Check out the studio version. Like "Fuego," this is one of Phish's finest recorded tracks. For a classy live "Fuego," revisit CMAC 14, which, on the heels of a Letterman appearance, features the song's studio outro. Here, wonderfully, the band moves in a different direction, opening up to dazzle and delight, a "shafty" Trey running point with Page by his side, the duo teasing a pretty medley that, in time, seamlessly shifts to become a signature "Strawberry Letter 23." |

In contrast to Trey's typical whammy-oriented soloing in "Halfway", this version's outro finds Trey opting for thoughtfully melodic and fleet-fingered soloing, which in turn inspires a fully fleshed-out melodic conversation between himself, Page and Mike. Gorgeous. |
Jam chart versions are selected because of improvisational and other characteristics that distinguish these from typical versions of the song.
