Phil talks about on how the drum duets on Genesis work, and how they've evolved. Includes the practice of the famous stool drum duet as played on the last Genesis tour.
2 of the best ever. This will not be seen again and we are lucky to have witnessed. I hope he and Phil are able to mend fences life is short. They did some amazing things together.
I'd love to feel it, just one more time. I know I saw it many, many times and I know it's impossible now, but please just one more time. Please. Oh the joy I got every concert when this bit happened. Ride on brothers in rhythm, ride on. Love you both.
What a valuable recording for The Future. So glad that made the DVD of the Show Prep for their 2007 Tour. Talk about an inside view....and clearly when they are laughing is the best. MASTER CLASS
People who are not drummers. . Or who don't understand drumming . . . just don't realise that that drum duet - in the minds of the two players - is as distinctive and as memorable as any 'famous' guitar solo, or song line. . . They know and remember and understand EVERY sixteenth note of that ENTIRE duet as easily as you can remember and sing some two or three verses of a song you know. . Brilliant!
That's marvellous! We finally get to see Mr Thompson and Mr Collins drumming on this famous padded stool, which Phil Collins talked about so often in his interviews. It's good exercise/ good practice to 'trash out' and highlight any differences. "It's good to be practice perfect ". Two great drummers - you complement and compliment each other. Nice Italian accent there, Phil. Multifaceted and multilingual.
Wow. How can you 'dislike' this? Two drum talents riffing on a footstool like bosses? That's so badass. So glad TH-cam dragged me down this rabbit hole.
fantastic insight to how they did there duets, I am fortunate to have seen them many times, always enjoyed Phil's drum sound with the open concert toms.
Phil Collins and Chester Thompson poetry in motion baby they are the picture of brilliant Phil Collins is a true musical genius his beat will go on forever
WOW...........!!!!!!! Hypnotic!!! You know I've always preferred Bruford and Collins interactions for their abstract/jazzness. BUT I think I finally get the spirit of Thompson and Collins. This is definitely more drum circle inspired and the call and response is so intense it really sucks you in and keeps you rivoted!! BRAVO!!!
You can imagine staying in the room next to where these two are slapping away for hours and thinking...that's it! I'm gonna give that a-hole an earful...only to find out that it's Phil and Chester, possibly the best ever drum duo to grace a stage simultaneously...humbling, would not suffice.
Imagine being in the next room! “ who do they think they are? Phil Collins and Chester Thompson???” So sad that they fell out and hope they are both ok… x
Nah, Spinal Tap would be to have an abolutely HUGGGGEEEEEEEEEEE drumkit for BOTH of them in that tiny room, and then on stage it's a snare, high-hat and kick only by mistake.
SAW THEM PERFORM A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT VERSION LIVE IN 1986 IN OAKLAND CALIFORNIA FOR THE INVISIBLE TOUCH TOUR. IT WAS THE MOST AMAZING THING I HAVE EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE! THERE IS A RECORDING OF THEM PERFORMING THE VERSION I'M TALKING ABOUT FROM WEMBLEY STADIUM IN CONCERT. IF YOU CAN FIND THIS VIDEO.... IT'S THE BEST THING YOU WILL EVER HEAR IN YOUR LIFE, AND YOU WILL BE IN RHYTHM HEAVEN!
Happy as a clam! Two amazing percussionists In the practice zone creating new bits. DD. #genesisofficial #philcollinsofficial #rockhall2024 😀☮️❤🎼🥁🥁🔊🎶🎵🤘
Je ne comprends pas l’anglais, mais je sens bien la recherche musicale et cette complicité est vraiment belle à voir, Phil Nº1 et Phil perfectionniste que dire de Chester il me fascine sa facilité son adaptation..... batteur phénoménal 🎶
Okay so you 12 (!) individuals don't like that? Just try to replicate that only one time in ernest and you will understand what this is all about. Sadly we will never see these two seasoned masters again like that.

Two of the worlds very best drummers. They even make a footstall sound better than most drummers can manage on a drumkit!
Phil Collins + Chester Thompson + Drumsticks = magic. So amazing to get some more insight behind these two magicians, thank you!
Watching them 2 play this was the highlight of the gig! I was a 19 year old girl crying because I got to Chester and Phil play in 2007!!
What a valuable recording for The Future. So glad that made the DVD of the Show Prep for their 2007 Tour. Talk about an inside view....and clearly when they are laughing is the best. MASTER CLASS
Chester is the unsung hero for genesis he is the only drummer who can sound like Phil but had is own identity as a drummer

Drums are just beats, there's no melody so you cant compare it to guitar solos haha
Two of the best drummers....with just an stool...in the hotel-room...
...ABSOLUTELY PRICELESS !!
Absolutely fascinating the way that you are both in tune with each other x
That's marvellous!

Thank you, Chester and Thank you, Phil!
two amazing drummers !
To say the least
Simply awesome! They're like twins whose two brains are connected with each other in perfect sync.
Khrisna Mokoginta ...right on!
Wow. How can you 'dislike' this? Two drum talents riffing on a footstool like bosses? That's so badass. So glad TH-cam dragged me down this rabbit hole.
Incredible to watch Phil and Chester work on their routines what an amazing combination
Seen the duet live in the early nineties. Amazing!
fantastic insight to how they did there duets, I am fortunate to have seen them many times, always enjoyed Phil's drum sound with the open concert toms.

OMG - sitting and drumming with another drummer on a stool like that, for like 10 minutes, is just heaven!!!!! ❤️
Two masters of their craft showing how it's done with anything that is available!!!
Wow that was a great intimate moment of two great musicians.
First album I ever owned as a kid Phil Collins Face Value. Still listen to it at least once every 2 weeks to this very day!
It's Rubbish. Boring as Fuck.
Alan Hogan nice trolling...i am sure your albums are better???
Gênio não há outro igual o2 03 de 2021 12hs lindo
Great drum stuff...as a drummer i can listen this over and over...35 years! 👍

This is definitely more drum circle inspired and the call and response is so intense it really sucks you in and keeps you rivoted!! BRAVO!!!
What's funny is these two sound better hammering on a stool than some live drummers do on a full kit.
Two of the best Drummers ever....and an Stool...nothing more!
You can imagine staying in the room next to where these two are slapping away for hours and thinking...that's it! I'm gonna give that a-hole an earful...only to find out that it's Phil and Chester, possibly the best ever drum duo to grace a stage simultaneously...humbling, would not suffice.
Because 1 is left handed and the other is right handed this goes very well. Thanks for sharing this video.
Crazy how muscle memory works. You can see them moving their feet as if there are pedals to press.
I think the duet for their 2007 tour was the very best they ever came up with.
Phil and Chester are the masters of drum beat patterns!
If you ever saw these wonderful drummers in action ,you would just say wow.
I just did
Ha ha.of course.touche
Been lucky enough to have seen them several times
Awesome.....I saw those two do a drum duet at a Genesis concert in Glasgow in the late 70's...mind blowing!
Great drummers and great artists.
Imagine being in the next room! “ who do they think they are? Phil Collins and Chester Thompson???” So sad that they fell out and hope they are both ok… x
Excellent, that stool is now worth millions :)
Fact: Phil had actually bought that stool from the hotel to use it for his Genesis concert
Chester, you are the man!! Phil, you are good too! ;)
This ranks among the top fifty Best Things Ever
True colors black and white two greats friends till 1976
Nothing like being on the same page....these guys are my idols!!!!
THE BEST IN THE WORLD CHESTER AND PHIL !!!
Wow... My body is dancing
Thanks for sharing this video
Chester Thompson has to mimic Phil Collins drum parts PERFECTLY in the video for "I Don't Care Anymore".

Ich Liebe Phil,seit 1986.Und ich liebe Chester.Fast Genau so lang ❤💕💖
Timeless brilliance!!!
From 1:58 to 7:13 it's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo funny! I really love it!
Everyone should listen to his drum duet with his son Simon Collins on Simon's album 'U-Castrophe' called 'The Big Bang'. Awesome track.
Great drummer thankssss bravo 🤗 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome ottoman jam! How fun!! 🥁💕
A golden memory recorded.
The stool part is the best moment of the documentary. Very Spinal Tap....
Nah, Spinal Tap would be to have an abolutely HUGGGGEEEEEEEEEEE drumkit for BOTH of them in that tiny room, and then on stage it's a snare, high-hat and kick only by mistake.

@Robbo
I saw them in 20xx in Düsseldorf on a drum duet; quite 30+ years later. Still mind blowing!
That's how you do it Bros...Bravo....!!!
All these years of playing Taiko Drum Master on my PlayStation 2 and there's a learning curve to being just as good as Phil and Chester.
WoW that was Awesome!!!!
Je ne comprends pas l’anglais, mais je sens bien la recherche musicale et cette complicité est vraiment belle à voir, Phil Nº1 et Phil perfectionniste que dire de Chester il me fascine sa facilité son adaptation..... batteur phénoménal 🎶
