And now my Second Final Phil Collins Tribute Kit!
So I've been working on replicating another one of Phil's kits, this time moving back to 1980. The tour in support of the Genesis album Duke was the last time Phil played double headed toms on stage with Genesis. I already had a head start on a few of the drums, so I picked up a few more to round out his Duke tour kit.
Once again primarily Ludwig drums...
The 8 and 10" toms are Keller shells I bought from Precision Drum. Ludwig never made 8x5.5" or 10x6.5" double headed toms, and it was quicker and easier to just get raw shells.
There are no great photos of Phil's Duke Tour kit, but he did use most of that kit a year later when Genesis played on Top of the Pops, minus the small toms and some cymbals. All Premier drums with a Ludwig Supersensitive.
Duke is such a fantastic album. My wife got it for me on vinyl during a 50 cent milk crate dive at a local record shop during her college days. I love how spacey and weird their earlier stuff with Peter was but man Duke, from the point of view of a 'pop' album, is nearly perfect.
