Want to start listening to Phish

Well i've been hearing alot of good things about this band, and since I have a very open mind, I decided to start to really get into them
Since I know alot of people on here are "phisheads" I was hoping to get some suggestions to start me off. all i know about them is what i heard from my cousin, which is that they are great while high, they mostly do jams, and their guitarist is alot like jerry garcia. i haven't heard even 1 song by them, so my ears are virgin

so what songs/albums should i start listening to? youtube links would be appereciated:cheers2:

YEM!


for a studio album, start with Junta, but obviously their live work is where its at.

 

get all of the live phish releases, live phish is where it's at.

 

now's a good time to get on the phish boat my friend. That way when the braphecy is fulfilled in 09 you can be ready to hop on to some heady tour action. . be sure to malnourish your pooch before head out on tour with them. You probably should stop showering and our cutting your hair and shaving, so you can blend in with all those wooks.


As for tunes, I'd probably just start pulling shows off of etree and finding songs you like by trial and error.

 

yah man it sounds like a reunion is finally happening. jump on while you can and dig out to some of their crunchy grooves.

 

plus get familiar with gamehenge, it's probably on wikipedia.

 

I will be seeing Mr Gordon next Saturday, the 9th.

 

nice man i saw mike gordan and the ramble dove a while back and it was interesting. he is one hell of a bassist.

 

just listen to anything live dont go for studio albums

 

he is playing with Gov't Mule and my fav band, Perpetual Groove. Should be a good time.

 

My favorite phish albums are Farmhouse and Hoist.



Favorite song would have to be Sparkle

 

yeah as far as studio albums lawn boy, rift, and hoist are my favorits.

live, pretty much anything is great. the more live shit i can get my hands on the better.

I love to listen to "Bug" and "Dirt" from Farmhouse, while I'm completely stoned. The solos intensify the high for me and it's wonderful. I also like "Punch You In The Eye", "Reba", "You Enjoy Myself", "Sexual Healing" and of course, "Bathtub Gin".
