I'm so fed up with the comments regarding SRV copying etc.

1 - would you rather see SRV's music and influence die? (and A King, Jimi, and others' for that matter)

2 - you'd rather see bad players and bad music?

3 - check out the artist before commenting if you don't know them. Philip's stuff is super original

4 - Stevie borrowed from other players too. He would smile and be proud to influence other players now. He was all about soul, honesty, respect - all the opposite of the "Youtube" haters

Can't a man just sing the blues and play his guitar without being slated as trying to copy other artists?

Music is ALL about inspiration and influence, this guy is clearly influenced by SRV, that doesn't mean he wants to BE him ffs. People get a grip. Philip is very talented and amazing at what he does - just enjoy the music and get off your high horses, you fucks.

Long live the blues <3

He's good. I think he should stick with more of the blues feel for this song. He has too much R&B, rock flavor. Also, he turned this song into a guitar trick fest.

@strasale Amen. Honestly I am so excited to see the spirit and style of SRV carried on through other COMPETENT artist.

Here's the thing about Philip. He's heavily influenced by SRV, so are A LOT of other players, but, IMO, he's THE ONLY ONE who is taking what SRV, Jimi, etc. did and taking it further. As much as he'll play SRV riffs he'll do things on the guitar I've never heard or seen before. Case in point: 2:29-2:35. Show me someone else on the planet who does that. That's right, you can't. NOT TO MENTION....his voice is far superior to all these other blooze guys these days, and he writes incredible tunes.

@tkosmell000 Thank you. I've been saying that for years.

Very enjoyable player....

Pretty funny all the SRV comparisons, as if SRV invented the strat/fender amp tone. He didn't. SRV was an Albert King act in a Hendrix costume.

Every musician in the history of music has copied someone.

The Strat/Fender amp tone is probably the most commonly used setup there is. Deserves no hate.
