Bei Gene Phillips auf TWIN HITS handelt es sich nicht um den Bluesgiarristen und -sänger Eugen Floyd Phillips, sondern um eine zufällige Namensgleichheit mit einem der Cover-Interpreten im Rahmen der PPX Produktionen. Da bei PPX oft üblich, würde ich auch bei Gene Phillips von einem Pseudonym ausgehen.
