Phish

On September 27, 1991, when Phish performed live at The Warehouse in Rochester, NY, they were in the midst of their ascent within the music scene, having already established a dedicated fan base. This recording falls shortly after the release of their second studio album, "Lawn Boy," which was released in 1990, featuring popular tracks like "Bathtub Gin" and "Golgi Apparatus." The live performance of "Possum," a fan-favorite known for its energetic jam sections and humorous lyrics, showcases the band's improvisational prowess and their ability to connect with audiences. Notably, during this period, Phish was beginning to develop their reputation for lengthy, exploratory live jams that would define their concerts, setting the stage for their later widespread success and extensive touring. The recording captures a moment in time as Phish was transitioning from a college circuit band to a prominent name within the jam band scene.
