Simon Phillips - Regarded as one of the world's most renowned and respected drummers, Simon's style not only reflects his technical gift but also his distinct musical sensibility. Whether rock, fusion, or jazz, Simon applies the same precision and intensity to his drumming, which never lacks emotion, intensity, and feel. Throughout the 1970s and 80s, Simon worked with diverse bands and artists, including Jeff Beck, Michael Schenker, Pete Townshend, Mike Oldfield, Judas Priest, Mike Rutherford, Tears for Fears, 10cc, and The Who. After Jeff Porcaro's death in 1992, he became part of the world-famous rock band Toto.
After leaving the group in 2014, Simon continued his extraordinary session career and explored new and exciting areas of the fusion and progressive rock worlds as both a drummer and producer.

#SimonPhillips #Masterclass #DrumSolo
Who needs a band when you’ve got Simon Phillips?! 😂 No party tricks. No “shorts”. Just pure musicality. A true master of the art. Thanks, Simon and Drum Channel, 🙏🏻
if you or anyone doesn't Know he played on the Judas priest Album Sin after Sin, Check it out
@@MetalHeart8787Totally. D🤘O.Accept Metal Heart 85.Fuck Yeah.D🤘O
…convinced his best work was with Duncan Browne.
he IS a band!
Simon will go down in history as one of the most musical, influental and complete drummers of all time. His level of ambidextrous control is insane. He truly is one of the GOATs.
true, him and steve smith. Of course I am aware of all zappa drumers, steve gadd and so on, but these two guys can play literally any genre with such grace.
Quel grand musicien, je me lance jamais de l’entendre, quel groove, technique exceptionnelle , dynamique, orchestration, fluidité, tout y est, il est vraiment un virtuose
Simon has the most beautiful snaredrum sound I've ever heard. And what a fine drummer he is.
Normally I would agree, and the same goes for all his toms but this red one I felt too harsh for my ear, tuned higher than my tastes. Still exquisite playing, and If I was offered this kit there's no way I would turn it down.
I thought the same - the snare is ON POINT. It’s got the precision of a ‘symphonic snare’ and the ‘throatiness’ of a rock snare; perfect.
Simon has the most beautiful drum set layout I've ever seen. He uses it so musically through his famous open-handed technique.
Been watching Simon for decades, each time is always beyond amazing. At his age to play like this with that melody still going and being soooo crisp and precise, it's just a a level where it would take most of us 17 lifetimes to obtain this guy's vocabulary and playing level. We are truly blessed to have Simon. Love how Simon stuck to his big set, and it seems even bigger, he stuck to his unique finger print and didn't conform or go to a smaller set like most trendy drummers that follow the crowds/trends. Peace
Yeah, it’s like he took what he learned from Billy Cobham and just went with it! Not a carbon copy, very very musical!
A very musical drummer...over the decades: the immortal Simon Phillips.
Yeah, he’s gotten better and better and better. He took the whole Billy Cobham thing and just went with it!
Such a technical and melodic drummer. A very rare talent
Simon's performance is brilliant as always. The triple snare is unique.
Simon is an incredible player.
A real treat to watch.He knows his stuff.
I love Simon Phillips. Dude is a BEAST! So smooth and fluid. He makes it look effortless. Going to see Toto again in a couple weeks. Man, I wish he was still with them. Jeff Porcaro was a groove master. I love Jeff. What Simon did with those songs was masterful. He made them his own while paying tribute to Jeff's original parts.
A real Master !! And his snare and toms sounds amazing as always. Toms so open and clean. Snare tuning...perfekt to my ears 😊
"Simon, how many rack toms?"
Simon: Yes!!
Out of this world, always musical and a technical masterpiece
Simon is just the full package. A master on the kit, musicality that has been world class for decades and the best example of a true professional.
His drum sound is very distinctive. Always fantastic
I could watch and especially HEAR Simon playing for hours and it wouldn’t be boring one single second! 😍
Holy smokes, what an amazing Drum Solo he played 😍🙏
Thank you for uploading it, I will watch that clip probably every single day the next weeks 🥴
All the best from Germany 🇩🇪, Philipp 👋
There is a little Bozzio and Cobham in this solo. The drums sound amazing too.
Not to mention the Tony Williams inescapable influence.
The exceptional hand speed and independent use of all four limbs is apparent throughout the years of Simon Phillips' drumming career. He is a very consistent and versatile drummer, and anyone who he has performed with will attest to that. I have been working on my independence since I have been forced to learn to because of the size of my kit. That was the driving force behind Simon's open handed drumming style. You can see that he can lead with either hand, or foot, and the way he uses his left hand on the ride cymbal too. This is the man to take lessons from if you really want to perfect your skills.
Listening Simon since 1978 ...He is the greatest drummer of all times
Love his unique style. Perfect timing, as always
Dynamics masterclass
I always loved listening to Simon's drumming ❣️ I always thought that he brought a unique feel to the timing. Always crisp and upbeat ❤
He sonically paints with drums. Very few drummers do that. He uses the skins as his pallet 🎨
That snare! What a sound! What a Groove of every drum! More of a Drummer… a real musician…. Great!
Nobody reaches Simon Phillips. He allways have the best sounding drums and the most tastefull drumsolos. His drums are singing and swinging🤩
Brilliant as always Simon, spacing and dynamics are amazing, love it. Just purchased your signature sticks and love the feel. Thanks for all you do.
Simon Phillips is completely DYNAMITE!!
I don't like drum solos. I loved this. The dynamics, finesse and pure chops on display, but always keeping a sense of groove and musicality is just unmatched.
it's all great, the playing, the musicality, the percussion, beautiful combination with Simon
Awesome , I had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Phillips and his band live in concert several years ago and was blown away by his performance as well of his band . Simply amazing !!!
Always a treat to hear Simon, both solo as here and with bands like Protocol or the many famous ones he has been a fundament in.
To me he paints a story with his solos 🎨. There are a few videos out there where he is with other drummers using minimal setups and the result is mesmerizing 🥁
Thank you Drum Channel for showing the mic setup. I have been curious for a long time to hear Phillips' drums mic'd this way.
I love his work on the first Michael Schenker album
Always so tasteful!
I can watch him all day long.
Mestre dos mestres.....cara ele é muito musical...
Não é desses barulhentos que só mostram velocidade e
Gospel chips.....
Thankyou Drum Channel.
Man muss ihn lieben.Möge die Macht noch lange mit ihm sein!
Simply the best !
That's got to be one of my favourite drum solos by Mr. Phillips, so 'understated' so when he does something incredible it really stands out!
One if the best of our times
Entice us with another signature snare, please, Simon. It's been a while... You must have had some ideas... Absolutely adored the Gladiator and Monarch. I alwas enjoy your intricate yet musical approach. Entirely unique - That's you!
Just another day in the office. Simply THE KING. Best sounding drums in the market.
I truly appreciate the inspiration provided.
Thanks so much for sharing!
"Happy Drumming"
Every stroke sounds/feels so nice, so even - be it singles, doubles, or even triples in each hand. Excellent
truly remarkable
Just brilliant Simon...He's on another level....Plus comes across as a genuine nice guy😊
Perfection! Beautiful!
Thats a classy drum performance. Simons dynamics are impeccable! And of course drawn out of one hell of a drumkit/ cymbal set!!
Wonderful!
Sensei Master🥁✔️
Beautiful solo.
Amazing skills💜
Masterclass is the word.
Musical and tasteful drumming with that kind of tones only Simon can execute. Great solo from the Master.
Totally awesome drummer!
Amazing performance 👏🏻
True MASTERCLASS👌🏼
Fantastic, as usual!!!
Insane!
Breathtaking..
Outstanding solo Simon
Best ever❤
New Simon Phillips video lets go
Simon Phillips drum solos are more than just chops and fills. He’s got a definite musicality to his solos, finesse, speed, dynamics. Other drummers who also exude these sensibilities are Steve Smith, Jojo Mayer, Todd Sucherman amongst a host of others….Too cool👍😎🤘🤙👊Respect from Fiji 🇫🇯
Che spettacolo🏆
All I can say is... his sneakers are "conversing" with the drumset... wine-tone-wise:) Silly dad jokes apart, what a breathtaking display of pure, unmatched artistry!
Awesome performance great sounding kit. Delicious!!
Idol since my very first touches on drums…mostly loved for taking on legacy of mister jeff porcaro!
Simon reminds me somehow with Tony Williams , in other words , communicatively, in a completely natural way , which is amazing ! I suppose this approach can be thought of for drummers of all abilities 👍
Simon often cites Tony as an influence :)
Been listening to PhD and thought I'd investigate the obviously talented drummer and here we are and wow.
A true drummer who’s playing does the talking no BS theatrics or roller coasters no names mentioned
Fantastic 👌👌👌👌
Simon Phillips is not just a drummer, he is a musician. His solos, and his playing are not motivated by super speed whit zero musical meaning, like most of the youtube or tik tok drummers this days (AKA el estapario siberiano), au contraire, he is beyond that and plays music, which is rich in tonalityes and most of all, dynamics.
I've been watching him for many years and to watch him playing with many people like Lee Ritenauer, Hiromi trio (probably my favorite collaboration of Simon) or the last Protocol album its every time such a pleasure for the senses. Watch him playing is to watch how he moves, how he gestures and how he sound (probably the best sounding drum kit ever) and the result every time is a master piece of pure high quality music.
Bello/Magnifico.👑👑👑👑👑👑💪
801 Live is the first time I discovered Simon as I was a fan of Phil Manzanera of Roxy Music. Still one of my favorite performances by Mr.Phillips. Tomorrow Never Knows - incredible!
god blessed simon
That was enjoyable
MASTER !
Thx
❤🤩🥁🔥🔥🔥
❤❤❤❤❤
No hay nada más bonito que disfrutar de lo que más te gusta🤘🤘🤘por muchos años y que yo los vea🤘🤘💪💪
The 4 limb coordination is insane.
Show !
Influência foda!❤
❤❤❤
He’s a very good engineer too.
I want to be Simon Phillips when I grow up!
Style, tecnique and creativity at the highest level.
Играет , как бог! Учит нас как нужно играть на инструменте!
I would love to know how this was recorded. Mics and such. It sounds amazing! Simon is so musical. Enjoyed every second of this.
2019 Drum Bonanza, what a time. Thomas Lang, Simon Phillips, Luke Holland and Terry Bozzio.
drummer luar biasa 👍❤👍
Hombre ver tocar bateria, hombre ser feliz 🎉
Hombre tocar bateria, hombre ser muy feliz 🎉🎉🎉🎉
The only true virtuoso among world-class drummers. Maybe you can also mention Benny Greb. But everyone else can only shred. It's all about speed and rhythms that are as complex as possible. Simon Philips, however, masters the game with dynamics, speed and volume like no other. It's always a pleasure to listen to him.
Terry Bozzio has entered the discussion......
Oh, and Todd Sucherman
Please check Mr. Gavin Harrison soon...
And I add the super talented Icelandic drummer Gulli Briem to this list. Agree that most contamporary drummers are more or less only shredders, which is not very interesting.
David Weckl is the one, even the Greats look up to. He is a solid tier above Benny.
Baião nos pés!!!
🔥🙏🏻
