Type II Episode 8: Smothered and Covered

Listen to Episode 8 [audio http://typeiicast.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/episode8.mp3]

Sometimes the best song in a set is a song that Phish didn't even write. This week Eric, Sam and Steve dusted off the archives for another 1.0/2.0/3.0 retrospective look at how other musicians have impacted and shaped the sound of Phish. From their beginnings as a bar band in the late 80's through the most recent tour we investigate not only the songs they choose, but the impact varying genres and styles have on their overall sound.
