Thread Name: R.I.P. 'Papa' Phillips
Subject: RE: BS: R.I.P. 'Papa' Phillips
No Sins, I understand completely. John Phillips may have given us some good music, if you happen to like his stuff. He gave more though to himself.

"Livin' Large".....a phrase that came immediately to mind this afternoon when I heard he died. Whatever he gave to others, he gave more to himself. That he died of heart failure is no surprise. That he was 65 before it happened is amazing. Yet, as the passing of one dimishhes us all, then I feel some sorrow at his death...........but I feel much more for Mick's friend that I never met.
