Phish

In October 1998, when Phish performed "Farmhouse" at the Farm Aid concert in Tinley Park, Illinois, they were in the midst of their comeback phase after a brief hiatus. The band had released their album "The Story of the Ghost" earlier that year, marking a departure from their previous sound and featuring more reflective and poignant songwriting. "Farmhouse," which would later be featured on their 2000 album of the same name, was a significant track for the band, showcasing their blend of genres and intricate live improvisation. Their performance at Farm Aid not only highlighted their connection to social causes but also represented their commitment to the community, as the event aimed to support struggling family farmers. This live recording exemplified their unique approach to concert setting, with an emphasis on both musical exploration and lyrical depth during a time when they were redefining their artistic direction.
