Phil Collins defined progressive rock drumming, American drummer Rich Lackowski wrote: "Phil Collins's grooves in early Genesis recordings paved the way for many talented drummers to come. His ability to make the drums bark with musicality and to communicate so convincingly in odd time signatures left many a drummer tossing on the headphones and playing along to Phil's lead." In 2014, readers of "Rhythm" voted Collins the fourth most influential progressive rock drummer for his work on the 1974 Genesis album "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway". In 2015, MusicRadar named Collins one of the six pioneers of progressive rock drumming. In
