No, not the drummer...

I'm sure Phil Collen of Def Lep is tired of being confused with Phil Collins, the singer/drummer who just retired. Collen is the guitarist for Def Lep, and maybe one of the most UNDER rated 80's guitarist. He linked up with Def Lep during the recording sessions for Pyromania, and has been with the band ever since. He & Steve Clark (RIP) were known as the "Terror Twins" because of their amazing dual guitar work. Phil is an excellent technical guitarist, who was able to take the studio demands of producer Mutt Lange, and painstakingly create some awesome guitar legacies. I love to watch him play...and oddly enough, my path has crossed with Phil's a few times over the years...pictured, sharing some "tea" at Abbey Rd in 1999. --and NO, he won't sing Su-su-sudio for ya...
