This was a mix I put together just yesterday.

Ghost -> My Left Toe 10/9/1999 Albany, NY
ahhh… the first show that Eric and I ever saw together. How many has it been since? A lot of things happened just right this day. For instance, we didn't have a ride, but this guy by the name of Mike Greenhaus who we had just met found us a one. 11 years later, we are all still the best of friends and have seen countless shows together. (and on this ride Eric first heard the Disco Biscuits and his life was forever changed)
This Ghost >My Left Toe is classic for this era. Great jam that dissolves into pure ambience for the brain
Stash 10/10/1999 Albany, NY
just the very next night. Best seats I ever had. This Stash is a journey with some epic explorations….
Light up or Leave Me Alone 8/21/87 Ians farm
Some intense playing for such early Phish. What it must have been like to be there… its pretty prominent, but listen for Trey's dog Marley take some solos of his own.
Slave to the Traffic Light 11/14/97West Valley City, UT
Just listening to this last night. I love Slave. Always so epic and this one is pretty powerful with a never-ending peak
Reba >Walk Away > Simple 10/29/98 Los Angeles, CA
A great trio of songs. Reba gets super ambient. Classic for 1998. The transitions between all 3 tunes are perfect and the songs just go so great together
Tweezer 8/1/98 Alpine Valley
Just an all around great Tweezer. there are so many great Tweezers to choose from. I just love the feel of this one. Makes me real happy. Great playing by everyone. They are really listening to each other. Probably one of the better Tweezers there is in my opinion
Boogie on Reggae Woman 9/18/99
This one actually starts off only OK. They have some trouble finding something to do, so it starts off with a pretty stale groove. But for some reason, Trey had faith in this one and doesn't give up. They immediately find there groove and it becomes just an epic and powerful jam. It soars high in the sky. And if thats not all, after the epicness, they bring it down and trade off grooves with some start-stop funk to keep you dancing and bobbing your head
Cities 8/10/97
Just one for the ages. A great jam. the last few minutes are pure bliss
Mikes Song 12/7/1995
Had to end it with some power. This Mikes Song is what this tune is all about. Some classic December 95, very percussive and straight fury. It will leave you wanting more, but sorry, thats it! Maybe more next Friday! This is also the best recording of this song that I have found.
Kenny you are fucking amazing! Love you man! Keep up the good work!
