Lifelong fan of Phil…so nice to see another face behind that music…thank you, Leland. Thank you, Jesus Christ
Phil's artistry is only outpaced by his humanity. A truly sweet human being.
"Take Me Closer" is a fabulous song, with a WONDERFUL guitar solo in it. I've loved that song for years.
leland on bass caught my attention on this particular song. he's tight. if he reads these i'll say that i've see him and his beard at aldi's on lake ave. i live near the honeybaked ham store.
Another daily dose of Lee Sklar wonderful!. RIP David Lindley
Being our age was no easier for those before us, but we now have an experiential front row seat. Let us harvest our life’s experience to make sense of our place in the dance of our years.
Art will transcend our human frailness and place its limits in context.
Thank you Leland for sharing your thoughts with ours.
I was 19 and went to a Harry Chapin show in Youngstown Ohio. Phil Keaggy was the opening act. 1971 or 72.
I'd love to tell the story of that night. It would be too long for a comment. I'm sure Mr. Keaggy could tell the same story as me. A once in a lifetime experience shared by an audience member. I would feel honored if my singular memory could be verified. I'm running out of time too.
It's almost shocking to see the sheer amount of music that Phil Keaggy has put out over the years. He has been consistently prolific.
Thank you for the Beautiful Inspirations of Phil Keaggy. "For Every Door That Closes, Another Opens." Randy Schiffer adds, "Free as a Bird Now. . ." Thank you. 🎶 Listening to the 🎶 Music Helps. Thank you, and "Carry On". Your 2023 (imagine that) tour with the Lyle Lovett 2023 Acoustic Tour has been Wonderful, a Blessing. . .
I first heard Glass Harp in 69 and at 12 yrs old on the TV in Cleveland and was completely blown away by Phil . I was hooked ! I met David Lindley in Cleveland some years back and have always treasured it I am sorry for your loss .
Phil did a solo show at a local church that had amazing acoustics. He was using an early, but still really sophisticated rackmount looper; absolute mastery...
So many musicians of my time have passed this year. I just heard of the passing of Gary Rossington this morning. I was blessed to be able to hear Phil Keaggy perform solo in a small Church in Kent Ohio in the early 70's. What a talent. My heart felt condolences to you.
Lee..., I'm not the only one very gratified to see you seriously appreciating and converting to your audience..., the gifted genius of Phil Keaggy!
I've followed him since tagging along with my older brothers from outside Rochester NY to Freeville, ny outside of Ithaca to a beautiful group of hippie Jesus people where Phil lived and cut his first solo album, "What A Day" !!
His consortium with AMAZING musicians called, 'Emerging' was an amazing jazzy rock record that stands the test of time like virtually ALL of Phil's work and catalog!
Your willingness to keep people who may never have run into his work is to be commended and it's a clear testament to the gifted writer, lyricist, composer and over-the-top, world class PLAYER both electric AND acoustic that Phil truly IS!
YOUR bass playing with Phil is like...., the cream on the top, as they say!
Sincere gratitude's and thanks to you...
Oh, and please reach out to Rick Beato and have him both get acquainted with and interview the great Phil Keaggy! @rickbeato
WOW Leland time flies when your having fun. So sorry for all the losses of friends during this tour. Always in our thoughts never forgotten. ❤🤗😊& of course in your book!😀
Phil is the best there ever was and he is truly humble and centered.
I have always loved Phil. I discovered him with the Crimson and Blue album not long after I graduated high school, and have been a fan ever since. The live album How The West Was Won really got me. Got to see him live a few times and he just mesmerized me.
Man, I miss music being like this; melodic, meaningful, unique, with more substance than pretense.
Lee, I’m so saddened by the loss of your friends. I only knew Michael Rhodes through his work with Joe Bonamassa, but he was an arresting presence onstage and such a fantastic player. A great loss to the music world and those who loved him
And David Lindley. One of the greats. His work with Jackson Browne is how I knew of him but I see he was a renowned session player
I’m just so damn sorry, Leland. I guess the flip side of being around as long as you have been and being the kind of person you are, making friends with all you meet and work with, is that you have many more friends to lose. A mixed blessing, but a measure of a life lived fully and well. 😔
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and the great music! It’s always such a pleasure to listen to you!
Love these ditty's Sir, met Phil early 60's 2nd Glass Harp gig, many times from there on in Cincinnati-Tri-State Area, worked at Christian Counterpart Studios, with Bill Talbot, Richie Furary, Stephen Stills, Carl Gregory, Randy Stonehill, many more...keep it up you kill on Bass!!
Thank you Lee for all you do. As a life long guitar player I would just like the world to know how truly gifted of a guitarist Phil Keggy is on his mastery of the Les Paul. Got to talk with Phil on several occasions and was just so amazed how humble and personal Phil was to be with in his service to the Lord.😊
Hello Lee. I sure can understand how you feel. I've lost a number of close friends myself the last two years and it hurts. Try to enjoy the rest if the tour and getting back home. Take good care!
Saw Phil in London in 1980. Wow. I was 17. Big influence on my best mate Matt Gillard and his Uncle David.
Loved David Lindley on Trail of Tears (Talbot Brothers) with you :)
I was very sad to learn of Jim Gordon's death in prison 5 days ago on the 13th of March. Very sad story.
I love Phil Keaggy's music. He is a beautiful human being. Love Broke Thru is a wonderful album. Thanks for this 'Encore', Leland.
😎 Phil Keaggy, yay! Hope you enjoy the last week of Lyle’s acoustic tour. I bet you’re looking forward to walking through your own front door. I can imagine you’ll have a couple of pups crawling all over you. Don’t know how anyone else feels but music is a comfort to me and it has certainly helped lately. Thank you! Stay safe!🌻🦋
Music and literature has kept me sane in a world seemingly gone mad. ✌
Hey, Gina! 👋😁
Gina. 😊
From a recently released album by Iris Dement which is a helping hand.

@@artemisXsidecross thank you! 😊
Thank you for sharing your heart today Leland. This music has encouraged me since my youth and I hope it encourages you today! I sit with you today in your grief and Brother keep doing what you do 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Your bass on Take Me Closer was amazing and put me in a happy place; so necessary these days. Thanks for that.
I'm fully aware that this video is a couple of weeks old now, but thank you from the bottom of my heart for posting it.
In February 21st my mom, who was also my only real and lasting human family (thank God for my cats and my dog, who's, unfortunately, is also reaching for the other side), died before her 72th birthday a few days later in March 1st.
She was also my sister (we even had a very cretin joke that, if one of us killed someone for any reason, the other was going to help getting rid of the body), my daughter (I used the "father hat" many times when necessary) and, most of all, my best friend and confidant in this universe.
She told me the mistakes she made, I've told her the mistakes I'd made and, we never judged one another, just tried to guide in a better, loving direction.
My entire family rolled into one person.
It's been a month and I'm an adult with no family of my own (as I said, besides my four legged angels), who's currently unemployed, living in a rented house which I'm unable to afford and a bit afraid of tomorrow, but only a tiny bit, bizarrely, since the major blow already happened.
I was always afraid of dead bodies, but she died in the hospital while I was holding her hand behind the blankets. Her heart just stopped during the visit and that was it.
Strangely enough, I feel grateful that, at least, I was there for the last moments of her physical life.
Never in nearly 38 years I've visited a cemetery, much less on my own. Strange that my "debut" had to be the hardest.
No frills or ceremony, just the casket lowered into the dirt, the fastest way, like she wanted.
I'm not afraid of dying (I'm not trying, also), but it's tough to lost someone we love.
She's alright, I guess, I hope, but I'm feeling like walking baby steps when I should be running a marathon to get my financial life in order.
One day at a time and this video is therapy for me.
Once again, thank you dearly and may your heart be consoled and that the kind and funny memories of your friends (I was also shocked about all of them, especially David Lindley) take the place of pain.
You're not only a great musician, but a great human being, first and foremost.
George.
Hey Lee, I just don’t know how you do it! You’ve got the energy level of someone half your age. Then after losing 7 friends in just a short period of time one would think the emotional trauma of that would take its toll. But no, here you are hanging in there with business as at hand. I’m sure sad for your loss my friend but admire your strength❤️
Hi Leland,
I want to thank you for your contributions here on You Tube and of course your vast musical contributions. You are definitely a national musical treasure and the stories you share from being a contributor on so many great recordings and performances is always interesting. You mentioned “The Second Chapter of Acts” and if I am not mistaken, around 1977 Phil Keaggy did a live recording with some of the S.C.O.A. that was called “How the West was One”. To me, to this day, this is one of the “must listen to” recording’s featuring the virtuosity of Phil Keaggy. The songs, vocals, harmonies, musicianship that was displayed along with the message on that recording is just stunning. To anyone who has never heard it, find it, and listen. You will be glad you did!
PLAY WITH BACH, AND YOUR ARE HUMILATED. Play with Phil Keaggy, and he makes you better. Phil is a servant. Despite your skill level. Godliness vs self-centeredness.
Love you Lee. You continue to add to my song lists wow great spiritual vibes. I always go to gratitude when our people pass. Thankful for the magical moments we shared. The music and melodies live on in the body of creativity and recordings that remain. We can always revisit them until it’s our time and we meet again on the other celestial side. Take care much love and Aloha from Munich
Leland great choice of Phil as we reflect upon our own mortality. I’ve seen Phil many time and hope to do so again in October! Ditto on the recent losses. Every day is a gift! That’s why they call it the ‘present’? Be safe and blessings on you! Peace!
I finally had a chance to check out your RUclips videos. I was at the second Clearwater show this past week. I really enjoyed the show. You guys as always, put in a great show. So sorry to hear about the loss of so many friends in the past few months. I went through a period like this ten years ago that a large group of people I knew most of my life died and my father wound up being among them. It was a hard time to lose so many people that were in my life left this mortal coil. You all be safe as you finish up this tour.
Nice to hear you. Time makes that power to hold on. You never Lost them.
Henry Kaiser posted some home videos of he and Lindley in Madagascar for the recording project with local musicians that produced the wonderful World out of Time recording series. There's video of them learning tunes and playing stuff on the fly with the local musicians, as well as Lindley telling stories about the trip; and a previously unseen solo performance of Lindley playing Bon Temps Rouler on Weissenborn lap steel. You can find them on the Cuneiform Records channel on RUclips.
A lot of people considered Phil to be the best guitarist in the world, and I somewhat agree. Both electric and acoustic... he's phenomenal.
Thank you, Legend, I mean, Leland!
Lee, you were the first person I thought of when I heard about both David and Michael. I knew you knew them and are a very empathetic person and may take it hard. Be good to yourself!
Take care of you dear one........enjoy being home
Tomorrow: Birchmere for two nights, Alexandria, VA.
No looper pedal without Phil
🐺🐺. "Never give up, never slow down, never grow old, never ever die young." My Mom lived long enough to outlive most of the people she'd known. Painful, but much better than the alternative. The more people you know the more of an issue it is and you know WAY more people than the average person, which is right for you.
Hope you get to relax and get some rest for a minute.
Lee, Did you play bass on "Time?" Didn't realize.
So sad strory,,keep it there
I wore my copy out jamming lead to it!
How do you keep a schedule straight probably booked a year in advance for records, side gigs, charity events? How does everyone in Immediate Family all manage to get clear for recording or shows. Do you even rehearse?
Sorry to hear just now that we've lost Gary rossington of Lynyrd Skynyrd, seems we are loosing more every day
'Disappointment,' so Phil is into early Dead, yes?
Phil Keaggy is certainly a great guitarist, a beautiful singer and today’s selection shows how strong his faith is, definitely worth the encore.
Everyone dies but their legacy lives on.
Jesus Bless You Leland sorry for You that so many of Your friends have passed. We never know when God will call us home, so it's always best to be ready to meet our Maker. God Bless You Brother. 🕊🙏💗
Love Phil Keaggy! Thanks for sharing and getting his name back out there!
I saw Phil Keaggy when he opened up for Boz Scaggs when he was with his group Glass Harp. Thy were phenomenal. Keaggy guitar playing was one to be in awed with.A performance not to be forgotten. So sad to hear all of these passings.And yes enjoy that sandwich, for sure. Thank you for this music as I have never heard it before. Stay safe ,be safe Leland 🙏 Sklar. PEACE 🙏 ☮. Enjoy your tour have enjoyed all your backstage pass into the venues greatly appreciated.
Mr. Lindley will forever be remembered as a phenomenal musician, person and lyricist.
R.I.P Mr Lindley. You're much loved😎👍❤🖖
😎👍❤🖖
Love Brother
My sincere Condolences on all your friends that have passed. They live on through all the work they’ve done….
Today is the First anniversary of my Moms passing so everyone in my family is kind of quiet right now. Dealing with her passing in their own way..
You know you’re a cherished gem in so many peoples heart. ,,,,. Please take Care. Grief is hard on our heart. If you need a break from all of us behind this your subscribers. We will wait , .. I can see you hugging your pups soon. Plus being in your own Bedmust sound good. I always miss mine I never sleep well. But I love my room.
This is long but I see sorrow in your eyes.
Love. Take care….
Yup.Enjoy every sandwich.Ahhh some Keaggy.
The CCM scene back then was really rich...thanks for reminding me and sharing your thoughts. It's a real gem!
I had the good fortune of working with Michael Rhodes and even spending time with him in private ...what a sweet guy and cool cat
I find Phil Keaggys music to be very positive and it has a healing touch ! Thank You As Always !
💔 You've had quite a run of losses. Yes, we are getting older, but it doesn't matter when it comes to the pain of losing loved ones.
It's wonderful to have the musical memories right there. Thanks for taking us along on your ride! 🫶
Wow, Phil Keaggy... took me back when I was in choir in '76. Good choice of music for a day like today. Thanks for all the joy you give.
I grew up listening to Glass Harp!
Me when working at an at risk youth center. Me, teahcing guitar. A new guy comes in. Him: " Wow, your a great player" Me: "No".. Him : "My dad plays ", You're good. Me: Who's your dad? Larrry Norman. Me: Who's he? (I'm an ass, Don't listen to christian rock, Yet knew every one of his songs) Turns out his neighbor was my guitat teacher John Doan. Crazy
Never hear about Phil anymore, I'd forgotten about him.
With all these losses...and a Christian artist...well, John 3:16. If this is true, then there is hope, not to the unknown god, but real truth to the known God. Choose wisely.
I guess we all have the consolation of knowing all these departed musicians left us indelible music that will last forever. Peace and Love.
enjoy every sandwich indeed! Miss Warren so much -thanks for everything Lee
In the summer of 1977 my then-wife and I put up a couple who were touring with a group of Christian musicians that were playing at a local church. The husband was the drummer, Jim Delong. He and I had a couple of interesting conversations about the burgeoning CCM movement, with Jim stating his disappointment with the quality of many of the recordings. He was not familiar with Phil Keaggy, so I pulled out Love Broke Thru and let him listen to it at his leisure. Like so many of us, he was blown away by the musicianship and production quality. Fast forward to 1981 when I went to our local record store to pick up a copy of Phil Keaggy's latest album, Town to Town. Looking down the list of personnel whose name do I see? Jim Delong! It's a small world and, happily, it's filled with extremely talented people. Thanks for sharing these Keaggy songs, Lee. Just one more thing that makes you great!
I'm so sorry, Lee. Definitely an emotional tour for you. Sending my love to you. ❤️ Great tunes! 🎶 Love, "Disappointment." Catchy tune.
My dear friend, Richard Souther, played with Phil on solo albums and with 2nd Chapter of Acts. BTW, David Pack's wife also passed recently.
Not a fan of Keaggy's "songs" with lyrics, but his solo instrumental albums are peerless.
Even Salvation Army band?
Another sad day in the rock and roll world age 71 we lost the last surviving member of the mighty Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Gary rossington has checked out.
Unfortunately throughout the years he had a big heart attack in 2015 a lot of heart surgeries through the years which sidelined him on tours many times he had to take hiatuses from the band.
But the last surviving original member of the ill-fated plane crash.
Course you could forget him and another Skynyrd survivor back in the 80s had a pretty good sound with the Rosington Collins band.
Kind of like old David lindley though he was sick off and on for quite a few years to unfortunately.
Free as a bird now.
May Gary Rossington 🙏 Be With the Angels and Rest in Peace and Forever Light Neverending
Time marches on. RIP to all
Thanks Lee, good night 🖐🏻
Trying to wrap my mind around not being able to hear Mr. Lindley’s distinctive and beautiful playing as time and music moves forward…….😢
Thank you so much much Mr. Sklar. I have been a long-time fan of your bass playing, especially lice.
Phil Keaggy was an idol for me as an aspiring guitarist.... years later, I got a bad case of Milaria while I was in Africa.
Songs like 'Love Broke Through' and 'Let Everything Else Go' cranking in my headphones were what helped me get through that and alive today.
Thank-You!
*lice is meant to be Toto. Daggon auto correct
Beauiful bass work my friend...blessings
Gary Rossington has just passed away
Hey Lee. Life has its struggles and all we can do is think about the good times. Easy for me to write this but my heart is with you. My condolences good sir.
Thank you for sharing Phil's music. Phil and I have been friends for many years. I was honored to put him together with Tony Levin and Jerry Marotta for their project The Bucket List....was an amazing time resulting in amazing music. Bless you Leland!
I gotta tell ya Leland, you look healthier when your on the road. Hats off to Leland! Keep moving!. Yeah, I was fortunate enough to see Mr. Lindley once at Summerfest in Milwaukee, Wi on Jackson's Hold Out tour, summer of 80 or 81. RIP David, you were phenomenal!. Have fun on the rest of your tour.
I've still got that album on vinyl - which means it's about 45 years old !! Thanks for highlighting Phil Keaggy again.
Hang in their Lee, You are loved.
Hey there, Lee and everyone!
👋
@@artemisXsidecross Hey dude!
Nobody will ask about the giant 🐘 in the room?
It’s very sad , sorry for all your losses.
Leland, I had no idea you worked with Phil and Mylon. Talking about this takes me back to when CCM was making such an impact. by the way , i am 66 years old.
Literal tears as I sang along to Abraham...took me back to being a kid who wanted to be a musician. Now, as a musician and producer, it's nice to know you've been an inspiration from my earliest musical memories. Thank you!
So sorry Leland for your losses.
Thanks for sharing this. I met Phil about 50 years ago now. What a humble, talented man. Thank you for all your contributions to the soundtrack of my life. They have been many. I'm praying for comfort for you in your losses. Thanks again.
Sometimes I am reminded of the lyrics of the Townes Van Zandt song White Freight Liner Blues.
I've got bad news from Houston, all of my friends are dying
I've got bad news from Houston, all of my friends are dying
I've got bad news from Houston, all of my friends are dying
White Freight Liner stealing away my mind
We get to an age where life stops giving and starts taking. So sorry for your losses.
That solo at 12:30... superb!
Take your time
So sorry for your losses.
Morning Leland
Hey!
I found a video of one of your acoustic shows in Texas. Now Pants is Overrated has become the 'chanson du jour'. My Mum turns 100 on Saturday. Now there ya go. Born in March 1923. Looking forward to seeing her, hopefully covid negative by then
Sending her birthday wishes 🎂❤️
@@lelandsklar6363 I will indeed.
Brother, you are shooting this video on the day I turn 63. First time I saw Phil and probably you, was in the very early 80s in Atlanta Georgia. I new Mylon back then when he was a janitor at Mount Paran, as he was trying to get cleaned up. The 2nd Chapter of Acts at the Fox Theater was a Gift.
I've had a blast watching you share your Gift with so many of the Greats.
Jackson Browne's Running on Empty album got worn out 😂😂
Heavy Red Pill and hard to swallow the amount of folks who's parents worked for the Military Intelligence Community back in the day.
The late David McGowan wrote about Laurel Canyon, and its antics, and he suddenly died 😏
Randy Stonehill got it correct, It's a Great Big Stupid World, and he Turned 30 a Long time ago 😂.
As I listen to this several months after you made it, I know that sense of loss you are experiencing. I've seen way too many friends and young people who have died suddenly. The Talbot Brothers sang about Seeing with New Eyes☝️👍
I was telling Stella, This ain't Hollywood and we are Only Visiting this Planet.
Hopefully Townsend was right,We The People, won't get Fooled Again.
Brother, it's been a honor to be on this Journey Home with You 🙏 VIVA CRISTO REY
😃😃
👋
@@artemisXsidecross 👋👋
You know I just re-listened to this for a 3rd time. I think when Dan Peek left America Phil would've been a nice fit with those guys. At times he sounded a lot like Dewey Bunnell.
In empathy with you and many of us! I have lost a dozen or so friends in recent years, most of them men in their 50s. And, like you, I think it should be 90s! Music is our salvation and grace.
I wish
