I've reached deep into the archives of Phishtory, and decided to dust off this overlooked gem, 4/21/1992 (Redwood Acres Fairgrounds, Eureka, CA). Stuck in the shadows' of his three older brothers, the legendary triumvirate of 4/16/1992 (Anaconda Theatre, Isla Vista, CA - of Follow Me To...

This turned out to be a really funny show. Audience bootleg, a little boomy but unclear low end. Sounds like a radom note tease to start with others before a nice Suzy. Weak start on Pen but good overall. Solid Melt! Rift and Guelah are good. Possum has a great tease opening, pretty solid...

Fantastic Suzy opener. Early Uncle Pen, cool cool. Nice ripping SOAM with a heck of a jam. Fish and Page back way off and Trey and Mike walk it around for a while then Fish kicks back in and it rocks out. They're not the band they will be yet but they're on their way. Rift is so good here....

Ah the 1992 California run. It is easily the most consequential trip to this point for the young band and the energy is palpable no matter which show you spin. Everyone has their favorites but this is the one to seek out IMO. It will deliver on the quirkiness and oddball antics that define...

Fantastic Tweezer that starts a little awkward but gets soaringly melodic during the jam before ending in darker territory.

4:50-Trey settles on a riff, a bit of a trill...Mike lays back and Page joins Trey with a bit of dissonance. 5:50-Trey and Page begin modulating the riff. Mike then comes in adding a background rhythm. Fishman plays the same driving beat for the beginning of this jam. 6:30-Page switches to...

Love this show. The recording is waay Mike heavy; and he is on. fire. Awesome.

Some really good meat dispersed throughout both sets off this Spring '92 show. I've heard whisperings of some other tremendous performances from earlier in April of this year, which I'll have to check out, but I think that this does a fairly good job of representing the peaks of the band's...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1992-04-21 • Split Open and Melt (10:37) Set 1 Noteworthy
Very improvisational and exploratory jam with excellent dynamics modulation. Awesome Mike and Trey.
1992-04-21 • Tweezer (13:31) Set 2 Noteworthy
Very melodic, enchanting jam in part. Still among the coolest versions in history.
Simmers at a rather low intensity early on with Trey's playing noticeably restrained. The jam works its way into an improvisational segment with building tension, after which the expected musical fireworks go off. Includes teases of "Happy Birthday to You" and "Linus and Lucy" as well as a birthday announcement from Trey.
1992-04-21 • Possum (12:42) Set 1
Extended intro with many signals and "DEG" teases. Great jam that has a nice swingy feel to it before going full throttle.
1992-04-21 • It's Ice (9:05) Set 1
Good jam and nice work by Page on the Hammond B-3. Segue to "Eliza."
Played at slightly slower tempo, the jam includes great Mike, "HYHU"-like jamming, then a tense, spiraling jam. The 2nd jam has some unusual descending riffs, dissonance, and more spiraling tension.
