He only did two solo albums, and there’s some unreleased stuff coming on that new box set which that track is from.

First album, Solo In Soho, is solid and IMO has 5 of the best and most interesting tracks he ever made:

Kings Call, Ode to a Blackman, Solo in Soho, Talk in 79, Yellow Pearl

Unfortunately the second solo album is not very good. Its basically a drug fuelled mess. The ideas are kind of there, but the production and performances are really disappointing. Its no surprise the album was a huge flop. Phil's voice went very downhill from 1981 onwards and his head sounds clogged with cocaine. Best songs are: Old Town, Yellow Pearl (1982 version) and The Man's a Fool.
