Digitally remastered collection of 2 original albums on a single CD! Both were originally released in 1970 and 1971 on the A&M label. "Contribution" is a superb debut, mixing progressive rock and folk sounds in a manner unique to its time. Recorded in 1968 with help from members of Traffic (Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi, Chris Wood and Caleb Quayle) among others, this is a condensation of a far more ambitious studio original that was intended to fill three LPs. On "Second Contribution" - a startling, ever-shifting, album-length musical landscape, Phillips carries us across folk ("The Ballad Of Casey Deiss") and rock styles with a heavy R&B feel at times ("Song For Mr. C"), accompanied by a crack band with string arrangements by Paul Buckmaster (Elton John, Stones, David Bowie, Bee Gees).
