I have the album Junta, i really like it and i really dislike it Ying Yang if that make sence


If Junta annoys you, you'd probably like the following 3 albums better. Junta DOES have most of their epic songs though, and a lot of instrumental workouts. Lawn Boy is a bit weird and eclectic, but has some great vocal harmonies and more epic compositions. A Picture of Nectar is a very jazzy album, and Rift is their prog concept album.

This Shred made possible by the people at Probably Popsicles. They're Probably Good!

I am seeing a lot of Phish plays in What Are You Listening To Now thread.  I will be doing the same in the next week or so.  Only Tom Petty, Phideaux, and Anthony Phillips come between me and Phish.


I'm enjoying their studio albums right now. I don't usually listen to the studio albums, but when I was new to Phish, and getting into prog rock, I used to listen to their first 4 studio albums, as well as The Story of the Ghost and Farmhouse, all the time. So I have a bit of nostalgia with those albums.
The Story Of Ghost and Farmhouse were my introduction studio albums to Phish.  Those and the live album Slip Stitch and Pass.


Those 2, plus the first 4 studio albums all remind me of summer (especially summer '05). Never got into SS&P, but I've heard a lot of Phish shows anyway. Phish are actually the reason I discovered PA, because I was looking for album reviews and Google led me here.
I misspoke.  It was A Live One, not Slip Stitch and Pass.  I just remember really loving the song Slave To The Traffic Light.


Oh yea, A Live One is good. It was my second live album after Live Phish Vol. 18 ('94 show).

]i mostly annoy on a professiona level as a bass player couse i have tried many times to remember and play it by ear (which i usualy doo as i don't know how to read music) i use to memorate basslines, but some of the basslines in Phish is so good and anoyingly free it is imposible to memorate it all, which makes me go sour, (bad reason to not like album), it just anoys me that i have to doo some effort to learn it (lazy syndorme)

I got roped into Phish via the Lawn Boy album.  The first 2 songs sounded a lot like old Genesis to me.

I used to go to a lot of Detroit Vipers' minor league hockey games at the Palace, where the Detroit Pistons play, and I can remember them showing upcoming shows on the video screen for a Phish concert.  I had never heard of them before, but was intrigued by the blurbs that I was hearing during the advertisement.  Thus, I checked them out, and the rest is Phishtory.

First song I heard by Phish was "Julius" back when I was 13 or 14. I didn't like it.

When I was 17, I heard the studio version of "You Enjoy Myself" and I immediately fell in love. I got A Picture of Nectar first, but then Junta because I loved YEM so much, not realizing there were 4 more epic songs on that one.

Phish never... hit me right other than that jazz live album- the #19- but that's not even rated very high on here. I felt like they would jam too long on some of their stuff. But I do find them more enjoyable than the Dead. The Dead arent really enjoyable enough for the 3 hour shows they put on.

^ Most of Phish's releases are not well rated on PA. Probably because they're "Prog-related"

These dudes I know said that I have swag but that my swag is that I have no swag.
 
It took me 3 years to understand what they meant.

A pretty cool video from the old days from Tom Petty.
 
 
This may have been an inspiration for the Johnny Depp version of Alice In Wonderland.  LOL

Hey Gabe- I have grown a ridiculous liking for Australian humor. While a lot of it is garbage just like America, the best ones are AMAZINGLY good. As good as Mr Show.
 
The guy from We Can Be Heroes, and the guy from Myles Barlow are possibly two of my favorite comedians now! And the chasers war can be annoying but it can also be funny.
 
Do you think Australians are naturally more into offensive humor? I feel like the humor there is darker.
