Description
Esoteric Recordings’ releases of a newly remastered 5CD clamshell boxed set comprising the two original ‘Archive Collection’ albums by celebrated composer and Genesis founder member Anthony Phillips. Aside from his work as a solo artist, Anthony has been a composer of music for television for many years, going back as far as 1976 and those compositions form the backbone of these collections.

In March 1998 Anthony issued the first volume of ‘Archive Collection’. Due to the popularity of the release, a second ‘Archive Collection’ volume was issued in May 2004. These titles gathered together soundtrack compositions and rare archive recordings made by Anthony Phillips over the years. Anthony has now worked with his archivist Jon Dann to prepare this new boxed set edition of this wonderful music, compiling a new expanded version featuring an additional 28 tracks previously unreleased and rare archive material, including a 1966 demo by pre-Genesis band The Anon and also an additional CD of ‘The Masquerade Tapes’ featuring music inspired by the illustrated book by Kit Williams.

This new boxed set edition of ‘Archive Collections I And II’ features liner notes by Jon Dann and is a fine collection of music by one of Britain’s most imaginative and respected musicians. It is sure to appeal to aficionados of Anthony Phillips’ highly respected work.
