Ok, so, excuse my ignorance, but this year will be my first Phish experience. I know that there's something quite special about them but havent made very good attempts at trying to get into them. I was the same way with the Grateful Dead until I listened to American Beauty. I tuned out anything jammy until I started listening to My Morning Jacket my sophemore year of high school. I don't know why that did what it did for me, but it did. Basically I was denying myself an entire realm of musical listening pleasures. That's ok though because I have pleanty of life left to be living.
So, what I'm really getting at is what are the best/classic Phish albums that I should be checking out before roo? What are the best DVDs to watch?
With bands like this there is already so much preexisting lore that I'm afraid to just go buy a random cd of theirs because I might pick something out that could turn me off if I'm not in the know, or have a background of listening to them. Just like I wouldnt recomend Evil Urges to someone who wants to listen to MMJ for the first time.
Help me out pahlease. I see that it's epic, I just don't know how to approach the beast.
