Phil Turns Sixty




Friday night, June the 5th, I celebrated the passing of my 60th birthday with friends at Common Ground. The actual May 26th date had arrived while I was accompanying Julie and her students in Guatemala. I did receive a firecracker salute and "tres leches" birthday cake that day, but the real party was celebrated this past weekend. On the way down to Logan on Friday, I had a song show up. That song, taught to the backup singers available at the party is the subject of the following video. Second lead is, Rita Preston. Third lead, Andrew Weiland. Fourth is my dear buddy Nick Weiland. Their verses are improved. This was the first and only take. Wish you all could have been there to join in.
