Phil's composition, "Les Gens Simples" begins with some soft scat singing from Phil. Never overwhelming in his style, and always remaining balanced with the rest of the trio, Phil picks up his trombone and begins a beautiful solo. Tasteful, intimate and projecting his feelings at just the right moments before guitarist Frederic Favarel slips in a few notes while bassist Hein Van de Geyn offers some beautiful strumming alongside Frederic before Phil enters again with some more scat singing to bring out this piece.
