"There was plenty of hot music served up in the course of Flip's 80th Birthday Party. For those of us lucky enough to have been there, this is a wonderful keepsake, and for those who were not, this might make you feel as though you had. And for all of us, it will remind us that Flip Phillips was a man who loved to play, and made us share that love. Joe, now you're really swinging a melody from the sky." - Dan Morgenstern, Director of the Institute of Jazz Studies at Rutgers University
