Phil talks with us about the 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of his groundbreaking album Love Broke Thru, which he’s currently reissuing through Kickstarter.

I have come to know Phil, through my Pastor Wayne T. And I have loved his incredible guitar work before I came to faith in August of 1990. I never thought in my wildest dreams that we would have a formal meet and greet, I was so nervous, but Phil was so humble and Grace and turned my 1920 Washburn Parlor guitar and then at my request he signed it with his favorite scripture. He is an inspiration and his passion for music just flows through his views and his love for God and his whimsical sense of humor too. Congratulations on this new project 😇💟🙏
I meant to say the song Children Fantasy off the Glass Harp , phenomenal guitarist, I enjoy listening to all of his albums and songs, so good!
At this time I couldn’t donate to Phil’s Great project I believe Blessed by The Father. But with heartfelt wishes only the best success for Phil and his collaborative team of great musicians all Blessed by God. If these new albums are even close to the Blessings God bestowed on What a Day. There will be more Blessings and success in the future for collaborators and fans alike ❤️
