New Regular Reviews in Media

Pros: Great music, and soft rock songs from a great musician.
Cons: None I know of.

Pros: A valuable view of improvisational studio Phish
Cons: Not for everyone or even most fans

Cons: ... Miss "Honey" is just too sickly sweet...

Pros: Easy Read.  No factual errors are apparent.
Cons: Post 1966 is almost completely glossed over.  Jarring shifts in tone.
