There's more light in the world than darkness. Art like this will keep the darkness on the run.

Three cheers for the sound engineers, you can hear everything! Fabulous recording!

[lisalindsey]

All the Sax players/artists were great but, James Carter Completely DESTROYED that SAX.. it was AWESOME!!! Never saw anyone play a Sax like that before.. I wish I had been in the audience. Simply AMAZING. Phil Collins ... what can I say but GREATNESS!!!

[craigchapman]

But that pocket!!! Phil is funky as hell.

What a band. RIP big George.

[xaviersantos]

George Duke just looks absolutely joyful and I love it, he and James really have a great stage presence here

[kccodex]

Hats off to Collins for not breaking the vide with a long drum solo. He's driving that band like a Mack Truck...

[olds]

This is freaking awesome. And Phil stays in the pocket for 20+ minutes.

James Carter Tenor Sax Solo best solo I've ever heard!

[williambeck]

Love all of the sax solos....Gerald, Klaus, Sadao, Ellis, James. BUT....George Duke is off the charts in this video. His comping makes the rhythm section and his solo is unbelievable!
He is sorely missed.

[alejandromaure]

I can't get enough of hearing this. A masterpiece, performed by some of the best musicians in contemporary music. And Phil Collins is one of them.

No one has as much fun on stage as James Carter, in any of his big band performances he’s always dancing to other peoples’ solos. Nothing better than a legendary artist who can appreciate others’ solos all the same

[mikecrenshaw]

In 1000 years, our descendants will wonder what kind of music was made by humans, and they will listen to this and be blown away....still.

Sax players unite! 😎 Gerald Albright, Klaus Doldinger, Sadeo Wattanabe, Pee Wee Ellis, James Carter What he played is physically impossible and against the laws of physics), and the sax section! What an eclectic and interesting collection of sax monsters! Thank you, sax brothers ... we appreciate you! And how about the arrangement by Arif Mardin? Amazing!

[chasstone]

Took me 2 months after back job that paralyzed all my leg but 3 toes. NBA shooter. I'm dancing to this..what a rif

[leone.]

That Bassist lays down such a great grove. He knows how to put use to all of his 5 strings, without overplaying or anything. Very tastefull.

[soundcheck]

Such a collection of great musicians. But James Carter's solo is the deepest in the pocket of them all!

[jasongiles]

WOW, amazing. I had no idea about Phil Collins Big Band. The man is a genius drummer a human metronome and the rest of the musicians are astounding

[bobbysands]

I could listen to Pick Up The Pieces forever and never get bored. What a great song, and what a shame that era has been lost. Thanks God Phil did his best to keep it alive.

[noco]

I am not any kind of expert. Not a musician, can't play any instrument. But this arrangement blows me away. What a great moment in my live. Thank you...I can't tell you nothing more but thank you from the button of my heart.
