How can you go wrong with a musical icon of the past paying tribute to a musical icon of the present ? As a vocalist, Phil continues to astound me with not only his vocal capabilities, but just as much for making us all feel every note of every song that he chooses to deliver ... Phil, YOU-DA-MAN !!!

What an amazing voice range this man has. I only have one of his cd`s (If Only You Knew), but as of right now I`m on line looking for more to buy. I really like listening to him sing remakes and his own songs as well. Can`t say enough about his singing....but he`s really good.
