MUSIC Terry Reid. The Jazz Club, 2/F, 34-36 D'Aguilar Street, Central. Tonight. Tickets $250 ($125 members). Call 2845-8477 for details.

A last chance tonight to catch one of the great rock vocalists of the 1960s on the latest of several swings through town. Terry 'Superlungs' Reid is probably best known as the man who turned down the lead vocalist's job with Led Zeppelin. Not withstanding having made the bad career choice of the century he has been successful in his own right as a songwriter and the voice that commended him to Jimmy Page is still intact. He is backed by the Eugene Pao Band.

Phil Collins. Hong Kong Coliseum. Wednesday and Thursday, 8 pm. Tickets $1,280, $480, $380 from Urbtix, call 2734-9009 for bookings.

The number of people who find Phil Collins unendurable probably counterbalances those who adore him, but his multiple talents as a drummer, vocalist, songwriter and producer are undeniable. A shameless pleaser, he will undoubtedly perform all the big ballads from In The Air Tonight onwards, but expect some rock material too. Collins is very particular about his backing musicians and the band should be well worth seeing in its own right.

Michel Dalberto. Academy for Performing Arts Concert Hall. Saturday, 8 pm. Tickets $150 ($50 students).

A piano recital from one of the world's leading interpreters of Schubert. Michel Dalberto has recorded the composer's complete piano works and has performed them all over the world. In addition to Schubert this performance will include works by French composers Debussy, Faure and Ravel.

DANCE Martha Graham Dance Company. Hong Kong Cultural Centre Grand Theatre, Saturday and May 7, 7.30 pm. Tickets $300, $220, $140, $80. Enquiries 2734-2006/2734-2911.
