In a little over a week, Phish: At The Roxy – an eight-disc box set that spans an epic three-night run from ’93 – finally hits stores, online retailers and LivePhish.com on Nov. 18. We’ve pointed you towards the bluegrass-tinged version of Good Times, Bad Times > Paul & Silas > Pig in a Pen from the release, but we’ve got one more trick up our sleeves. Check out the Exclusive World Premiere of Buried Alive straight from Phish: At The Roxy…

Brand new 8-CD box set, showcasing three complete shows – fully mastered soundboard recordings, with six sets of music, featuring seventy-eight unique songs with three special guests. Recorded Live February 19th, 20th and 21st, 1993, this run at the intimate Roxy Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia set the stage for many classic tripartite celebrations to follow. With the second show’s near-instant legendary status cemented among fans due largely to a non-stop thriller of a second set which included feats of rock and roll greatness, including a sit-in by a spurious Gene Simmons, At The Roxy captures a magical moment for Phish and their audience during a period of peak songwriting and experimentation.
Over three nights, the band showcased the full spectrum of their talents from ballads to blues, from master composition to fearless improvisation all simmered and served to a small crew of jubilant participants in a near perfect environment. At the same time, the quartet was experimenting with their acoustic, bluegrass side that peaked over the next several years and provided a perfect baffle to the intense, psychedelic rock of Rift-era Phish.
The 8-CD box set is the first complete multiple-show release since Hampton Comes Alive and the 1998 Island Tour. This collection simply must be heard.
You’ve still got a week to preorder Phish: At The Roxy from Dry Goods which includes a bonus CD featuring the 3/28/92 Atlanta show. Be sure to enter our giveaway for a chance to pickup the box set and t-shirt bundle.

not to bite the hand that fed me, but is it me or is the sound pretty sub-par on this? I would hope it’s only cause of the transfer to imeem or something? But for a hefty price tag, I’d be expecting crystal clear sound ala the 12/31/95 release. Just wonderin’.
Stealy – Did you listen to the track that’s available for download at the bottom of the page? Sounds great and a major upgrade to the analog SBD that circulated to my ears.
it’s streaming now fans (started at 2 p.m.)
tues, weds, and thurs – you can listen from 2 p.m. on or so…
enjoy! I have. It is superb!
stealy_fan – it’s definitely just uploaded at a shitty bit rate. I’m positive the actual release will sound better.
