I have a copy of the original SBD cassette masters of this show somewhere - been meaning to dig them out and have a pro-audio pal re-master them. I mastered (pretty crudely) and posted an SHN version to GDLIVE.COM many years ago, which I believe is the sole circulating source of this very...

Yes, the date problem was the result of a mis-labeled tape and nothing more! Charlie Dirksen contacted me to question the date, which led to me doing a bit of research among other guys who were on hand, leading to a verified new date of 2/20/88, which I learned just last year was the birthday of...

This was a hit and miss type of show with multiple tape cuts and possibly multiple sources in the bootleg that I heard. First set audience, second set soundboard. First set starts off with a strange My Sweet One with a long intro suggesting there were sound or monitor problems, or some type...

It took some time to figure out the true date of this show. Here was the thought process from an email I sent out to figure it all out. I'm happy to see the date has been corrected! ------------------------------ The more I think about it, the more I think the 9/27/87 show is mis-labeled...

First of all, I'd like to thank magnetosphere for preserving this show for everyone to hear. With a lack of available fall '87 shows (mainly due to the lack of a deal between the band and Del Martin) as well as a lack of well recorded SBDs, this show is a diamond in the rough of mostly "No known...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1992-05-12 • Possum (11:38) Set 1
Cool, funky breakdown jam in the intro. Then Trey plays around with several "Dixie" teases early in the jam. Fiery ending.
1992-05-12 • It's Ice (10:21) Set 1
Very strange jam with each band member seemingly trying not to blend until its final few measures.
Loose opening, but Trey channels Carlos Santana in the jam!
The second jam has a very unusual dissonant tone, and so it's no surprise that this dissonance leads to some "DEG" teases and jamming. Maybe it's not beautiful music, but it's certainly an improvisational take on the ABB classic.
1988-02-20 • Fluffhead (14:26) Set 2
Only a few months after the emergence of the complete, modern song, even in that brief time, the quality and tightness of the performance here has already improved significantly. Sections like The Chase and Who Do? We Do!, which would give the band performance fits right up to the present day, are accomplished with great precision in this fine early version.
Some excellent interplay between Trey and Page kicks this jam off. It culminates in screaming play from Trey and some classic, early Phish tension-and-release.
