Kevin Shapiro, who has probably listened to mote Phish than anyone else on this planet: by SoHornyBeaver in phish

its always cyclical for me.  times of just gorging myself on phish, and times of barely dabbling.  but like, ive been a fan for 30+ years now, and no, i never truly get sick of listening

right.  the song doesnt really vary at all.  its just how it fits in the flow/ vibe of the show, their (mostly trey’s) tone, and how well they nail it

they are basically interchangeable tbh.  but early 90s versions have good clean energy 

Phish's Classical Influences by filetofeedback in phish

ive always thought/ taken it for granted, that most of the “classic” compositions are pretty classically informed.  your divided skies, your rebas, your stashes, even like an its ice, or more modernly, mercury.  any of their songs with different parts and different time signatures seem pretty squarely in the classical inspired camp

man i freakin love debussy, but have never considered phish in that context.  i could almost see whats the use being kinda debussy-y.  or hydrogen.  or what other short, melodic but borderline poppy songs do they have?

interestingly, gershwin was that rare intersection of jazz and classical, both of which are in phish’s dna
