MUSIC FRIDAY!
I Belong To You
Spend My Life With You
- Phil Keaggy
Ph'lip Side (1980)
Phil Keaggy, one of the most, if NOT the greatest, guitarists of all time! Phil has been around since at least the late '60s. I "discovered" Phil in the early 1970's, and I am glad I did.
His sweet songs just captured my heart, enduring me to his music for decades. I know I have all his CDs, and a few vinyl albums at that (including this one, Ph'lip Side, which has to be my favorite), along with What A Day and Love Broke Through.
And he has been playing his guitars with just nine fingers! (Phil Keaggy - bio)
Thanks Phil!

Phil Keaggy and Steve Martin - 2004
In 2004, Phil graciously accepted the invitation to come and play during the memorial service of Derek Prince, an event we had as staff in honor of Derek's passing at the age of 88. It was held at Forest Hill Church in Charlotte, North Carolina. Other guest speakers included John Hagee, Mahesh Chavda and Jim Croft.
Afterwards I had the honor of taking Phil to the Charlotte airport, after this photo above was taken.
Phil played two songs during the service, and spoke highly of the influence of Derek's Bible teaching - his love for God's Word and Israel. Both of these foundational teachings were "instrumental" in Phil's discipled, Christian life he said.
Such a pleasant guy! On the way to his flight in the car he gave me a CD demo of his next album, with just a hand written label on it. Wish I still had that one! (Maybe I do. I tend to save every memory I can.)
Be blessed in your listen to Phil's music and heart!
Steve Martin
