A Hot Night in Paris is the only album by the Phil Collins Big Band, released in 1999 by Atlantic Records.

Fronted by Genesis lead singer/drummer Phil Collins, the album did not contain any singing.

All the other things I was listening to at the time had to move over and make room for this wonderful noise I had discovered.

In 1996 I toured Europe with Quincy Jones conducting and Tony Bennett as our guest vocalist and my band.

I'm back where I belong, behind the drums, playing music I'm proud of with some wonderful musicians.
