The bass player is Leland Sklar. Possibly the most recorded bass player on the planet. He has played on thousands of albums and is still active and touring. Look him up. He has a youtube channel to boot.
The bass player is Leland Sklar. He has played with everybody since the 1960's. He has his own RUclips channel where tells stories of the greats. He still records and tours too.
Toured several times with Phil and James Taylor. Just a list of the recording he's played bass on would fill up several books. One of the best bassists ever.
Kudos to the pair of you for playing the whole video, without interruption. This is probably one of the best music videos every made. Not only for Phil's performance, but also for the overall sound production, video editing and the enthusiasm of the crowd.
Such a wonderful reaction. Phil Collins is icon, a legend. I was there in Paris and the whole concert was fantastic. In the air Tonight was the start of the second half of the concert. I'm sure you will enjoy Take me Home of the same concert. This song is at the end of the concert. A concert with Phil Collins is lifetime experience.
The buildup is so atmospheric leading you by the hand to the climax. Phil always describes this song as pulling people in gently then punching them in the face! 😂😂😂
Hope you noted that both Daryl Stuemer and Chester Thomson from Genesis were part of his backing band...Phil at his brilliant best. So sad that he now suffers with severe ill health.
Genesis (after Peter Gabriel) opened both concerts I went to with “Mama,” which also starts out with thundering drums and longer intro. It worked well to build a dramatic vibe. Fantastic concerts.
I remember when this first came out and you can always tell when somebody was in their car and at the light listening to it because they started air drumming., and because if you heard it enough times you can tell exactly what they were listening to just by watching them. I'm 68 and this song Still hits me the same way it did the first time I heard it
Having, by a tragic accident of birth, been brought up elsewhere in historic Lancashire, I unfortunately didn't benefit from the miracle of having my musical appreciation being automatically heightened by my natal geography, but I think he's great anyway.
@@TheBeatenPaths no, it actually was two different ones. In the Air was in the pilot (possibly in the second hour, if it was a two-hour?) . "Phil the Shill" was later - PC mentions it in his autobiography as a call he recieved in 1985, atfer ItAT had been so successful "in their pilot episode," also noting that Kyra Sedwick was his female counterpart, and that "Don Johnson is particularly nice to me."
Saw Phil, 11 Nov 2005 in Glasgow, Scotland, 'First Final Farewell Tour,' Epic concert, hit after hit. Totally under rated artist. great drummer, On stage was 3 full drum kits and 2 individual snare drums that were used through out the concert. 'Take Me Home' was an unforgettable closing number.
Phenomenal live performance video of his greatest solo track...At first I was disappointed that the reaction video wouldn't be to the original studio version, but this was actually even better!
The guy with the white beard is Leland Sklar, who is a great and famous bass player. Interesting you bring up " Risky Business". I saw that movie and do not remember the song "In Th Air Tonight" being played on the train. For me it was "Love on a Real Train" by Tangerine Dream, that caught my ear in that scene. The sad thing about being a drum player all ones' life is the vibrations really wreak your joints. I have a memory of a scene from a video of Phil Collins where he was walking around with a drum stick taped to his hand. Neil Peart was also worried that he couldn't play like he wanted, and was thinking of calling it quits, before he was diagnosed with cancer. Alex also talked about having arthritis. "Losing It" by Rush is about this idea. Enjoyed your reaction.
It surprises me that very few people don’t notice that the drums aren’t on the rear catwalk initially! I must admit I have seen this video over 100 times and didn’t realize that he had the drumsticks 🥁 with him all the time. I saw him live in the late 80s! Excellent! He is a legend! New subscriber! Loved your reactions!
@@mom67lovesu I think you'll find that he didn't have the drumsticks on him all the time. We saw no clue of them when he was putting his shirt on during the intro, and sweaty palms and smooth drumsticks is a recipe for disaster. I can assure you that all drummers have spare sticks beside them as they're too easy to drop or slip. I don't think he'd have taken the chance of that happening during a gig of that size while walking around the stage. No, the sticks were waiting for him.
I love Phil have grown up listening to his music. He is a legend truly heartbreaking his health is suffering. I tell you one thing there will never ever be another Phil Collins. ❤️❤️❤️
I'm 57 and very fortunate to have grown up throughout the late 70s, 80s, and early 90s. At one point in the 80s, Phil Collins dominated radio airplay in America. He seemingly had hit song after hit song, and his music was used as the backdrop in the hit 80s TV show, Miami Vice. If your from my era, Phil Collins is a HUGE deal... plus, I was also a Genesis fanboy. Talent runs deep in his family. His son Nic played drums for Genesis on their 2022 Farwell tour. Nic also played drums for his dad's solo shows towards the end of his career. Lastly, Phil's daughter, Lilly Collins, is a big film star with some very impressive credits to her name. A very talented family to say the least. Thanks for your great reaction!
I love this reaction. You two are genuinely moved by the great feel of the music and the electricity of the performance just as much with a simple song as with all the complex stuff. Same as me. A pleasure to watch it all hit you.
Fortunate to have seen Genesis many, many times and Phil solo approximately 6 times. Always outstanding! I've seen dozens of concerts and Genesis is w/ out question, the greatest live band I have ever seen!!
Phil organized this song for every instrument come in 1 & time all the way to the drums. People were talking about how he was on point with everything.... of course he was that's the way he planned it.
In all of the concerts I’ve seen, Phil usually end his concerts with “Take Me Home.” In his But Seriously Live tour, there was an intermission and then In the Air Tonight.
Leland Sklar, the bassist, has worked on countless sessions and live tours, collaborating with a vast array of artists, including James Taylor, Phil Collins, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt, Toto, and Carole King.
I've been lucky to see Phil several times, and that song never disappoints live. Chester Thompson is the other drummer, played with Phil and also Genesis for a number of years. As pointed out Leland Sklar is the bass player. Such a nice guy. I met him at a meet n greet many years ago when he was playing with Toto
Hi Nick and Lex! This concert was one of the best recorded ones you'll ever come across! For another great one from Phil, which will show a different side of him, try 'Another Day In Paradise' (the music video is sooo emotional!) - love your reactions, wishing you a Happy Christmas from the UK! 🥰
Hi Guys, there are numerous live versions of this song and all of them brilliant and emotional. I remember seeing and hearing this song when Phil appeared on the British pop programme "Top of the Pops". It was his 1st ever solo appearance and song release. I bought the single that week and shortly after the album "Face Value" There are a lot of heartbreaking tracks, throughout his solo albums, and you can feel his anger and frustration from the pain of a lost love, that he was going through at the time and brought about this album. His follow up album begins with one of the most powerful angry tracks > "I don't care anymore" that really hits you like a brick ! No punches pulled. There is another that I bought as a single but a 12" version which is 8 minutes long that just gets to you emotionally > "Take Me Home" which he does the full 8 minute version of live. Even in Genesis there are many emotional tracks that easily reduce anyone to tears. Phil's vocals definitely draw out those tears and if anyone did cover versions of such songs, it would not have the same impact. Phil is singing from personal experience, making it that much more real and boy do you feel it.....especially live ! Great to see this video, thankyou. His solo concerts are just wonderful. Byee Jim X
That gated-reverb drum was the standout part of the song and really was a definitive sound of the 80s. Look up In the Air Tonight on Wikipedia for the story of it's serendipitous discovery. Still powerful as heck gives me the chills every time.
I thank God that I got the chance to watch Phil's concert here in Indonesia, 1995. It was awesome..! Now that was a once in a lifetime experience. It just sticks to your soul forever..❤
On bass the legendary Leland Sklar. You could spend more than a year on famous recordings by great artists with Leland Sklar on bass guitar. Drummer Chester Thompson and guitarist Daryl Stuermer were a reliable addition to the Genesis live concerts from late seventies on.
The drummer is Chester Thompson and the guitarist is Darryl Stuermer, and the two of them become the 4th and 5th members of Genesis when they played live throughout the 80's, 90's and 00's. You should also, (but probably won't 😉) watch the start of this concert on RUclips; the start is an approximately 10 minute drum-fest with Phil, Chester and the percussionist who's name I forget playing together before the rest of the 'orchestra' come in.
One of my greatest regrets of my life are concerts I had to skip b/c of work, where I should have called in sick.. I should have seen more Phil Collins tours than the one show I saw (No Jacket Required tour).
The meaning of this song is what makes me so emotional. Divorce. Phil was going through a divorce. A divorce is a loss. I love Phil Collins and thank you both for this reaction from a 64 yr. old woman.
What many dont realise about Phil is he introduced the new sound of drums in 80's. It is gated reverb drum sound. Before him the drums sounded dry and hollow and would never cut through the song. During one recording session with Peter Gabriel and producer Hugh Padgham they discovered this technique by accident but Phil perfected it so well everyone was using it in 80's and later to this day. And it is this drum sound that allowed many songs today to exist and without it they would never become hits.
3 Years later you can see Phil still at his best , when Genesis played in Rome , in front of 500.000 people. For free . But the end is very very sad , because of Phil's Health. My heart is broken . I saw the final Genesis Tour . It broke me.
The guy is just a genius i don't know if he will ever be able to tour again heres hoping that he does this song as always been amasing when it😂was first released back in 1981 i remember watching this on top of the pops and it gave me goosebumps thanks for playing this ian from over in the UK
The song was also used as the Theme song for television Cop show called "Miami Vice" which starred Don Johnson back in the late eighties and early nineties.
What a song by phil collins as a huge genesis fan i love the way Chester Thompson the (drummer) and the daryl stuermer (guitarist) have followed from the group genesis to his solo career too amazing
Great reaction to a great song! A bit of trivia that you’ll both get a kick out of, is that Phil’s first show as lead singer was in London, Ontario back in March of 1976! Cheers!
Although Leland Sklar is only a GREAT session bass player, his participation in more than 2000 albums makes him, in my humble opinion, worthy of the respect of the music industry and a place in the ROCK AND ROLL hall of fame.
Such a great performance, I love this and have it saved in my favourite videos list. I've watched this exact video several times and love it every time. I've also got a lump in my throat Lex, so good!
another great Phil Collins solo song, " one more night" I can't wait to see your reaction to these songs I think are his best songs, they are all great, but some are just better than others to me.
Nick & Lex, being the Genesis and Phil Collins fans you are, you must realize that the guitar player is Daryl Stuermer, and the 2nd drummer is Chester Thompson. They both played live performances (post Steve Hackett era) with Genesis, and also in all of Phil's solo works. While Genesis is a British group, both Daryl and Chester are from the U.S.
Chills, indeed, young lady. I've watched this dozens of times. Never gets old. A moment of musical art stamped in history. I only noticed after watching the first several times that his drum kit was hidden and rose up as he got closer, AND there were no cymbals in the kit. Amazing. This track was in the middle of the show, after an interlude. The whole concert was epic. Be well. /M.
No, the people there did not know that Phil was going to play the drums at the end. The drum set came out of the floor at the last moment. You can hear the moment they see it. You can catch a glimpse of it on the video.
Lee Slark was Phill's Bass player for many years .Lee has been heard in the songs of musicians such as Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor, Hall & Oates, Jackson Browne, Phil Collins, Clint Black, Reba McEntire, George Strait .As a group member, session player, or touring musician, Sklar has appeared on over 2,000 albums, and contributed to many motion picture and television show
The bass player is Leland Sklar. Possibly the most recorded bass player on the planet. He has played on thousands of albums and is still active and touring. Look him up. He has a youtube channel to boot.
Ron Cárter is the most recorded acoustic bass player and Leland is the most recorded electric bass player in the planet!!
Lol, I should read comments, I just posted about Lelands channel! 👊🏾
I don’t care who the bass player was, to praise him and not an absolute legend in Phil Collins is ridiculous
Same as Tony Levin. Both very versatile and popular
@@paulsaez2069 Leelark has contributed to over 2000 records and is the most recorded bass player in the last 50 years.
The bass player is Leland Sklar. He has played with everybody since the 1960's. He has his own RUclips channel where tells stories of the greats. He still records and tours too.
One of the greatest of all time. The number of songs he's played on is staggering
Toured several times with Phil and James Taylor. Just a list of the recording he's played bass on would fill up several books. One of the best bassists ever.
Jim Henson's greatest creation.
Was just going to say he's probably the most famous musician on that stage... even more than Phil
I think because of all his hits people forget what an excellent drummer Phil was. Loved your reaction.
Check out Phil's drum duet with Chester Thompson ....
EPIC !!!
Except for those that knew him from Genesis.
Should check out the vids on YT with him and his backup drummer. They're awesome together! Funny as hell too! :)
Kudos to the pair of you for playing the whole video, without interruption. This is probably one of the best music videos every made. Not only for Phil's performance, but also for the overall sound production, video editing and the enthusiasm of the crowd.
Just seeing how excited Lex got when the drum kit started rising up and Phil started playing was worth it. Great reaction guys.
I was the same way, resigned to seeing Phil NOT playing the drums. So excited when he did!
Luv the way Lex tears up - true emotions and appreciation 😮
I saw Phil Collins concert once, the stage, audio and lighting are high end productions, consider for that era in early 90s.
The drum duet with Chester Thompson and Phil, which leads into "Take Me Home" from this same show, is an epic close to an amazing concert.
Such a wonderful reaction. Phil Collins is icon, a legend. I was there in Paris and the whole concert was fantastic. In the air Tonight was the start of the second half of the concert. I'm sure you will enjoy Take me Home of the same concert. This song is at the end of the concert. A concert with Phil Collins is lifetime experience.
One of those rare moments when the live version sounds better than the studio version
By a mile
It evolved.
It's took on a new life with this version
I was 23 when it came out and of course I loved it...Phil has made so many good songs
One word...EPIC!
I saw Phill Collins in concert twice, and in both concerts, Phill sang In The Air in the middle of the concert!! IT WAS EPIC!!
The buildup is so atmospheric leading you by the hand to the climax. Phil always describes this song as pulling people in gently then punching them in the face! 😂😂😂
Hope you noted that both Daryl Stuemer and Chester Thomson from Genesis were part of his backing band...Phil at his brilliant best. So sad that he now suffers with severe ill health.
You definitely need to check out Phil and Chester performing their drum duet.
Genesis (after Peter Gabriel) opened both concerts I went to with “Mama,” which also starts out with thundering drums and longer intro. It worked well to build a dramatic vibe. Fantastic concerts.
One of the greatest prog drummers ever. Phil is in my top 5 of my drumming influences.
That performance actually made my eyes water.
I remember when this first came out and you can always tell when somebody was in their car and at the light listening to it because they started air drumming., and because if you heard it enough times you can tell exactly what they were listening to just by watching them. I'm 68 and this song Still hits me the same way it did the first time I heard it
80,000 people. what a concert
This is my favourite version of In The Air Tonight. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for listening
Legendary.....
Coming from Liverpool I know a thing or two about music this Man so underrated as a musician, he is a Genius from Genesis.
Having, by a tragic accident of birth, been brought up elsewhere in historic Lancashire, I unfortunately didn't benefit from the miracle of having my musical appreciation being automatically heightened by my natal geography, but I think he's great anyway.
The simplest drum riff in all humanity...and the greatest.
The song wa also on a Miami Vice Episode wher Phil plays a role in .
It was called Phil the Shill.
Was it the same episode? The screen after dark driving the spyder?
@@TheBeatenPaths no, it actually was two different ones. In the Air was in the pilot (possibly in the second hour, if it was a two-hour?) .

Great reaction to a great song and sublime performance. Thank you too for playing without constant interruption. Genesis and Collins at brilliant best

Saw Phil with Genesis three times in the 70s and he is a truly awesome drummer. Love Daryl Stuermer on the guitar.
Artist who can sing and play drums very talented
Phenomenal live performance video of his greatest solo track...At first I was disappointed that the reaction video wouldn't be to the original studio version, but this was actually even better!
It is nice to see someone watch the entire video without interrupting it

All I can say is absolutely brilliant. 🙂
This song came halfway into a 2½ concert. It was neither the opener or the encore - the encore is always "Take Me Home".
This song came out while I was still in elementary school and I'm 50 now.
I still had tears in my eyes after this performance today.
Same here, I'll be 50 in 2025. MIAMI VICE FOREVER!!!
I love Phil have grown up listening to his music. He is a legend truly heartbreaking his health is suffering. I tell you one thing there will never ever be another Phil Collins. ❤️❤️❤️

First song of the second set or part two. Fantastically epic concert.
He is the best drummer of all time in the rock and roll hall of fame. He is a drummer first and foremost. Legendary.
This song starts the second half of the concert
Buy the Full Concert DVD. PARIS Final Farewell Concert.
Great reaction with no talking and stopping ❤
I was fortunate enough to see Phil live at the Ellis Park Rugby Stadium in Johannesburg in the mid nineties. 60,000 people plus me! Great gig!
Fortunate to have seen Genesis many, many times and Phil solo approximately 6 times. Always outstanding! I've seen dozens of concerts and Genesis is w/ out question, the greatest live band I have ever seen!!
Genesis don´t forget Micheal Rutherford Mike + The Mechanics "The Living Years"
One of the greatest live performances ever. Period.
Phil organized this song for every instrument come in 1 & time all the way to the drums. People were talking about how he was on point with everything.... of course he was that's the way he planned it.

Phil Collins was my first concert. Way back in 1985! Was a great show!
The other drummer was Chester Thompson ex ex-Weather Report. Frank Zappa< Genesis and Phill Collins drummer!!
Small nitpick: You probably mean Chester Thompson was ex "Weather Report" not "Water Report".
Best Wishes. ☮
Hi Nick and Lex! This concert was one of the best recorded ones you'll ever come across! For another great one from Phil, which will show a different side of him, try 'Another Day In Paradise' (the music video is sooo emotional!) - love your reactions, wishing you a Happy Christmas from the UK! 🥰

Check out "Drums + Take Me Home" from the same concert. It's the closing song, and Phil's interaction with the crowd is amazing. HIGHLY recommended!
The drummer is Chester Thompson and the guitarist is Darryl Stuermer, and the two of them become the 4th and 5th members of Genesis when they played live throughout the 80's, 90's and 00's.

I believe his name is Luis Conte. Yes. Fantastic drum session.
@@396Cap Yup, that's the guy!
One of my greatest regrets of my life are concerts I had to skip b/c of work, where I should have called in sick.. I should have seen more Phil Collins tours than the one show I saw (No Jacket Required tour).
The meaning of this song is what makes me so emotional. Divorce. Phil was going through a divorce. A divorce is a loss. I love Phil Collins and thank you both for this reaction from a 64 yr. old woman.
Just so good🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️
When you are angry for some reasons and you are Phil Collins, you can make a piece of music art like "In the air tonight"
I'm old enough to remember hearing this on the TV back in the day. Miami vice, one of my fav TV shows ever :)
Amazing the age of the crowd that are getting into this 40 year old song!
Officially the fastest 7 minutes on record!
Go and see Phil Collins lead singer of Genesis at Wembley stadium (1987) singing "Mama".. please...
What many dont realise about Phil is he introduced the new sound of drums in 80's. It is gated reverb drum sound. Before him the drums sounded dry and hollow and would never cut through the song.

🇨🇦 This concert was in Paris, so the girl at the end was shouting out "Encore" ! 🇨🇦

I saw him live! You have no idea how great he was
Hi guys, my husband and I love Phil, we can't stop listening to him in the car!
We can see a classic scene with this song, in the first episode of TV show "Miami Vice" (in 1984)
It's always fun to watch people watch this video. I know by the end they are going to tear up.
i have listened to this song 1000's of times and this is by far the best Version of the song ever...
The song was also used as the Theme song for television Cop show called "Miami Vice" which starred Don Johnson back in the late eighties and early nineties.
He's been involved with so much great music, but also a great performer.
What a song by phil collins as a huge genesis fan i love the way Chester Thompson the (drummer) and the daryl stuermer (guitarist) have followed from the group genesis to his solo career too amazing
Great reaction to a great song! A bit of trivia that you’ll both get a kick out of, is that Phil’s first show as lead singer was in London, Ontario back in March of 1976! Cheers!
Loved y'alls reaction!
Although Leland Sklar is only a GREAT session bass player, his participation in more than 2000 albums makes him, in my humble opinion, worthy of the respect of the music industry and a place in the ROCK AND ROLL hall of fame.
Such a great performance, I love this and have it saved in my favourite videos list. I've watched this exact video several times and love it every time. I've also got a lump in my throat Lex, so good!
One of Phil's greatest songs. I loved it from its opening chords when I first heard it. I was also glad Phil was more on his own. 👍 Cheers guys
8:21 I love her impression of Leland !
good morning and good sunday here we have a rainy day in Argentina , good song this one
another great Phil Collins solo song, " one more night" I can't wait to see your reaction to these songs I think are his best songs, they are all great, but some are just better than others to me.
Nick & Lex, being the Genesis and Phil Collins fans you are, you must realize that the guitar player is Daryl Stuermer, and the 2nd drummer is Chester Thompson. They both played live performances (post Steve Hackett era) with Genesis, and also in all of Phil's solo works. While Genesis is a British group, both Daryl and Chester are from the U.S.
Face Value, amazing album, well worth a listen!
Thank you guys, love Phil. He is definitely a GOAT. (Greatest of all time.) You should check out Another Day in Paridise.
We actually reacted to that song already, check it out!! :)
Chills, indeed, young lady. I've watched this dozens of times. Never gets old. A moment of musical art stamped in history.

Bass drop is the GOAT!
Lee Slark was Phill's Bass player for many years .Lee has been heard in the songs of musicians such as Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor, Hall & Oates, Jackson Browne, Phil Collins, Clint Black, Reba McEntire, George Strait .As a group member, session player, or touring musician, Sklar has appeared on over 2,000 albums, and contributed to many motion picture and television show
Lee Spark played in Billy Cobham Spectrum !! What an epic record!!
His name is Leland Sklar.
I know! I first discovered Mr Slark in 1970 when he was James Taylor's bass player!
"Separate Lives" y "Against all odds" son dos excelente canciones. Las de ese mismo concierto son inigualables.
I have the honor of having been present at the old Giants stadium watching Phil sing all these hits and others from Genesis in 1991.
