October 19, 2005 - Maybe too many drum shots in recent days, oh well. I'm not ashamed of my Phil Collins "Phil's Choice" signature ride. Marshmallow-head that he became in later years, provoking even the ire of the South Park creators, he's still my fave drummer of all time. Jimmy Chamberlin may have changed my life when I really started playing regularly and thinking of myself as a drummer, but Phil Collins has been around a whole lot longer, and was blowing me away in those all-too-important high school years when I only wanted to be a drummer. It doesn't even matter that this ride sounds nothing like on Genesis records. If anything, it's from his 90's era big band experiment which went over like lead balloon. John Bonham would round out my top three fave drummers.
Suburban living at my parents' house. Hopefully for not too much longer.
