With great deliberation, 19 songs made it to Philip’s Demo XXIII compilation.  This year, he went through the extra steps to record them once from a Vinyl source, and once from a digital source.  He has yet to sit down with our Board of Music Advisors for a critical listening session between the two but he swore the difference is VERY audible.  As he left for the weekend’s show, armed with a stack to gift his friends at CAF, he was kind enough to leave one of each behind and gave the office staff an assignment to do our critical listening and report the result to him.
