Description: Phish is a modern rock marvel. At the forefront of the rapidly growing, grassroots-driven improvisational rock scene, Phish has become a true cultural phenomenon largely without the benefit of MTV or radio airplay. Their hundreds of thousands of hardcore fans, or Phishheads, have made Phish the premier concert band of the 1990s. Their Web site, www. phish.com, attracts 150,000 visits a week, and its fan club newsletter has a circulation of 150,000. Phish's three end-of-the-year shows at Madison Square Garden in 1997 sold out in a matter of hours, and the band's two-day concert festivals -- 1996's "Clifford Ball, " held in upstate New York, and 1997's "The Great Went, " held in Northern Maine -- each attracted 70,000 fans, making the two events the largest concerts in North America for those years. In 1997, Phish was the eleventh-highest-grossing concert act in the country.

For Phishheads and new fans alike, The Phish Book arrives just as momentum is snowballing. Produced with the band's full involvemen and no-holds-barred access, the book is an oversize, full-color tribute, including hundreds of never-before-seen personal and concert photos, and extended interviews with the band members. As lively and unconventional as Phish's improvisational style, and as visually dazzling as one of the band's spectacular light shows, the book is just as divine an experience.
