Ph.D.


"Is It Safe?" is the second studio album by the British rock band Ph.D., released in 1983. Ph.D. was a supergroup formed by Jim Diamond, Tony Hymas, and Simon Phillips, and they gained recognition for their hit single "I Won't Let You Down" from their self-titled debut album. "Is It Safe?" builds on the band's melodic rock and pop sound, featuring a combination of catchy hooks, polished production, and sophisticated arrangements. The album showcases the musicianship of its members, with Jim Diamond's soulful vocals, Tony Hymas's keyboard work, and Simon Phillips's drumming. While "Is It Safe?" did not achieve the same commercial success as their debut album, it contains notable tracks such as "I Didn't Know" and "The Wizard." The album maintains a balance between radio-friendly pop-rock and more intricate musical elements. Despite their relatively short-lived collaboration, Ph.D. left a mark on the music scene with their melodic and polished approach to rock. "Is It Safe?" represents a chapter in the band's discography and is appreciated by fans of 1980s rock and pop music.
