One of the greatest drummers on the planet !
Simon has been one of my favourite drummers since I was a kid
Mr. Phillips and Steve Smith are 2 of my biggest percussion inspirations!!!
The master at work. Grew up with Simon. He's just such a genius and nice guy!
Visto live sia yeff che simon come i toto live stratosferici
Had the pleasure to see an workshop with Simon and Dennis Chambers, it was magical.
I love listening to Simon, his relaxed demeanor when playing reminds me of Bill Bruford.
You are incredible Mr Phillips! Love your playing. It was a joy to meet you along with ToTo. Not one shred of ego❤
I love those grooves.
Can we acknowledge how incredibly difficult it is to nail those soft rim shots in the Africa groove? Phenomenal.
his touch is sublime, he's just so dialed in
I love this drummer!
Hey Simon absolutely loved your work with the WHO
This is the best fun I have ever encounterd having the opportunity to tour and experience playing with people you love besides watching the birth of my daughter. Touring is a complete education about people .cultures and traveling .
He’s a natural. Love this guy’s smoothest of the smooth. And of course his intuition feels playing in 3,6,9,12 is the way nature grooves.
L'excellence : bravo et merci !!!
I love this. Good live music is the closest thing to a mystical experience I have ever had.
I enjoy looking at the audience as well. Kinda cool feeling that people are getting into your stuff.
A Band's dream to have him as a drummer. Philips is so technically skilled but at the same time trying to play in a modest way. An absolute joy to listen to. The fact that he tries to pick up as much as he can what's going on during the show on stage, says a lot about his class and not being isolated behind his kit.
Simon uno de mis preferidos.
What a musician👌👌👌👌
Simon’s work on Big Country’s album The Buffalo Skinners made me a believer.
This is so super amazing 🔥❤️🥁
Thanks for the BTS!! You are Phenomenal Simon!! Love all your work!! I especially love your work on Mindfields!!
Incredible, thanks for the insights. Mr Phillips you truly inspire
Your welcome.😊
One of my milestones you might call it, strangely enough, it to be able to look around the stage or rehearsal area and talk to your bandmates. This is of great convenience, to be able to discuss parts changes etc... This involves somewhat of a detachment from your body and trust it to carry the groove.
I have admired Simon since I first seen him. He blows my mind so relaxed so on top of the beat. He can deliver a groove over any sequence of beats. A complete mystery maybe because he can play from both sides of his brain? I'm going to switch my left hand and foot in my next life!
First saw him.
@@RustyKnorr Be quiet. It was a mistake. Don’t be cruel.
@@mattwood1562I agree, if this was a Tik Tok dance a lot of people would have been critical, but this is a freakin Simon Phillips video, let's show some respect.
Simon is such an accomplished drummer, I could listen to him for hours. Thank you.
masters at work :) .
Total respect to Simon, who did a great job with Toto ! It's amazing to see his evolution as a master of drumming !
Never knew who he was until I heard give blood by Pete Townshend and loved that groove and when he finishes the song playing double bass being a younger drummer I was hooked. Then my friend played his Protocol Album and he’s been one of my favorite drummers since then.
Nothing personal, I'm a Who freak. A lot of folks misspell Townshend!
This was just about the time Lee took over from Mike too. Bitter sweet moments for Toto and Simon grooves hard with the beat for Africa!
Crazy that this is the son of the legendary 1930s - 50s band leader sid Phillips who have recorded with legends such as al bowlly and many others.
Brilliant
As a drummer, I wish I was able to play live with my head up and looking everywhere etc, but idk I'm just kinda insecure. I wear all black, I have long hair, and I wear a black cowboy hat... so people rarely see my face during a performance. I've actually been introduced before as "the mysterious one in the back", which I like if I'm honest, but at the same time, maybe I can be mysterious as well as confident enough to be a little bit more out there as a performer. I suppose that'll take practice. Thank you Simon!
I think your concept is cool. Don't change a thing.
Baterista con toda la palabra
It's infuriating that these little demo clips on YT are so much better recorded and sound much better than it ever does on the records. I've been noticing it more and more as various artists play demos of drums, guitars, bass, brass, percussion etc, and it nearly always sounds better than the records they're from.
Agreed. This trend to obscenely overproduce music is ridiculous. Thanks, hip hop. Once music stopped being made by musicians and started being made by “producers” the soul of it was lost in the drive to make money, not art.
I know people who had real problems playing drums together with a sequencer or synth, Simple Minds did have troubles with it in their live performances so this is true, organic against programmed is still a thing I hear now. Even today, extraordinary.
Interesting that he says it's easier to lock in when you play quietly. If I play with a sequencer, my instinct is always to play louder; next time, I'll try it his way...
First see Simon late 80,s with the who then toto brilliant drummer 👍
awesome snare sound
I have this snare, his Monarch signature. You can get this exact tone out of it, there is a bit of a formula to the way you have to tune it. Sounds incredible when playing live.
Absolutely loved seeing and hearing Simon in Toto. Why did he leave?
To work on his solo career.
Brilliantly put , i play a lot like that . wish he would of played Rosanna . i think i play that perfect .
Simon - 'Sometimes there's a time thing, and I have to look away (from the screens)'
Otherwise means, Simon can casually play these complex parts whilst watching TV but very occasionally the extreme mental algebra he is doing requires a breif glance toward another member of the band....
Simon is literally the best.
I think he meant that when the screens show video of him playing, there's a delay between that video and real life, so it would mess with his timing if he kept watching that.
😇
It’s always interesting to see the difference in others (not just pros anyone for that matter) drum kits and contrast and compare to your own, for instance my hats are almost at my chin when I play lol I couldn’t imagine having them low enough that they become almost a second snare in placement rather where I have it’s almost like an accent crash.
It really depends on if you play open-handed or crossed. You'll see that almost all open-handed players have their hats nice and low.
Just like this, let your instrument carry you away to new ideas. It's all in, just to be discovered.
I guess we can call Simon Phillips the "Meerkat" of drummers, always on the lookout.
Anyone know what snare shell Simon prefers?
Yeah I feel like Simon, I don't really watch the bassist because I am leading on the rhythm and tempo not following the bassist but I am listening to everybody else in the band.
So many drums to do so little on all of them
Ha! Youve never seen this guy in action! I suggest you do sum research toolbag !
Wow, he sits pretty low. How does he comfortably play those toms?
not knowing, if you have already played the second verse or not, sounds awfully familiar 😅
I.m.o,- as a drummer my self: He has it all, if you know what i exactly mean. If i had to explain my vision of his drummin ', i would have to text 'till 2028.
he has huge shoes to fill
Is this before or after my godfather Jeff porcaro died?
Long after.. This is 2007 from the Falling in Between tour.
Staring at the keyboard player…wonder if it’s true that many drummers are frustrated pianists
Nope.
His face looks like Tony Blair (in a wig)
I met this dude back in the 80's after a clinic...smallest drummer i've a ever seen...almost a dwarf...those drums are not that big
