Anthony Phillips & Harry Williamson

After leaving Genesis , Phillips studied classical music (especially classical guitar ) and collaborated on recordings by Harry Williamson, Mike Rutherford, Phil Collins and Camel , among others. His first solo album , The Geese and the Ghost , was released in 1977. Complied with pastoral ballads and other long compositions , the album was released in the rise of punk , and had unsatisfactory sales.

The following year, Phillips released her second album ( Wise After the Event) and the third in 1979 entitled Sides . Although these two recordings had a more commercial orientation , neither were very successful. Despite this , he continued to work alongside more experimental albums like Privates Parts and Pieces ( which was published along with Sides ) and its sequels, released in the eighties and nineties.

In 1981 , Phillips began writing new material with Andrew Latimer of Camel leader , and was a standout on the album The Single Factor band of English interpreter. Two years later he published the album Invisible Men , more pop-oriented than their previous work . Phillips said on this record that the recording was " horribly wrong " because of the pressures of the music , and the commercial success eventually rejected in favor of more experimental songs .

Anthony Phillips is involved in some musical projects , including a variety of soundtracks in England. In the mid -nineties , he released an album titled The Living Room Concert with acoustic versions of previous material. It also provided footage for the first Genesis box set , Genesis Archive 1967-75 , released in 1998.
