Probably the cleanest version of this perfectly crafted song that I’ve ever heard. Truly Phish at their best.

If you are feeling down listen to this.................best medicine ever

Trey's 90's tone was an inspiration.

Oh man, old school Phish is so, so good. So sweet. I remember coming back to my place after the bar and listening to this in the car with my good buddy Ben. He started writhing around. I was a little worried, so I asked what was wrong. He said, "The music! The music's got me, Bug!" It's got me too. I've been captured by it. I'm its prisoner, its torture victim, its lover, its darling little baby. I can't get enough of it inside me, yet I keep on trying. I keep pouring it into me, even though I'm overflowing. I'm melted. I'm crying. And the next toon on autoplay is The Divided Sky. I might die. But at least I'll die happy.

You are witnessing an historic event; this particular set is THE set; the pinnacle, the top, the Cornell '76, the moment that every cylinder was firing for this band. I was at this show, next to the tapers and I will never forget the profound and industrial energy at this show.

Totally!! Grasshoppers had a 'field day' with all these people in their turf, my friend Dave came out of the tent and had changed into some pants that had little holes with frayed threads around them and another friend tripping balls started shouting, " Dave, you've got crickets ALL OVER YOU!!" We laughed til our faces cramped. What a weekend, what a show!

I was there. During divided sky it rained. Then it cleared up. Then it was sunset. Later that night they were playing on the back of a flatbed truck. God Bless Plattsburgh

Everything about this song is amazing....but Page..wow...off the charts!

This is peak Page Lizards for me. What a great version, maybe my GOAT

Love Trey's groove moves during Pages' solo! He's feelin' it

metaphoric still to this day, treys whole thesis. Glad I was there and glad its here to remember

Face-melting. The perfect Phish song.

This jam gives me chills every time. Trey leads us on an incredible journey. Soft & smooth to power & deliberate. Beautiful music

i was at this show and remember literally nothing. don't remember how i got there, where i camped, how i got home...but i have a ticketstub in my hand. thanks for this.

Fishman was a machine in this song. This song is incredibly hard on the drums. Especially with the rest on the Hi Hat triplets.

This is magnificent! Thank you for sharing. Much love!

I was at an all time low that Summer, I was a Dead and Phish Head, but Jerry having died the Summer before, I was hurtin', the Clifford ball was a life-raft.

I WAS THERE,WHAT A TIME!!

THIS is the band I love. The band that changed my life. Look at the way trey wields his guitar like a weapon or an extension of his own body. The way they all do, actually. They were so, so tuned in to it all around this time. And imagine the thrill it must have been for them to see the turnout for what really set off a summer tradition for many years to follow. 60k+? not exactly amy's farm. seeing a band so effortlessly locked in to what they are doing like this is truly inspiring. rare.

Passing through the corridor I came upon an aging knight Who leaned against the wall in gnarly armor He was on his way to see the king Wilson Wilson Wilson He led me through the streets of Prussia talking As he tried to crush a bug that scurried underneath his boot heel He said there was a place where we should go So he lead me through the forest to the edge of a lagoon by which We wandered 'til we reached a bubbly spring The knight grew very quiet as we stood there He lifted up his visor and he turned to me and he began to sing He said I come from the land of darkness I said I come from the land of doom He said I come from the land of Gamehendge From the land of the big baboon But I'm never never going back there And I couldn't if I tried 'Cause I come from the land of Lizards And the Lizards they have died And the Lizards they have died And the Lizards they have died And the Lizards they have... He told me that the Lizards were a race of people practically extinct From doing things smart people don't do He said that he was once a Lizard, too His name was Rutherford the Brave and he was on a quest to save The people from the fate that lay before them Their clumsy end was perilously near The Lizards would be saved, he said, if they could be enlightened By the writings of the Helping Friendly Book In all of Prussia only one existed And Wilson had declared that any person who possessed it was a crook He said I come from the land of darkness I said I come from the land of doom He said I come from the land of Gamehendge From the land of the big baboon But I'm never never going back there And I couldn't if I tried 'Cause I come from the land of Lizards And the Lizards they have died And the Lizards they have died And the Lizards they have died And the Lizards they have… The Helping Friendly Book, it seemed, possessed the ancient secrets Of eternal joy and never-ending splendor The trick was to surrender to the flow We walked along beneath the moon He lead us through the bush 'til soon We saw before our eyes a raging river He said that we could swim it if we tried And saying this the knight dove in forgetting that his suit of arms Would surely weigh him down and so he sunk And as his body disappeared before me I bowed my head in silence and remembered all thoughts that he had thunk He said I come from the land of darkness I said I come from the land of doom He said I come from the land of Gamehendge From the land of the big baboon But I'm never never going back there And I couldn't if I tried 'Cause I come from the land of Lizards And the Lizards they have woah whoa whoa
