Phishing the archives


Phish has recently released "New Year's Eve 1995 - Live at Madison Square Garden" - a complete concert that is mixed and mastered to perfection. Anyone who knows me knows that I've been a big fan of the band for nearly a decade, so yeah I'm a hippy. With that aside, this concert is considered among many fans as the holy grail of all shows. Rolling Stone published this concert as one of the greatest concerts of the 90's. The band was at the peak of their creativity and their funky brand of psychedelia. The album includes many songs from a musical arrangement and story written by Trey Anastasio for his senior thesis in college. If there were a video, the lead into "Auld Lang Syne" would make more sense. "Strange Design" is the best radio-friendly Phish song to never hit airwaves, and this live version is flawless.
