This second set (highly recommended.. probably should have been in the
arrogant 'shows to acquire' posts) has the INFAMOUS "wait" Possum,
which is pretty damn humorous. It also has whipping post on fretless
guitar. Fully digital, crispy DSBDs are out there.
Standard tempo to this YEM (the TWANG is at 12 seconds). Nirvana
at
1:42. Like clockwork.. gorgeous opening segment, with no missed
notes. Trey gets a little shaky towards the end of the Nirvana
segment, though. Doh. Mike says "ALLIGATOR" twice during his
solo
section, and there is an echo-effect on his voice when he says it!
;)
I wish Phish goofed off more often in the COMPOSED segments of
their tunes.. Trey's first hit at the Note is perfect, and he jams
magnificently around it! Very nice. This pre-charge
is extremely
tight. Trey's second hit at THE NOTE occurs at 4:31, and is also
perfectly hit and perfectly awesome...
"Boy" at 5:06. WUDMTF segment is standard (maybe a little more
of an
ECHO in it, though). Page starts out low on the Hammond for the
tramps segment.. Mike's giving the signals.. Page might tease
something briefly in here, around 7:45 or so (I think a cosmic krewe
tune... sounds like 'whose to say that you know who you are, when you
know what you know' or whatever that Crewe tune is). Trey comes
in
close to 9 minutes, very sllllowly soloing. He breaks out noodling
after about 15 seconds, and kinda jams similarly to the 3/25/92 jam
segment at one point. Niiiiice, typically groovy YEM jam until
10:33,
when there is an OOM PAH PAH signal... then the funky jam continues.
Great jamming from Trey, sweeet accompaniment from the others.
No
teases.. just a lot of noodling.. kinda short, too.
B&D at 11:32 or so, and Mike opens rather slowly, even though Fish
is
cranking out a good groove (using cymbals effectively, too).
Mike
just plucks low on his 'doc.. nothing exciting. A couple chords
from
Page in here, kinda nice.. picks up a bit around 12 mins.. Not that
grand, although it funks along for awhile.. Mike gets a little more
excited around 12:45 and finds a theme of sorts..
Closing WUDMTF segment at 13 minutes. Trey jams a little in the first
ten seconds, too.. just a little. Vocal jam kicks in around 13:18.
Mike is saying something over the others who vocal jam... I hear
"what.. child.." What the @#&^$#@. Everyone seems to come
in singing
"Shout very long" or something, every other measure or so. Fish
is
Hooooo-ing.. ;) Not that thrilling a vocal jam, though, imo.
Horn
segues out of the tail end of this wicked short, pretty blah vocal
jam
at 15:27. (B-/C+ rating)
