skip to 3:16 if you have never heard it or to refresh your memory

does this deceptively simple break deserve its legendary status

yes, but only in context to phil's large back catalog of amazing drumming.

I think Phil sold out his art, but then I guess he's laughling all the way to the bank.

 

To see what he's really capable of check out Unorthodox Behaviour by Brand X.

i'm more of a fan of moroccan roll than unorthodox behaviour. some great moments on both albums though.

i'm more of a peter fan than i am a phil fan, but i enjoy both. you can't at least appreciate his drumming on lamb? or his duets with peter on the same album?

[Guest disparaissant]

i can appreciate his drumming to a certain extent, but his voice grates on me in a weird way and i find the vast majority of his oeuvre to be incredibly dull.

Phil's a great drummer and all but his songwriting?

 

Compare him to this:
