Nothing exploratory here, and no exceptional length, but this is in my mind the most cohesive, moving, and realized Type I Hood of 3.0.
* 12/30/12's version is *tremendous*. There were some fine versions in 3.0 prior to that one, but ever since that night the trend has been from "strong Type I's" (i.e. 7/13/13, 7/26/13, 10/23/13) to "monster versions" (the big ones from the last two years).
My favorite show, version to date.
My buddy was crazy about Hood, and I just nodded so I could hopefully stop talking about a song I didn't really care about.
This night stopped that attitude immediately. It was stunning.
/> Ill let you be the judge, just please listen with headphones on cranked to volume 10+ to reflect on this magical overlooked version, Page is really on.
After taking it to ultimate levels of perfection and improvisation this is one of the best of the year IMO.
Deep intro bass play from Mike, as Trey walks on some improvisational noodling during the post 'thank you Mr. minor segment". Continuing to disassemble into a Trance jam led by Big Red. ( silent & almost haunting throughout, hearing the simplest cords being played). Parts of this version reflect what is ti come during the next installment of Phish. Pieced together this falls into the higher rankings of the songs uniqueness.
Enough said.
Additional Note:
7 minutes into it, seemed to fluctuate and hover a unique rhythm coming from the band. Fishman really does some old school war like rhythm until coming to a head towards the conclusion of H.H. This version Finishes strong and is a classic.
This is 'interesting' the way so much late-94 Phish is, like an elegant proof artfully written.
And it's beautiful as a baby universe.
The first minute you can already feel the readers on the same page, crushing the Hood Script.
2:16 Harry where do you go?
2:18- Improvisational play, seeming to catch a bit more wind in the sails ( side note > page is 100% solid here)
3:48- trey sound is crisp, and bullseye on through the sections, mirroring Fish's play.
5:05- thanks to Mr. minor. No thank you,Mr. hood
5:50- trey's classic Harry Hood solo which seems to really speak, i often hear people say guitars can talk well, this is the case as Trey sort of touches the clouds of heaven
7.11- trey has reached the sky which separates the orbits bringing some solo of sorts repeating, speaking and encountering which IMO divides these versions from good to excellent.
8.39- apparently trey figures out that he wants to just take the ropes and win the horse race which already seemed like a win.
The band continues to follow with great force and action, it is almost like hearing a finale of fireworks
11.14- just pure guitar shredding, melting faces and stopping time in it's tracks. Pure Harry Hood uniqueness in it's most passionate form.
One of the greatest Hood's performed. Must listen, download, replay
13.00- we are all feeling great about Hood.
Hit them cymbals with the sticks
I'm closing my eyes
