Forty-five years have passed since “1984” shifted many a follower’s perspective of Anthony Phillips as performer, if not composer, as the artist primarily seen as a guitar player issued a keyboard-based album. And even though it wouldn’t be his last record of such a shape, with “Ivory Moon” and "SoirĂ©e" – two volumes of Ant’s “Private Parts & Pieces” series – found Phillips move to an acoustic instrument, any new platter of this sort still surprises his listeners. No doubt the same emotions will be reserved for the veteran’s forthcoming opus, titled “Gemini – Pieces For Piano” and scheduled for release on April 10th.
