Live Phish 13 10 31 94 Glens Falls Civic Center Glens Falls New York Reader Reviews
It was back in 1994 that Phish famously donned their first "musical costume" (incidentally, decided by fans who voted via the band's newsletter). Three sets of wild music on four CD's. The boys tackle some of their best tunes with gusto, especially "Sparkle" and "Divided Sky" (from Set 1), and a killer "David Bowie" (from Set 3) But make no mistake, the highlight here is clearly Set 2 (on disc 2 and 3) in which the boys roll through the entire Beatles' White Album (with the exception of "Good Night"). Check out their excellent take on Ringo's "Don't Pass Me By" and their creative rendering of "Revolution 9"; just two examples of how Phish go to great lengths to challenge themselves and expand the range of what a so-called rock band can do, even when playing cover tunes. "Dear Prudence" and "Everybody's Got Something to Hide..." also deserve special mention. Overall, the results are truly impressive, though there are several spots during the White Album set where they sound very tentative (who could blame them, they only had a few weeks to learn almost 30 songs!). In addition, there is some standard early/mid-90's Phish humor ("Harpua") that might turn off the casual fan. But these minor gripes should not tarnish a document of an amazing and unique evening. If you've a fan of the Live Phish series (or The Dead's Dick's Picks and String Cheese's On the Road series for that matter) the question is usually "which show should I buy?" The answer depends on what you're looking for. I wouldn't call these starter CD's for newbie Phish fans exploring the Live series. But for fans looking for one of the most important and historic Phish shows, this is definitely the one to go for.
