In one of the next installments of this series, Glen (Phillips) tips his hand a bit and points you in the direction of a good starting point when it comes to checking out his solo career. I love all three of his full-length solo records for different reasons. With a gun put to my head, I think I come to the same conclusion he sort of does. Be on the lookout. It's a catalog worth investigating and people with souls like his music. :-) All right, that was overkill. Thanks for reading and the kind words. I do hope you'll make good and check out some of his albums. Be on the lookout for more from the series. El B... Tuesday? What have you in store for then? 716982@blogcritics.org Sat, 10 May 2008 21:24:10 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/05/10/150855.php#comment-716978 Great stuff here Josh. I've never been a huge fan of Toad The Wet Sprocket or of Phillips solo work (which I confess I haven't heard much of). But I found his insights on the music business both fascinating to read and quite eye-opening on a number of different fronts. At any rate, reading this interview certainly makes me want to look further into Phillips work as a solo artist. Again, kudos on a great read. -Glen 716978@blogcritics.org Sat, 10 May 2008 21:14:58 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/05/10/150855.php#comment-716976 Transcripts of your radio interviews are a great idea on a number of counts (although I may be of a different mindset depending on what happens Tuesday ;) 716976@blogcritics.org Sat, 10 May 2008 21:05:04 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/05/10/150855.php#comment-716975 Thanks, Sir Brewster. I agree completely, especially when if you take the time to listen to what he's done on his own. He's making great records. 716975@blogcritics.org Sat, 10 May 2008 20:58:32 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/05/10/150855.php#comment-716973 It is indeed a cool time to be a music fan. Its great that guys like Mr. Phillips can continue to make interesting music long after the "business" has lost interest. 716973@blogcritics.org Sat, 10 May 2008 20:56:07 EDT
