Phish may be gone, but the beloved Vermont jam band lives on in this concert series. LIVEPHISH 07/06/98 presents singer/guitarist Trey Anastasio and his fearless crew as they astound an audience in Prague shortly before the release of 1998's THE STORY OF THE GHOST. Highlights of the two-disc set include an expansive take on "Ghost" (from the abovementioned album) and the bluegrass-tinged "Train Song."
Tracklist
Phish
Of all the jam bands to emerge in the late-1980s and early-'90s, Phish were widely regarded as the inheritors to the Grateful Dead's throne. While the group's jazzy, mercurial sound was more progressive and light-hearted than the Dead's, Phish's massive, adoring following modeled themselves after the vagabond Dead Heads, calling themselves "Phish Heads." After letting off steam through various side projects (Oysterhead, Vida Blue) and sabbaticals, Phish finally called it quits in 2004.
