Phish - September 21st, 2025

A major version of the modern "Melt." Placement seems to be instrumental, as the jam, exploding from the middle of the first, seems unfettered by "role" or expectation. Note for note notable, play becomes particularly interesting after the ten-minute mark, when Page, following a slow, psychedelic, full-band build, blasts through somewhat familiar bleeps and bloops, unsettlingly smoothing the sound by alternating instruments, play almost breaking to become, of all things, serene (some must-hear Phish). More by way of general madness morphs to bleed into the song's conclusion.

Serenity, now. This sublime version stays true to the tune's namesake as Trey's pure, melodious weaving guides the band's rhythmic center through intimate, dynamic, subtle transformations. Page's synth washes underpin an almost mystical vibe throughout, when around the 17 minute mark Trey plucks out a cosmic riff from the heavens. This motif is then repeated, looped, stacked, and soloed over to create a melodically gorgeous tapestry of catharsis, before quietly fading out > "Lonely Trip".
