Checks made payable to: The Long MemoryI think that Utah Phillips would have been very pleased with this collection, and at the same time amused. Amused that the State of Utah will still have him around to tweak it’s sacred cows, and honored to have this tribute done by the folk music community of Utah.

Not familiar with Bruce “ Utah” Phillips, the Golden Voice of the Great Southwest, anarchist, organizer, humanitarian and teller of tall tales and outrageous stories..and so much more? Then welcome to the beginning of a life changing relationship, Follow these songs back to the wellspring that is Utah Phillips and find your history, your story, the community you may never have know that you shared. I think I speak for everyone on this compillation, and thousands of others, who’s lives have been changed for the better, who say.. welcome, come join us…you have a family here that has been waiting for you.

There is a worn bumper sticker on my guitar case that says “ I think…therefore I am dangerous." I smile and think of Utah Phillips every time I see it. Add the art and craft of a vaudvillian, the eye for detail of a historian, a heart as big as the western sky, and a fake clown nose ( and the will to use it),..and yes..I think that is a good start.

And there are the songs: songs that have become folk songs..the ultimate compliment to any songwriter. They are byways to pop culture, tips of icebergs , about something. Enjoy your journey!
