artiste to perform both stages UK and USA.... the same day.
Neil Peart. Sorry. No I'm not.
Keith moon , cozy Powell ,Simon Kirk ,John bonham to name a few .
Love Phil's great sense of humor. Great interview.
Al, you astonish me with your talent. What a performance.
one of the many great musicians i've left too late to see playing live..... Awesome.
Al Murray reveals his hidden talent as a damned good drummer!! I never knew!!
The Drumming was just WICKED! Cheers guys ;-)
OMG, this is the best Phil Collins interview ever!!!!!!
That, Mr Murray, is F***ing awsome!! 🙌
You lucky lucky lucky bastard!!
Great stuff phil seems relaxed ..he's a legend love him❤❤❤❤
Al Murray is a huge Genesis fan in real life, so this must have been a lot of fun for him...
Indeed. It's one thing to meet someone you admire that much but add performing a percussion duet with them and it reaches a whole new level.
That drumming in the end was great!
Timely post. Still one of the best.
Phil is the most funny musician I´ve ever meet! And I have meet a few or three......
I agree top drummers 💯👏👏👏👏🏴👍
absolutely brilliant 👏
What a legend Phil
So fun! Thank you!
Been waiting for this clip for years
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant improvisation. Loved it. JANBOY. RN. Rtd.
Just loved it to bits, Absolutely stunning, thank you 👍😃
Wonderful
One of the top three drummer singers of all time.
Don't be a fool. You have no clue. Like I thought all you want, but stop that ignorant fan drivel.
Still the best!
Fantastic.✌️
That was a brilliant piece of theatre just goes to show what you can achieve with an Oxford education!
What a great Show! Al was Great and so was Mr Collins. This bit is always so awesome
Awesome!!!
Excellent 🥁
One of The Best Ever To Hold A Stick.God Bless You Sir Phil
Fanks
2 x legends for real
Awesome: thanks
Omg that was amazing
Should put the drum bit in it's own video, as much as I love Phil in an interview just "Phil Collins drum duet with the Pub Landlord" would get a lot of extra views.
It’s a Christmas No.1- Jingle Kegs😅
This is Awesome!
Absolutely fucking fantastic
Recorded in 2008 probably one of Phil's last drumming performances before his operation
Not really actually his final drum performance would be at Prince's Trust 2010 where he would play the song Crossroads with Eric Clapton and his band. And that would be after his operation on his wrist. He wouldn't get his back operation until 2015 which is why he's currently walking with a cane today unfortunately 😔
That was just awesome :D
Really really freat fun 😄
Sadly phil's health has gotten worse since this interview. Brilliant guy and what a drummer and musician..
Reckon al gave him a dodgy guiness.
8:45 👍
Phil Collins absolute legend, i remember him on top of the pops with a gallon of paint by his side apparently it was a dig at his Mrs who had an affair with the decorator.
Brilliant😅
Absolutely epic, proper tickled me pickle
Brilliant pub playing When is the Album out?😝

Genesis were meant to tour in 2008 as well but Phil refused to do it, despite it being booked provisionally
@@Spartanm333 nothing wrong with Noel Gallagher
He was never one of the best in the world. Stop it.
He is just one you know.

Fkn ace!♠
This video should have a date on it.
Quit music and re joined Genesis 😂
Al was pretty good at the drumming!!!
Well he's also a drummer so was bound to have some sense of rhythm
When was this interview ?To see Phil now it’s heartbreaking .
I think it mustve been 2007 08 as he sed he was 57👍
@@jamesgallagher1992 I was thinking circa 2005. So thank you James G.
How I wish he was still in that shape...
You quit music to rejoin Genesis again...🤣
I would not have guessed how funny and lightning quick Phil Collins's humour would be.
First aired in 2008.
Phil and john bonham what a combination. I know they respected each other
No mention of Phil Collins the Alamo aficionado, artifact collector, book author, and honorary Texan?
Phil, the 'little' ginger bloke wasn't by any chance my old mate Gordon?? :D
Phil sounding so serious at the beginning of the interview, etc Relax. Al was only having a laugh. It's that kind of show.
Missed that part ?
Phil was having the craic throughout.
the reason Phil doesn't play anymore is because he is unable to grip the stick with one of his hands, so he has sadly had to hang up his kit
Must be some f#### hook then

The last time Phil publicly played drums.

@@garethparr9482 well I still think he is awesome
@@garethparr9482 Gene Krupa?
@@richardsracingmad well buddy learned from gene Krupa who himself was an excellent drummer. But buddy had the edge

he is a brillant singer but this was 23 years a go
2008, so thirteen years ago
😅
This is from 2008.
Bloody hell, Queen have changed a lot.
This is an old video as Collins is now 70 years old.
Nothing gets by you does it?
The pub landlord was just Al Murray doing Jonny Vaughan really
Kin brill.
Last time I've seen Phil he was in bad shape glad to see him fit and fine again.
This was filmed about 13 years ago I think! (PC said he was 57 in the interview) - he’s 70 now
@@MrGreatplum Ohh. What a pity. Never mind. That's means he is not in that great shape. Thanks for letting me know even if the think is not plausible.
Bad observation skills eh?
Maybe it is my bad.@@morbidmanmusic

Those digs about Phil's very expensive divorces were a bit naughty

Who cares🥱 what she says!
All of that was made up. She just was trying to get more money out of him. All lies.
Ask him if he's talking Nonce Sense..

Poor old Phil Collins, he had 5 or 6 hit records...
But, everyone just thinks of him as a very , very posh guy with a cockney accent?
Well he stood apart from the other guys in genesis he had a different upbringing and the others were public school educated
@@rickykilby4672 he went to Chiswick Grammar School so he was probably the most intelligent.
@@rickykilby4672 Yes, he did.
Love Al Murray can't stand Phil Collins..... Timmy!!! Told his wife by fax he was divorcing her and left her for a younger model. Hope she striped him in the settlement. Phil is a Great drummer though. Superb on the Brand X album.
Utter embarrassment.
So annoying and unfunny. Credit to Phil for not walking away from this.
Waste of an interview
That drumming in the end was great!
