Phish - Bluegrass Sessions w/ Jeff Mosier
"1994 Fall Tour Journal"
The Rev. Jeff Mosier (Blueground Undergrass) was contracted by Phish in the Fall of 1994, to help them learn Bluegrass. They flew him to Michigan and Gordon picked him up in a limo, and they had their first lesson on 11-14-94, same night as Grand Rapids.
With his Blessing (and our extreme appreciation), the footage he shot of this whole experience, backstage and onstage, was remastered and is now being shared. He emailed me the following beautiful letter (a must read), to include with this torrent:
"After 11 years I pull out this video and looked back in awe at the bravery and spirit of these four guys called "Phish". I taped the sessions so they could watch it back as part of our lessons and so I could learn some of their tunes as well. I met them in 89 during my days with ARU. The video was shot to aide in teaching them how to play bluegrass around one mic and to show them that their feet weren't tapping! Hee. They had a real desire and hunger to learn bluegrass the old fashioned way. I think we infused a lot of laughter and zambi like joy together which helped them create their own humble approach to bluegrass. It was like old times back with ARU. At that time I was working with Alzheimer's patients and doing a lot of theatre as a job, so I was not aware of their growth in popularity. Just a year before this video in 93' I had played with them in Atlanta at the Roxy, so I was not anticipating "arena" size Phish. The release of "Hoist" was great for bluegrass music. Time will only tell what influence Phish's interest in bluegrass did to forward the progression of bluegrass experimentation that continues in the music until now through so many bands that got their "call of permission" from Phish. Like "Old and in the Way" did to forward bluegrass to new fans, "Phish" took it to the next generation by including bluegrass in just a few shows. "Jerry affected" music is what I call the music of the GD. I think we are all "Grateful Dead cover bands" of sorts whether we admit it or not, once we realize that the GD created "a genre" and were not just "a band". Phish kept it going like nobody else had ever done or may ever will. We owe them much for keeping that spirit alive. This footage speaks volumes to the child like joy that must exist inside of ones music and inside of bands. Their curiosity for something new, the continuing education, the playing of new instruments, and their respect for the pioneers of the genre, gave Phish the credibility they needed to "pull off" bluegrass in front of thousands of reverent and loving fans. This is for those fans. The real fans. This is for all people who love and understand the civilizing power of music. This is to inspire thousands to hopefully upgrade their life by simply learning to play a musical instrument. Phish did this tour and bluegrass music without any concern over "bluegrass chops" or any concern over their own ego. They even "Phished" bluegrass with that wonderful vibe they have. They didn't have to do bluegrass, but they did and over the years included a lot of bluegrass artists in their shows. They laughed at themselves and we had some of the greatest laughs and times I have ever had. This time with them rekindled my own desire to play rock again and really helped me re-appreciate bluegrass, even though I had grown up with it all my life. The true spirit of "Hamptonian Zambi Vibe" was there on every level, as Col. Bruce Hampton was such an influence on all of us. May it simply inspire you. Let music into your life like they did. Learn music. Live music. It can save you on every level and it can save this fear ridden planet and give us all hope again. Like nothing else on earth music is drugs."
