All hail the one whom even Mcartney acknowledges as having a "Roshegeresque' experience" (note perfect 1st time-dream state inspired) in writing "Yesterday".
Solo Guitar in San Francisco has his music and I'm under the impression that Tim Hall who has headed the San Francisco Guitar association has been selling Phil's sheet music too. He is TimHGuitar on YouTube I notice. Phil has been selling hard copies when he plays in public, but he is having a tough time and I doubt he'd be able to send anything. You can find him playing at the north Berkeley BART station especially around afternoon rush.
Philip - my favorite classical guitarist! Great to hear your playing again. I still treasure the memories listening to you on Delaware St. and in my small recording studio. Get in touch! - Jeff
I'm guessing this may be Jeff finder who may have originally recorded this on tape and is credited for it as it happens in the digital edition now in Michael Lorimer's possession and allegedly a work still in progress. I lay no claim to this if Phil is aware of it's being posted here which he is. . .
I'll phone him and tell him to look here, but he has been struggling with living situation issues. He is back in the bay area.
Phil came to visit a few days ago. I had not seen him since he left for Spain. Great to see him and to hear some of his new compositions. He is in the visiting mode lately and all his CA friends are called upon to help him make a good landing here. Brother can you spare a couch or a guest room? I have his number. Feel free to use this as a message board - a fan club as it were. It is rumored that Michael Lorimer may publish this hit and others. Thanks for the liner notes MPSShanahan.
Spent the afternoon with him and Steven Bell in Live Oak park in Berkeley. Philip played several pieces...amazing of course. Bell sang some Spanish songs. Like a free concert in the park.
This is lovely...these are the Jerrold Hyman/Parkening arrangements (1977) of these pieces, oui? Sauf (minus) the gong effects in the middle of 'Pagodes,' which don't exist in the piano original but are there in the orchestral re-imagining of these tunes, and in Parkening's great 1977 recording on 'Music of Two Centuries'.

This is pretty incredible... it's been ages since this was uploaded, but please, any news on the released recording?
Or possibly some sheet music so I can (attempt to) play this ?

He's back in Berkeley,CA for the moment and
continues to compose & perform.Philip has
truly earned the title of "master".

Wow! I sure miss his playing & guitar lessons!
We used to do 2 hours or more back in 2000! I
spent hours and hours taking to him about the
guitar,technique,and music.I'm hoping to see
him to take a guitar lesson in another week or
so.This economy has been tough and money has
been tight!
