Phil Keaggy
From Ohio, USA. The greatest guitarist
you've
never heard of, unless you closely follow Christian contemporary music
(CCM).

- "Crimson & Blue" (1994) - Great album
with catchy
Beatle-esque hooks. Filled with many beautiful songs and several
flat-out
rockers, including the very-bluesy "John The Revelator".
Thirteen
great vocal tunes. My favorite Phil Keaggy album.
- "Way
Back Home" (1994)
- "True
Believer" (1995)
- "220"
(1996)
- "Acoustic
Sketches" (1996)
- "On
the Fly" (1997)
- "Invention"
(1997) (with Wes King and Scott Dente) - Excellent CD
with many
standout tunes and no weak cuts. I was bowled over the first time
I
heard this. The guitar work from Keaggy, King, Dente is inspired
and
consistently amazing throughout the album, and it's clear that these
guys
had a blast making this music. The album is a mix of four vocal
cuts
and seven instrumentals. You need to track this one down...
- "Phil
Keaggy" (1998)
- "Majesty
& Wonder" (1999) - instrumental Christmas music.

Of Madrid" (2000)
