Phish

On April 29, 1990, Phish was in the midst of their early career, shortly after the release of their third studio album, "Lawn Boy," which came out in 1990. This live recording from the Woodbury Ski Area captures the band during a moment of burgeoning creativity and experimentation, demonstrating their distinctive blend of genres, particularly through their unique take on covers such as "Ya Mar" and "Uncle Pen." At this stage, Phish was gaining a dedicated fanbase, known for their improvisational prowess and lengthy jams, which is reflected in songs like "You Enjoy Myself" and "Fluffhead." This performance exemplifies the band's energetic live shows and hints at the iconic status they would achieve in the jam band scene. The fact that they performed at a ski area adds to the charm of this early concert, showcasing their grassroots approach to touring and connecting with fans.
