Anthony Phillips.. Geese and the Ghost

Anthony Phillips was guitarist with Genesis pre-Hackett. He put out a classic solo album called "The Geese and the Ghost". I've located a CD copy and will forward it to Jim as soon as it and a few other bits arrive. The Genesis fans on the moon are sure to love this.

Thumbs up

Ooh, I've heard bits and pieces of this in the past. I'm looking forward to it, myself. I'll keep one and all posted as to when it gets stuffed into the database, if interested....

been awhile

Haven't listened to it for say, 15 years. I think it's in a stack of records from a friend of mine who is moving. Maybe I'll pull it out. Remember it as sort of having a "rustic" feel, and certainly different from say "1984".

pastoral, moody ...his best

Geese and the Ghost is Ant Phillips Voyage of the Acolyte, imho.

Tracks: Sleepfall the Geese Fly West and Which Way the Wind Blows...I won't harp on, but they're a gift.

Thank you, vax!!

I'm please all are excited to have it here. I'm on a quest for the original Private Parts and Pieces as well as Wise After the Event (which has been the story of my life ) for AM.

Vinyl.......

I have every Ant Philips album mentioned here on vinyl and love 'em. There's another one that he released called "Sides" that has some wonderful tracks on esp. The song "I want your love" which some would say is a soppy love ballad (which it is) but I like it anyway.

I have alot of stuff too, I just haven't brought myself to part with any of it and send it to Jim so I've been scouring eBay and the discount/used record stores.... how repulsively materialistic of me.

Yes, Sides is a great album. 'I want your love' is indeed soppy but it's good sop.

Still haven't figured out how to cut and paste from previous posts so it's in that nice enhanced black print.

Thumbs up

I've recieved Ant Phillips "Geese & Ghost", and I just have to say, what was I thinking for not picking this one up? I hadn't heard it in years, but how could I have forgotten how good it was? (I know, I'm an idiot.)

A great big THANK YOU to Vax for contributing it.

...and, as luck would have it, Wise After The Event arrived the the day I posted the "weights". I'll send it along in a future drop.

Anthony Phillips WOW!

i couldn't believe i'd forgotten about this lp...i originally heard it played with a large dose of early genesis and didn't know it was a spin off member...it was my favorite tape for years and years but broke about 5yrs ago...i'm glad it's here and the mystery of "i wonder what album that's on?"

love it
great memories on this entire lp

(mossy hit the quote button(above the input message box) then type your text and preview the message(button below input box)...took me a bit too )
