Originally released in 1970 and 1971 on the A&M record
label, now released for the first time as a 2 on 1 CD.
Born in 1943 in Fort Worth, Texas, Shawn Phillips is one
of most fascinating and enigmatic musicians to come out
of the early '70s singer-songwriter boom.
The fact that he was a musician as much as a
singer/songwriter made him stand out, and helped him
attract a dedicated following. His refusal to shape his
music which crosses between folk-rock, jazz,
progressive, pop, and classical u to anyone else's
expectations has allowed him to hold onto a large and
dedicated cult following. Phillips went to England, where
he performed and wrote songs with Donovan, in a
professional relationship somewhat clouded in
controversy.
Phillips claimed in interviews during the 1970s that he
co-wrote Season of the Witchas well as a major portion of
the songs that finally surfaced on the album Sunshine
Superman, but only ever received one co-author credit for
Little Tin SoldierÆon the Fairy Tale album.
Contribution, Phillips' first major album, 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 band and arranger Paul
Buckminster's (Elton John, Stones, Bowie, Bee Gees) most
restrained orchestrations. (Quotes courtesy AMG)
