Thanks to all of you for your interest. Phil was very sloppy as the years progressed but the rap about his guitar playing is misplaced. He had an extremely fluid strumming style which could quickly change to picking as in " There But For Fortune ".I once saw Phil restart a tune 5 times to retune his guitar. For his time he was quite competent.

If you listen to a lot of his work as I have to my son's collection, you can't help but be impressed with how clever and poetic he was and with the volume of his work. " I have a gem of a tape made in 1966 at his Montreal concert when he was at his peak. It contains tunes like " Outside of a Small Circle of Friends" and " The Party " that he ruined with orchestral accompaniment on the album " Tape From California ". "Flower Lady " captured the 60's mood but it's still relevant today. I don't think he ever got the recognition he deserved.
The play was written by a theatre professor at Malaspina College in Nanaimo , BC, Canada by Ross Desprez but it's probably not readily available.
