Performer Notes
  • Phish: Trey Anastasio, Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon, Page McConnell.
  • Recorded at Bearsville Studios, Woodstock, New York from March to October 1997.
  • Audio Mixer: John Siket.
  • Recording information: Bearsville Studios, Woodstock, NY (03/??/1997-10/02/1997).
  • Editors: John Billingsley; Chas Eller.
  • Photographer: Sofi Dillof.
  • That's Siket as in John Siket, who engineered the album, thus making this a spiritual, if not musical, cousin of the Yardbirds' similarly titled classic ROGER THE ENGINEER. Whatever it's called, however, this is an album that seems deliberately designed to make all but long-time Phish fans scratch their heads and say, "huh?"
  • It's all instrumental (with the exception of some spoken-word vocal samples), it's all recorded live (without overdubs), it has no jazz overtones whatsoever (save for a bit of cymbal work on "Insects"), and it's all over before you know it. One cut, the aptly titled "Phish Bass" (distinguishing characteristic: a lot of rumbling noises) clocks in at barely a minute long. Most of the tracks here are, essentially, big washes of sound with no particularly individual instruments ever standing out (there are few solos, per se); if the music recalls anything at all, it's the dour modal noodling of the Doors circa "The End."
