Phish - Riverport "Bathtub Gin": Greatest Jam Ever?

Музыка

7/29/98 Riverport Amphitheater, Maryland Heights, MO. This is widely considering some of the band's best playing. Clocking in at 24 minutes, this jam is so phenomenal, in fact, that people have suggested that they rehearsed this exact version, obviously differing from the improve playing that they are known for. Although there is another version of this song on youtube, that one is cut short; you can hear the whole piece here, from beginning to end.

    I was there with all our friends that night......very sobering night yet one we all celebrated as our friend Mark who was the biggest Phish fan of all died early the morning of this show when he had a seizure and crashed along 270.... He was a gem, turned so many of folks onto Phish.....all these years later listening I just smile thinking of his energy and how that is such a reflection of their music :)

And then they bust out with THIS - first song, first set. I was BLOWN AWAY by it then and am so happy to have found this and to have learned of its legendary status among phans.

I still keep it in my car to either jam out to or to share with people who wanna know why this band is such a big deal. Didn't realize it was the same version when I clicked, but recognized it immediately. I know this thing note for note backwards and forwards. Surprised it's still considered one of, if not the best, but glad to see it posted here. Truly an epic jam!!

    For the record, I don't really like the song. When they start playing it, I usually head for the Bathroom. I called it "Bathroom Gin". Still do. But I was at this show. It was the show opener, so I wasn't about to head for the beer line or bathroom. So I waited it out. Oh my. Waited it out. Then I'm dancing. Then I'm smiling. Then I'm catching my breath. Then I'm looking around. Im dancing harder. I'm feeling the energy. It keeps building and building and changing, and the next thing you know, I'm dancing like a banshee, saying "holy shit!" to myself and grinning from ear to ear. May not be the best song or even the best version of a song that I don't care for. But during the first 20 minutes on the lawn that evening in Maryland Heights, it truly WAS magic people. And very aesthetically pleasing to the ears, that rivals anything from Fall 97'.

    There is no “best” with Phish. Not as long as they progress...which they always do. I’ve heard remarkable phish 1.0 and went to a lot of shows back then. They have changed their style up a few times since. Saw them a few times in 3.0 and what they do, in my opinion, is take stuff from one era to another. It’s a melting pot of styles. You don’t think phish forgot the eras. Every best phish show is the last one they played. I feel fortunate to have been a 90’s kid that was introduced to phish in middle school. I’ll never talk shit about a band that’s given me so much. Every last show is the best bc it means they’re still together and performing. Peace

    Their ability to play the same grooves on repeat for several minutes yet have each playback sound different than the last is the secret to their jamming success. Those breakdowns from 7:00-8:40 and 15:20-19:30 are awesome.
