    Valoración: VERY GOOD

This album entitled Ghosts performed by San Francisco coming singer, guitar player and composer Bill Phillippe, is a collection of his own compositions on a pure folk style, together with some acoustic blues of the 20’s, that evoke the spirit of Mississippi Delta With a restrained but, at the same time, very passionate playing, only with his acoustic guitar and his voice, Bill does a true sorcery in every song where he evokes all Delta ghosts Any fan who enjoys with the mellow finger picking Mississippi John Hurt used to play or with he special intensity of Blind Willie Johnson, will feel completely satisfied and totally identified with this good representative of roots music called Bill Phillippe In his compositions, Bill explores the most characteristic subjects of blues world, with recurrent subjects like passionate or heartbreaking love and daily life problems that may happen in big cities but also in the countryside, and he does it in a very convincing way, as not in vain and for more than twenty years he has been singing and playing guitar in blues and folk circles of San Francisco Bay area
