I don't know much of the Philo history. I do remember back when the label was new, that I would pay more attention to Philo releases than some other labels, because the quality of the artists was so high. Mary McCaslin's Way out West is a classic, as was Utah Phillips' Good Though. There was not a bad cut on Priscilla Herman's Water Lily. If I was looking for something unfamiliar that I might be interested in checking out the fact that Philo put it out put it towards the top of the list.
