Phil Manzanera
Phil Manzanera (born Philip Geoffrey Targett-Adams, 31 January 1951) is a British musician and record producer. He was the lead guitarist with Roxy Music,801, and Quiet Sun. In 2006 Manzanera co-produced David Gilmour's album On an Island and played in Gilmour's band for tours in Europe and North America. He wrote and presented a series of 14 one-hour radio programmes for station Planet Rock entitled The A-Z of Great Guitarists.
Early years (1951–1970)
Manzanera was born in London to a Colombian mother and an English father, and spent most of his childhood in different parts of the Americas, including Hawaii, Venezuela, Colombia, and Cuba. It was in Cuba that the young Manzanera, aged six, encountered his first guitar, a Spanish guitar owned by his mother. His earliest musical accomplishments were Cuban folk songs inspired by the Cuban Revolution.
In Venezuela the eight-year-old Manzanera started experimenting with the sounds of the electric guitar. During his teenage years he was absorbing the twin influences of 1960s rock and roll and Latin American rhythms of merengue music, cumbia, and particularly the boleros of the Mexican Armando Manzanero.

Diamond Head
by: Phil ManzaneraBright lights and the city are all that I need
Got away from the country life they're all friends to me
But the roar of the street and the cold window pane
Keeps me from you.
Sidewalk talk in the bitter night brings a kid down so
fast
Sit in bars watching cars I'm just hoping to see you pass
But the scream off the street and the cold window pane
Keeps me from you.
Some way one day we're on our own
Put out my hands and touch your face
Some way can't say I'm all alone
I don't recognise this time or place
I see your face in Strange sights in the car headlights
of the shop front display
See me glide on the city tide am I stealing your heart
away
Or does the lure of the street and this cold window pain
Keep me from you.
