95>97

thats a tough one

Dec 95 is a peak 97 has no answer for, and really both years display very different styles

97 brings the funk and brings it hard, but still has some really interesting type II 20-30 minute jams going on with little to no funk involved. look to the Amsterdam Stash for reference

Summer 95 is SO out there with the dissonance and willingness to push boundaries with the jams that as often as the jams were good and interesting there were also noisey and tedious. Phish never had the balls they had in summer 95 like they had in any other era

really I'd only agree that 95 is better because December is so, so good, but i enjoy the funk in general more so 97 is a very very close second. I mean Page with the clavinet during the summer tour in 97, come on dawg. the funk is so deep.

in summary, yes 95>97, but not by much.

alright MB, back to talking about REO Speedwagon or whatever you idiots go on about in this shithole now
