Title: Phish brings jam into studio
Product review: This, Phish's first studio CD, is what played a major role in starting the Phish phenomenom. Previously only available as tapes at their live shows, Junta was released later by Electra and it serves as the classic album for Phish fans. This was recorded in a period when the band was striving to bring their live, jam-driven music into the studio. Though they have recently steered away from this approach (Farmhouse), this CD unquestionably achieves what Phish was going for. With 2 of their most epic songs (YEM and Divided), it is simply a must own. Trey's beautifully soft and controlled guitar notes still give me goose bumps on Divided Sky; along with Page's rolling piano in the middle section of YEM. And the jamming in David Bowie is amazing. Other classics include Golgi, Fluffhead, and Esther. My favorite Phish CD hands down!!!!!!! -Pete McMahon
