**** July 12, 2003<br><br> This is an incredibly diverse project. Phil's 75 year odl uncle, Dave "Duke" Keaggy, faxed Phil some of the poetry he'd written over the years. As a gift, Phil put many of the pieces to music and decided to share it with us. A very colorful mix, Uncle Duke has everything from a talking paranoid bird, a two-headed duck, tales of a pool shark, stories of army life during world war II and a headstone returned to it's owner's gravesite. Stylisticly, there's country, techno, straight ahead rock and much more. <br><br> There isn't much in the way of a common thread among songs or styles, but this is definitely an enjoyable CD. There were only 1500 copies pressed and this has become one of Phil's most saught-after projects. If you can find a copy at a reasonable price, go for it! You won't regret it.<br> Stephanie Bargenquast Phil Keaggy Fans Online - <a href="http://www.PKfans.com">www.PKfans.com</a>
