Saw him about 15 years ago at NEC (No Seriously concerts) and about 10 times with Genesis!!

He was surprisingly good solo :)

His voice is too shrill, like a baby's scream sets my teeth on edge.
Cracking drummer & pianist though & good in Buster.

The first time I saw Eric Clapton live he had him on the drums,at one point he announced that "Phil is going to sing a couple of songs",I went out side for a smoke until he was finished,cant stand him or his music. :)

I "just" remember them but I definitely remember what was formed by Jimmy Page after they broke up namely Led Zeppelin :y :y :y

Legend has it that Page was talking to Keith Moon and told him he had formed a completely new band from the ashes of the defunct Yardbirds,and was going to name the band "The New Yardbirds".Moon replied "that will go down like a lead balloon" which gave Page the idea of "Led Zeppelin",I wonder if they would have become so legendary if he had kept the "new Yardbirds" name for the band. :-/
