Composer and producer Stu Phillips has enjoyed one of the longest and most far-ranging careers of the rock & roll era, working not just in popular music but also in film and television on his way to amassing a body of work as eclectic as any of his contemporaries. Born September 9, 1929, Phillips studied at New York City's High School of Music and Art, followed by a stint at the Eastman School of Music, where he also moonlighted as an arranger for the Rochester Civic Orchestra. He entered show business proper as a copyist for television's legendary Milton Berle Texaco Hour before landing with Capitol Records and assisting composer Harry Revel and theremin virtuoso Dr. Samuel J. Hoffman on the space age pop landmark MUSIC FROM OUTER SPACE. In 1974 Phillips landed at Universal Studios, where in the years to follow he composed the music for television hits including THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN, QUINCY, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA and KNIGHT RIDER. He published his autobiography, ‘Stu Who?’ in 2003.
Originally released on compact disc in 2010, BSX Digital brings STU PHILLIPS TRIPLE FEATURES back to the marketplace, featuring music composed by Stu Phillips. The music has been newly mastered by James Nelson at Digital Outland and retains the original liner notes by producer Bruce Kimmel.
