REVIEW:

We've all heard the Phil stories and this confirms all.  Unique set includes studio outakes with groups such as The Ronettes, Crystals, and more.   Phil worked with many groups, even as diverse as the Ramones.   Starting with the box cover we've got a photo of a psyched out '70's Phil pointing a gun out a car window (fitting for his latest antics).  Inside you'll find an 8 page booklet with the track list and more photos.   There are very few complete songs here but what you will find is take after take of Phil trying to get the sound just right (in which he almost always succeeded) with the original recording sessions of several different sixties artist signed to his label.   Many of his signees at the time performed on each others records so it seems just about everyone at that time appears here and there (Sonny and Cher singing backup!).   If you are a fan of the Wall of Sound (who isn't?), you'll this set more than worthwhile.  A pro in this genre promises a more in-depth look at this box shortly.
