For collectors and enthusiasts alike, The Phil Collins Big Band - A Hot Night In Paris is a unique live album experience. Released in 1999 by Atlantic Records, the album takes well-known Phil Collins and Genesis hits and reinvents them through a rich, big band lens. Instead of the familiar pop sound, you're treated to swinging jazz arrangements where Collins even steps away from vocals, leaving the focus on the impressive instrumental and rhythmic performances. This creative shift not only highlights his drumming prowess but also brings forward the collective energy of an expansive 20-member band featuring seasoned jazz musicians and horn sections.
