Title: Phish's Best Studio Effort to Date
Product review: Nothing compares to seeing these guys live, with their endless free-form improvisations, however, this CD is probably their best studio work. It does not attempt to be a live show, but stands on it's own. The compositions in general are more mellow and contemplative than usual, but that's it's strength. While it does not have much in the way of Phish's trademark Zappa-esque musical humor, Billy Breathes has a very musically mature sound that proves that there's no musical "zone" these guys can't go to and thrive in. Check out the slammin' piano work on Theme from the Bottom.IMHO, this is the one to buy if you're a die hard Phan, or a newcomer to the Phish Phenomenon.
