A Life in Music: The Fox

A refreshingly laidback take on Phil’s contribution to the Short Wave album, his only composition for that particular band. It was originally hoped that Didier Malherbe, the only surviving member of this Canterbury supergroup of sorts (also including Hugh Hopper and Pip Pyle), would be the featured player on this, but fate prevented this. Theo Travis, Didier’s replacement in Gong, more than ably deps for him and takes a fine solo, followed by Alex Maguire on piano, with Patrice Meyer, Jack Monck and Paul Dufour providing the rhythmic foundation.
