Gregory Phillips replaced the original actor who played Saul King in the Bernard Lee TV series King of the River. He also was one of the original Freewheelers. He also recorded some singles and made a few films including Adolf Hitler-My Part in His Downfall and The Virgin Soldiers. However he doesn’t seem to have made any TV shows or films since 1972. His first major role was playing the son of Judy Garland and Dirk Bogarde in the British made “I Could Go on Singing” in 1963. A few years later he featured in “The Virgin Soldiers”. 

JohnKearney did an an excellent interview with Gregory, in which he tells of his acting career, the ‘groovy people’ he knew on the Sixties scene and how he came to sign to the Immediate label. At the time he was running a music therapy clinic for psychiatric patients.

John kindly gave permission for an extract of his interview to be reproduced. Here, Greg is speaking of his friendship with Steve Marriott of the Small Faces.
