In 1996 drummer / singer Phil Collins toured Europe with his own big band conducted by Quincy Jones and guest singer Tony Bennett. He repeated that two years later with a tour of Europe and America. Some of those shows were recorded, the best of which can be heard on A Hot Night In Paris. Strongly influenced by Buddy Rich, Collins plays songs from Genesis (Invisible Touch, Los Endos Suite), himself
… (Sussudio, Against All Odds) and Miles Davis (Milestones), which have been arranged by various arrangers. Collins limits himself to drumming; his voice can only be heard during the announcements between songs. (WvdZ)more
