Live Phish Volume 4
''Live Phish Vol. 4'' was recorded live at the Drum Logos club in Fukuoka, Japan on June 14, 2000. At the time, Phish was one of the biggest live bands in America, consistently selling out amphitheaters and arenas. However, in Japan, the shows were smaller and much more intimate than the usual Phish concert. The overall mood of the music at the Fukuoka show was quiet and mellow. Most of the second set was tied together with extended excursions into quiet, ambient improvisation, especially on the half-hour version of "Twist." The audience remains dead silent through most of the band's performances but erupts at the end of each song. Users of Phish.net, the largest and quasi-official Phish fan website, rank the June 14, 2000 concert as the sixteenth highest rated concert in the band's history. The concert is usually the highest rated Phish show on the website that was performed outside of the United States. The release reached a peak position of #127 on the ''Billboard'' 200 cha ...

Gumbo (song)
"Gumbo" is a song by the American band Phish. It is a funk/ jazz song written around 1990 by Phish guitarist and lead vocalist Trey Anastasio and drummer Jon Fishman. It is the third track from their 1995 live album ''A Live One'' and was released as their ninth promotional single by Elektra Records in 1995. Like "Split Open and Melt," "Gumbo" started out as a strong tune but one that had a destiny that didn’t lie solely in its composition. A mix of acid jazz and loose funk attended with three-part harmonies and silly lyrics, it had all the ingredients for greatness. The first several versions clearly lacked something, which seemed to be fulfilled with the addition of horns – five times on the Giant Country Horn tour in 1991 and twice with the West Coast return of the horns (in 1994). The (12/2/94) version appears on ''A Live One'' (from which it was the second single released) as well as the European compilation, '' Stash''.
