I think this is one of the greatest compositions of the 20th century. That sounds like hyperbole but hooooooly shit. The cavernous half-reggae beat turns into darkness turns into tri-fucking-umphant rock and roll. This particular rendition has some inspired improvisation and interplay between piano and guitar. The guitar player does some excellent shredding at the end. I can't believe I got to hear these guys live just 3 weeks ago. What a show... what a fuckin show. Immaculate sound, performances, and while I don't know how it would be possible everyone there was 10x as pumped as me and that's my _church_, man. Music praising the glory and wonder of our existence that makes a person feel more connected with their fellow human and the universe. You can feel good about Hood.
I am glad you enjoyed this version. I find it to be in the top 3. It has all the components that make an incredible Hood. A great intro, beautiful improv and a fantastic peak. I even hear some "Ooh Child" teases in there. Please share it, this version does not get enough love.
Too long ago to remember specific songs/jams but I'm sure I fully agree with you! I saw every show there. Climbed up the fire escape ladder and snuck in a few times. Good (vague) memories.
You can find tons of stickers and shirts with your granddads name. Its a lot of peoples favorite song. Listen to different versions, each one is different
@j eliot Idk, maybe the similar music and jam styles, along with phish being influenced by the grateful dead and jerry’s work. People talk about Jerry a lot man he was a great musician. Also why the hell are you on this video if phish sucks and “forget jerry”?😂😂
@j eliot because the Grateful Dead came up with the idea of improvising live shows to connect with fans instead of playing carefully rehearsed sets to sell albums, then Phish took that idea and put their own spin on it. It'd be like a manufacturing plant thanking Henry Ford for the assembly line.
This was a FREEBIE !!!! earth day at CC in an area between a series of buildings and coincidentally during an off week during the GD's fabled spring tour there was actually a pretty decent sized crowd ! And it was as tighr as I personally had ever heard them
Agreed bye 93 is hood perfection. That whole show is a fucking rager all the way through. May be my pick for best show ever, sugarbush 94 also in contention.
Thank you for your comment. That is exactly why I uploaded it. If not the best, then easily in the top 5 and the number of people who are unfamiliar with it is astonishing. Spread the word.
@@dphunk87 you got me, too, and I consider myself a connoisseur of the song. To me there's nothing better than a good Hood peak. I would have sworn I had heard every soundboard Hood out there, but I was wrong, would have remembered this. Definitely a good one. My all-time favorite, though, is the one from Walnut Creek '97 (7/22/1997, yeah, the show they released as a DVD with the giant storm during Taste), which is also criminally not included on the .net Jam Chart for the song. The build-up and peak is the perfect cadence for me.
Good! But I like the version from A Live One better. Need to check out the 93 NYE show again... I was actually at that show but it's been a few years... HA!
Great Hood for sure, thanks for sharing. Doesn't come close to 4/10/94, 11/12/94, 12/31/93 for me... or even massive ones like 7/1/95. Super awesome Hood though at a free show on a Colorado campus... sick
Came here to say this. 11/30/91 is clearly the craziest of all times, maybe the fastest. Crazy much like the 10/31/94 Divided Sky :) The fact that footage is available also plays a lot in its favor
@@limlamt 11/30/91 Harry Hood is one of those moments where the improv sounds 100% like it was actually scripted and written that way...it's just beyond brilliant that they were pulling that jam out of their ass on the fly hehe
@@jackminor2320 For sure it's up there. Foam is a sore spot for me...it's my white whale. 28 years of shows and never seen it. The chances according to the stats website are something silly like 0.0001% to never have seen one based on all the shows/festivals I've been to haha
This is a great early version, but the 10-23-94 (A Live One) is still the best imo. I know most Heads will never admit simply because it's on A Live One, but that version is a miracle in music. In fact pretty much every show from 93-94 is at a level that is pretty much untouchable in the jamband scene. Goose is about the only thing approaching those heights.
Oh so nice to hear Harry without the stupid Hood response from the audience. I got to see a few years before that awful trend started. Absolutely spectacular version! Thank you for posting!
@@johnholland9371 I’m not a pouter and I don’t stand there. I’m a helpless dancer. The Hood response is distracting, silly and juvenile in a way that doesn’t match the silliness of the band. This is just my opinion. You of course are free to enjoy shows anyway you like. But to suggest that because you scream a syllable you are having a superior time is preposterous.
This is clearly a picture of 90s Van Halen judging from the guitar....with Trey and Mike and Fish's heads dropped in....BRAVO
Haha I literally thought they just caught major air on those mini trampolines they use
😂😂😂
Can’t exactly tell it’s not them by the clothes either!
Pretty sure this is from when they covered quadrophenia and were impersonating the who
It’s pretty good work! I believed it was Trey for a minute. Not Mike though. And there are no trampolines. Bravo indeed.

You can feel good about Hood.
I hate replying to myself, but check out the 8/13/2018 Hood. I tend to dig darker jams the most but damn. It's a celebration of awesome.
I am glad you enjoyed this version. I find it to be in the top 3. It has all the components that make an incredible Hood. A great intro, beautiful improv and a fantastic peak. I even hear some "Ooh Child" teases in there. Please share it, this version does not get enough love.
Michael Durrant Check out the 7-1-95 Hood. The whole second set are straight fire versions of those songs.
@@michaeldurrant8446 12/31/93
@@abitnyc hood is probably my favorite phish song, there are some pretty fucking wild hoods out there, but 12/31/93 is just so.. perfect
Page’s piano play with Trey’s guitar from 9:15 - 9:45 and how they intertwine against Fish and mike is pure beauty.
Those versions of Ooh Child Trey played with his trio in 1999 were perfect. Love the quotes here.
Sounds like all 12 people there enjoyed it. Great stuff.
🤣🤣🤣
And those 12 people had no idea the value of what they were experiencing
😂
@@ramsessevenone416 Wasn't at this show (wasn't traveling out of New England yet), but trust me, we ALL knew what we had.
I was at this show! Potsdam, NY, Earth Day, in a college basketball court :) There was a lot of Gamehenge tunes that night too!
I was 4 years old, just a little nephew at that time
Best one I ever saw was 11/3/94 hands down, but there are so many great versions of this tune
Im drunk this is perfect
This is great stuff! Best Harry Hood I ever had the honor of witnessing was at the Somerville theatre in ‘91
Too long ago to remember specific songs/jams but I'm sure I fully agree with you! I saw every show there. Climbed up the fire escape ladder and snuck in a few times. Good (vague) memories.
So here i am just searching my grandpas name Harry hood and I find this ...wow.
You can find tons of stickers and shirts with your granddads name. Its a lot of peoples favorite song. Listen to different versions, each one is different
Does grandpa Harry like dairy by chance?
Where does your grandpa go when the lights go out?
Well at least you can now can feel good
You can feel good about your grampa now. Welcome to the Phish.
Before Jerry died, Phish was "underground" and amazing. #ThankYouTrey
@j eliot Idk, maybe the similar music and jam styles, along with phish being influenced by the grateful dead and jerry’s work. People talk about Jerry a lot man he was a great musician. Also why the hell are you on this video if phish sucks and “forget jerry”?😂😂
@j eliot It is similar in the sense that GD is similar to jazz

The raw talent and energy of those days is what I fell in love with. Of course quoting a little “ooh child” doesn’t hurt!
“The drums and the bass are the foundation” -Jah Roy
Excellent version. And that’s a really long intro for that early of a version. Love it!
Wish they never dropped the “feel good!” punctuated ending
Yep, really miss the miracle riff, too.....
Saying the best Hood ever is a bit like saying the best sunrise ever.
Facts. This is good. But the best Hood ....no
Gotta go with NYE 93. But this is solid as hell. So many great versions.
NYE 93 got me on the train, thank God for that recording
Best hood is NYE 93 and its not close.
@@brockoesquandolas4457 this guy gets it
10/19/91 Santa Cruz
Agreed bye 93 is hood perfection. That whole show is a fucking rager all the way through. May be my pick for best show ever, sugarbush 94 also in contention.
Man, I love when they'd jam out the intro like this, and this is as good as it gets!!

Me tooooooooo
2:00 in and it's hard to argue. I always thought A Live One was perfection. I didn't know this one existed.

Same. Maybe just Harry Hood in all forms is perfection. Its a great song
Where do you go.......cue beautiful music with the bomb transitions and glow sticks.
Trey teases The Stairsteps O-Oh-Child throughout the jam
It's beautiful really
I love the darkness of the reggae beat.
Played on my 6th Birthday. Also about my Favorite Phish song of all time.
Ooh, child, things are gonna get easier…
this is seriously the best harry hood ever. well put and thanx for sharing
You're welcome. Spread the word.
Good! But I like the version from A Live One better. Need to check out the 93 NYE show again... I was actually at that show but it's been a few years... HA!
Best Harry Hood I’ve Heard.
I'm glad you agree. Spread the word
This was excellent, thank you. Harry Hood is my favorite song to analyze by these boys. My personal favorite version is from 7/13/2019.
You need to listen to more 1.0 stuff.. I'm guessing you were at 7/13/2019?
@@ebitdareadthebook1535 I wasn't there... just have it on disc for the car :) It's a great one.
@@ebitdareadthebook1535 people can have favorites that aren't 1.0.... but I agree many of the best are from then.
I was just trying to help develop the man's palate and enrich his life/soul.
@@ebitdareadthebook1535 i dig it
Tight hood and a great pic....I know this is a personal thing but i enjoy A live one and 123094 hoods as well....thanks for the upload
I'm a went hood guy myself as I believe it captures the nature of the song the best, but there are probably 10 that are all on the top shelf.
The picture is definitely not real, photoshopped onto a more than likely Van Halen picture lol.
@@phishbeatles Well, that's Eddie with Trey's head, etc. and there is a VanHalen Logo in the background so, yeah.
Page with the CP70 always sounds great.
This absolutely rips.
Fort Collins Rams Club 1990 still the best Hood IMO if you are more partial to Trey ripping it!!
yeah this is a siiiick Hood jam
No doubt this the best HOOD!
I'm glad we can all agree on this.
This is a great recording
1. 11/4/90. 2. 7/14/94. (It's hard to put any version of a song pre-Page getting a Grand as the best though)
3/15/91 is also great. Check it out sometime.
What's up with that picture? Is that Van Halen?
yup
this is so fucking good. thank you for posting it.
Spread the word
Straight smoke.
My favorite Hood was 6-22-00 Hood!
You got good taste man
Thank you sir, see my most recent Have a Cigar upload
This is from Colonial Theatre Keene, NH
No, it's from Colorado
Great Hood for sure, thanks for sharing. Doesn't come close to 4/10/94, 11/12/94, 12/31/93 for me... or even massive ones like 7/1/95. Super awesome Hood though at a free show on a Colorado campus... sick
Terrific Hood! But is it better than Sugarbush '94?
obv this one is up there, but I'm sticking with 11/30/91 as my fav hehe

Was also looking for 11/30/91 in the comments. My fave.
Gainesville Bandshell Hood is one of the best. On A Live One. IWT
Dope!
Did anyone else catch the O-o-h Child teases?

That picture
For realz!!
@@doctorpresident5681 Right on! Van Halen rocked!

@@vtphoto1 🤣🤣🤣 right ok Trey already had his Languedoc by this time. Thanks 👊👁
Go ahead and dub
I thought 12/31/93 was the best. Now im rethinking
Common misconception I myself falsly use to hold as well. Spread the good news.
Listen to 7/16/94 and 11/12/94 those are my two favorites
Me too !

He didn't even hit the high note. Definitely NOT the best Hood ever. 12/31/93 still reigns supreme.
Yep. That's the one. Not one, but TWO miracle riffs. Can't beat it.
Best ever??? I would not say that at all
Ok- send me in the right direction! Peace!

Must be the Broadway influence lol. Still pretty good

This is a good Hood, but to my mind it doesn't come close to the majesty that is 12/31/93!
