Music reviews of Farmhouse
Music Review: Good overall...
Rating: 4 Stars
Farmhouse - The title track, and one of the best on the record. I was wondering when it was going to be released. Originally, Phish played the song on the "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" show in 1996(or so). Great song, true to the original.
Twist - Another song which had been kicking around since the "Pre-Ghost" days. Unfortunately, there was some MAJOR retooling of the song. Listen to any of the concerts around 96/97 for a MUCH BETTER version of Twist. I'm not a fan of the changes.
Bug - Catchy, fun, it grows on you. I'd say it's the sleeper track of the album.
Back on the Train - Hmmm... I'm still not amused by the song. Very stiff, rigid, mechanical playing. I usually skip this one during playback. A horrible live tune.
Heavy Things - I'm not one of the "Bouncin' Bashers" aka "The Phish Gestapo". This is a GREAT track. Very cleaver lyrics with an awesome rhythm.
Gotta Jibboo - The song's much better live and without the digital loop. This song's mediocre on the album.
Dirt - Here's another song which started life in the 96/97 time-frame. Better live, but good here.
Piper - Here's the shortest Piper ever. Oh, and from now on, no Pipers may be any longer. The album version was the death sentence for a great song. It's not bad on the album, but once transcribed, no more did we see the twenty minute Pipers of old. Good song, but I wish they remembered what the album is for. (Framework >< Cage)
Sleep - The song after Driver, I mean, wait... Where's Driver? When Phish toured with this mini-acoustic set-up, they played Driver and Sleep. Sleep is a good song and this captures it well, but why is Driver only on the Jap version?
The Inlaw Josie Wales - Skip - Boring acoustic instrumentals are, well... boring! Give me "All Things Reconsidered" any day. I never once said, "Yes! Dude, they're playing The Inlaw Josie Wales, Holy S-!"
Sand - What? There's more? - That's not a comment about Sand, but after "Inlaw" I think I passed out. Sand has a good beat and takes things in a different direction. This IS Phish! Jazzy, with Rhythm and Blues, Sand should be right after Sleep without the disconnect.
First Tube - Bangin' from start to finish! This is possibly one of the best instrumentals ever! The drums and bass come in pumping with Trey doing a Middle-Eastern/Indian inspired progression on guitar. Page adds to the mysticism (keyboards are the counterpoint, with piano adding accents to the guitar work). The end feels like a victory celebration.
If you bought the import (Jap Version):
Driver - Shouldn't have been left off of the American version. Here's a great song, that's been done some justice.
Mist - aka "Mountains in the Mist" - Again, I'm not sure why it's only on the Jap version, but these two songs, if sequenced correctly, would actually make this album "Pre-Ghost" worthy.
Four stars for not having Driver or Mist on the American release. Good overall and very accessible for the first time listener. If you like this album or want another great album by Phish, then try "Billy Breathes", "Rift", "Undermind", or "Hoist". For the more adventurous listener take on "Lawn Boy", "Junta", "Round Room", "Picture of Nectar", or "The White Tape". The Siket Disc is an acquired taste, not for everyone.
If you want to hear better stuff then either purchase or trade for live material. Songs like "Vultures", "Simple", "Mike's Song", "I am Hydrogen", "Weekapaug Groove", "The Curtain", "Axilla I", and "Big Black Furry Creatures from Mars"(BBFCM) are only found as live tracks.
