In December 1997, Phish was on the cusp of a highly influential period in their career, having recently released their studio album "The Story of the Ghost" in 1998. Just prior to this live recording at Crossroads in Kansas City, the band was enjoying a rise in popularity characterized by their intricate compositions and improvisational prowess. Notably, Phish was also in the midst of their 1997 fall tour, which was marked by experimentation and a deepening of their musical exploration, including a penchant for funk and jazz influences.
