	The Instruments of Washington Phillips
		Phillips would have had to re-string and re-tune dramatically to achieve the tuning used on his recordings.
		This was 85-year-old Earl Phillips, a second cousin (with a PHD in Economics), who definitely recalled a homemade instrument, and gave me some pretty descriptive clues in a phone conversation on April 16, 2003.
		When Phillips "wanted to sing loud, he would raise his head and throw back his shoulders.” Therefore, “he’d only look at the (zither) at the start, then not need to look." The instrument was definitely "made by him (Washington Phillips)," and a neighbor had said, it "looked like part of a piano."

	EXHUMING THE LEGEND OF WASHINGTON PHILLIPS
		For the most part, however, Phillips is virtually unknown except to a cult of rabid musicologists, who revel in the mystique of the man who emerged out of nowhere as a fully-formed artist and just as quickly disappeared.
		The "real" Washington Phillips returned to the farming life in the fl settlement of Simsboro, content to play for neighbors and churchgoers until 1954, when, at age 74, he died of head injuries suffered from a fall down the stairs at the welfare office in nearby Teague.
		That the Washington Phillips who was gospel's great disappearing act would take his eternal nap in an unmarked grave seems about par for this course in music history.

	CMT.com : Washington Phillips : Biography
		Recent studies suggest that Phillips may have actually played a modified fretless zither on his recordings rather than a true dolceola, and in fact, he may have been playing two such instruments at the same time, one with the left hand and one with his right.
		It was long thought that Phillips was committed to a state mental institution in Austin, Texas less than a year after his last 78 was recorded, and that he spent the final years of his life confined there until his death in 1939 of tuberculosis at the age of 47.
		Whichever version is accurate, Phillips never recorded again and his 16 surviving recordings from the late '20s remain one of the most distinctive in all of early blues and gospel.

	Washington Phillips
		If you are among the growing number of people who have discovered the recordings of Washington Phillips and would like to know more about his mysterious instrument, you are in the right place.
		For decades, it was believed that Phillips accompanied himself on a dolceola when he recorded, and until recently there was good reason for that belief.
		I have spent a good deal of time listening very carefully to the recordings of Washington Phillips and in turn experimenting with variously configuring actual Phonoharp instruments of the models Phillips is holding in the photo.

		Phillips sits on his back porch and looks at you from under hooded eyes, with only the vaguest hint of a chipmunk smile.
		The Bushes settled in a west Texas city that, far from being the cowboy wildcatter's paradise of political myth, was a leafy enclave thick with Ivy League scions, street names such as Princeton and Harvard, and enough Wall Street gilt to keep everyone in country club fees.
		Phillips elaborates on this critique during an interview.

	Washington Phillips CD study
		Bottom line: On his 16 extant recorded tracks, Washington Phillips is not playing a Dolceola, but a common fretless zither (most likely one or both of the Phonoharps in the photo), albeit with a unique, self-invented stringing and tuning pattern.
		The 5th is Phillips' 85-year-old second cousin Earl Phillips, who provided many intriguing clues in a thirty minute phone conversation I had with him on April 1, 2003 (I have Michael Corcoran to thank for his leg-work and providing several phone numbers).
		Phillips only occasionally mutes melody notes, and is probably “palming” or damping the bass and chords as they change.

		Phillips was what they called a "jackleg" preacher, one who received the calling to spread the word but hadn't been ordained.
		That Phillips was well-versed in the varying beliefs and customs of different churches is evident in "Denomination Blues," his most famous song via covers by Sister Rosetta Thorpe (who renamed it "That's All") and Ry Cooder.
		That the Washington Phillips who was gospel's great disappearing act would take his eternal nap in the anonymous ground seems about par for this course in music history.

		A particular area of interest is deciphering the evolution of Venus, an interesting exercise to explain the surface geology, topography, gravity field, and crater distribution in terms of the thermal and magmatic evolution of the planet.
		Specifically, we propose that crustal plateaus formed early in the planet's history, when the lithosphere was thin, whereas volcanic rises form in the present era of thick lithosphere.
		We have suggested [ Phillips and Hansen, 1998] that there could be a coupled, positive feedback between climate evolution and interior evolution, specifically that release of volatiles from partial melting would enhance the atmospheric greenhouse and raise the surface temperature.
