After two hours of heart- filled jamming, it was obvious that he dared an awful lot about his audience. He began by doing what he does best-beating those drums. The dark stage slowly illuminated to reveal 'tollins banging in synch with another percussionist who took the reins when Phil took to the stage. Dressed in a double-breasted suit Vomplete with high-top tennis shoes, 'Collins greeted the packed arena with a glae that conveyed his mood-energetic and delighted. Soon, after the finished } the first number, Collins was joined by the Pheonix Horns, those amazing dudes from Earth, Wind & Fire. ~together Collins and the guys were able to do some fanciful work on all of Phil's standard tunes. Particularly good was "Thunder and Lightning," from Collins' first solo album, Face Value. The Horns added a new dimension to ,this jazzy, upbeat number. The surprising thing about this con- cert was Collins himself. There was lit- tle doubt that the music would be good-just listening to his albums would give one an inkling that he'd be able to reproduce that enthusiasm in a live performance. But it's the inbet- ween stuff that makes or breaks a rock show. Collins satisfied all 'when he played Saturday night. Whether he was jumping around during an instrumental break or verbally teasing the audience, Philkept everyone's attention. At one point, while introducing "Thru These Walls," from his new LP Hello, I Must Be Going, Collins stripped to his shirtsleeves and trousers and put on an old terrycloth bathrobe. "This song is dedicated to all you perverts out there," he shouted. The crowd roared and begged for more. He went on to give the eager patrons "a crash course in perversion," as he termed it. This little sideshow con- sisted of namely a ladies negligee (to prance around in), a glass cup (to listen to your neighbors with), and something else that Phil wouldn't go into-except for saying that maybe we'd have to clear the first 10 rows or so for him to really show us. Sitting casually on the edge of the stage, Phil put his heart and soul, into this new song. It was the long-awaited for perfor- mance of his hits that really impressed the already-frenzied audience. "This is a little number we composed on the bus," Phil joked as he began "I Missed Again" from Face Value. The accom- paniment by the Pheonix Horns made this rendition of the hit a bit more funky and rhythmic than other versions might seem. The Horns not only jazzed up the musical notes, they did a fan- tastic job at entertaining. They did, of course, blow out some nasty jams, but they also danced some Pip-like moves, as well as doing a creditible job at back- up vocals. Collins seemed to appreciate their assistance also, considering he waltzed over to them a few times to show his affection.

UNow The most successful numbers of the evening, in terms of audience reaction, had to be "In the Air Tonight," where Collins received his first standing ovation, and "You Can't Hurry Love," which had every person dancing in the aisles. "In the Air Tonight" had Phil doing his own drumming, something he truly is a master at. He didn't hide behind the drums for his current hit single, however. He had too much to put into this one-sunglasses, tam- bourine and dancing feet. Although the crowd liked this number the most, it was perhaps just a little lakadasical. It had a lot of power, but the charge just seemed to be missing. There was not a spark missing, however, from either of Collins' two en- cores. The first, which he totally let loose on his drums, had everybody in awe of his talent. The second encore appearance was an unusual gospel number that Collins did soulfully. The folks at Hill Auditorium didn't want to let him go, but as we all know, all good things must come to an end. ACCollege Students!
