The Story Of The Ghost
The Story of the Ghost is the seventh studio album by American rock band Phish, released by Elektra Records on October 27, 1998. The album features an emphasis on the jazz-funk influenced "cow-funk" style, which the group had been experimenting with in concert throughout 1997 and 1998. The album's first single was "Birds of a Feather", which was a Top 20 hit on Billboard magazine's Adult Alternative Songs chart. -Wikipedia

Rolling Stone
With The Story of the Ghost, Phish affirm that songs, and not solos, are the soul of the jam.

All Music
The Story of the Ghost is occasionally sloppy, a bit smug, and often quite boring. In other words, another day in the studio for Phish.

Sputnik Music
While this wasn't the album of the millennium, it was certainly an enjoyable listen. It has its flaws, no doubt, but it has some very strong points. I do recommend it, and hope it makes a phan of you, too.

The Music Box
Instead of a shiny intact jewel, The Story of the Ghost delivers a lot of fractured pieces.

Phish Thoughts
when Phish dropped The Story of the Ghost in Fall of 1998, they released the most artistically coherent album of their career.

I love listening to this disc and continue to spin it. I certainly encourage all those interested in Phish to purchase it by any means necessary (even those of you, who, like me, tend not to go for studio releases, as a rule).
