The Story of the Ghost (1998) |
Slip Stitch and Pass is a live album by Phish. It was released on October 28, 1997 by Elektra Records and features nine tracks from March 1, 1997, at the Markthalle Club in Hamburg, Germany, during Phish's European Tour.
Three of the album's nine songs are cover songs ("Cities" from the Talking Heads' "Fear of Music", "Jesus Just Left Chicago" from ZZ Top, and the traditional a capella standard "Hello My Baby"). (One could argue that there are actually four cover songs; at the very end of Mike's Song, the band slips into a jam of Pink Floyd's early song Careful with That Axe, Eugene.)
The jam on "Wolfman's Brother" is said to have helped spark the band's deep foray into funk music, which would dominate the group's improvisation over the next several years.
