CD Review - By Bob Silvestri

Phish
fanatics rejoice! Not only has the band reformed and is back out on
the road but they have released a chronicle of one of their most beloved
performances, a show at the decommissioned Plattsburgh Air Base in Plattsburgh,
NY on August 16 & 17, 1996. The seven DVD box contains all three
sets and encores from both nights along with bonus footage and clocks
in at over nine hours! A bonus disc features rarities from sound check,
interviews with the band and others and their performance of "Flatbed
Jam" recorded on the back of a truck in the early morning hours.
Many unreleased tracks and versions of songs to whet the appetite of
any Phish fan appear here. Even if you already had the long circulated
bootlegs of the show this professional recording is a must for your
collection. Go to www.phish.com for
more information about the band and The Clifford Ball.
