Shawn Phillips

Where Genre Labels Go to Die
Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for Shawn Phillips – the man who looked at the musical rule book, laughed, and then used it to start a bonfire! Emerging from the early 1970s like a tie-dyed phoenix, Phillips isn't just a singer-songwriter; he's a musical mixologist, blending genres with the flair of a mad scientist. Folk, rock, jazz, funk, progressive, pop, electro, classical, world music – you name it, he's stirred it into his sonic cocktail. This virtuoso doesn't just play instruments; he makes them sing, dance, and possibly question their life choices. His voice? It's not just a voice; it's a force of nature that can go from a whisper to a roar faster than you can say "genre-defying genius." Now, you might be wondering, "Why isn't this guy a household name?" Well, folks, Shawn Phillips is the musical equivalent of that cool, mysterious uncle who travels the world and comes back with stories that make your head spin. He's got a dedicated cult following that's more loyal than a pack of golden retrievers, all because he refused to fit into any neat little category. But wait, there's more! Think Like A Key Music has decided it's high time to let the world in on the secret. They're teaming up with the man himself to bring you Live In The Seventies – a treasure trove of previously unreleased live recordings that'll make you wish you had a time machine. This isn't just a live album; it's a sonic time capsule from an era when music knew no boundaries. It's proof that while everyone else was trying to find their sound, Shawn Phillips was busy creating all the sounds. Shawn Phillips: Because why be a one-trick pony when you can be the whole dang circus? Get ready to expand your musical horizons, folks – this is one ride you won't want to miss!
