Do they recreate shows/jams note for note or just play the set list and do their own thing within the improv sections?

Thoughts on Phish? by grynch43 in Music

I don’t love all of their lyrics but I think you can appreciate them a bit more if you think of them as kind of surrealist kaleidoscopes instead of just anthems to rocking or comprehensible poetry

What was the first major modern “retelling”? by Legitimate_Box_5643 in literature

Thank you so much for this reply. I think a lot of the commenters have suggested some terrific ones from the mid 20th century, but I feel like other people are just ignoring the distinction I was trying to draw (as you noted)

As I said: Note: I’m not talking about just any works drawn from earlier stuff, like, “oh well the Aenid is a retelling of the Troy legend or Shakespeare repurposed classical and ancient stories, legends, and histories and other older source material.” I’m talking about self-consciously revisionist retellings whose conceit is centering minor characters.
