First of all, I own a copy of one of Anthony Phillips' albums (there are at least two of them). It is called "Wise After the Event" and it is a pretty nice album. The music is somewhat like the mellow songs of "Tresspass" (e.g.: "Stagnation", "Visions of Angels", etc.). My main complain about the album is a bit too mellow; it is fine for a relaxing afternoon, but if you listen to it at 11 PM, expect to be asleep by 11:10. Next, let's touch on Phil Collins for a while. Phil is a very good, hard- working musician. I particularly like his section on the "Secret Policeman's Other Ball"; very fine acoustic interpretations of "In the Air Tonight" and "The Roof is Leaking". But I have one thing to say about Collins: I WISH HE'D GET OVER HIS DIVORCE ONCE AND FOR ALL !!! . I'm getting sick and tired of hearing about it: "I don't care anymore ..." (well shut-up then) "I can feel it in the air tonight ... ", "I'm getting stronger by the minute ... ", "Please don't ask me how I feel, I feel fine. I cry a bit, don't sleep too well, bbut I'm fine ...", etc. Get Off It Collins!!! you've been crying for the last five years !!! (I just hope Sting doesn't start doing the same) Finally, I'd like to mention that Peter Gabriel has got a live album out. It is called "Plays Live", and it is essentially a vynil copy of Peter's last tour (which I'm sure most people who saw it will agree was excellent). FYI it contains the following songs: "The Rhythm of the Heat", "I have the Touch", "Not One of Us", "Family Snapshot", "D.I.Y.", "The Family and the Fishing Net", "Intruder", "I go Swimming", "San Jacinto", "Solsbury Hill", "No Self Control", "I Don't Remember", "Shock the Monkey", "Humdrum", "On the Air" and "Biko". You want to know what it sounds like ... ? Then G.I.Y. (the G stands for Get). Dan Vanevic inuxe!rael
