Nashville, TN – Much to the excitement
of his fans worldwide, legendary country music singer/songwriter
Philip Claypool has released ‘Come On Back Home’, a new album poised
to be his most personal, revealing album yet. Says Philip, “I
wanted to do an album that expressed the core personality of who I am
as a singer on both fun and emotional levels. I also, wanted the
album to exhibit songs of inspiration, and on the other side of the
coin my love of a good gut-buster honkytonk song.”

The album is produced by veteran hit producer Michael Lloyd. Lloyd has produced more than
100 gold and platinum records, as well as many number one singles.
Says Michael, “I’ve been a record producer for many years, and it’s
been my good fortune to have been involved with many great artists
and projects. It’s not often that an artist comes along who is
special – but Philip Claypool is truly special. I’m amazed by his
talent. He has a unique way of touching you with his passion and
emotion, and on his latest CD, ‘Come On Back Home’, he’s at his
best.”

The album also features two additional
cuts from top Nashville songsmiths and a stellar rendition of Eddie
Arnold’s “You Don’t Know Me” that Claypool delivers with true
Memphis soul. Philip adds, “My producer Michael Lloyd and I
assembled the very best players in Nashville and we cut 14 tracks in
only 2 days. I had worked with most of the guys on my previous
projects and it was like a band getting back together. It was natural
and most of all fun! Many of the vocals on the album were cut live on
the first or second take.

“This former Curb artist of the 1990s
is back with a chin-up, positive-think rocker. I love his drawling
phrasing on this driving, relentless production. The icing on the
cake is that it is extremely well-written.” – Robert K. Oermann,
