Shawn Phillips

This week on Art of the Song we bring you another in our Concerts and Conversations series recorded live in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Our guest, Shawn Phillips is perhaps one of most fascinating and enigmatic musicians to come out of the early-1970s singer/songwriter boom. He performed with such legendary musicians as Donovan and the Beatles. The mere fact that Shawn was a musician as much as a singer and 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 — to anyone else's expectations, allowed him to hold onto a large and dedicated cult following, without ever achieving the stardom that his talent seemed to merit.
