  • A Picture of Nectar is the third studio album by the American rock band Phish. The album was released on February 18, 1992, by Elektra Records and was the band's debut release for a major record label. The album is dedicated to Nector Rorris, the proprietor of Nectar's in Burlington, Vermont, where Phish played their first bar gig followed by a series of monthly three-night stands, saying that the experience "taught us how to play". There are two versions of the album's cover. The first printings of the CD were issued in longbox format, and the title of the album was not printed on the CD insert itself. Later printings came in shrink-wrap format and had the band's name and album title printed directly on the insert. The songs on A Picture of Nectar explore a variety of musical genres, including jazz, country, calypso, rock and roll and neo-psychedelia. Tracks 2, 8, 9, and 14 are instrumentals. The song "Manteca" is a cover of the song by jazz trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie; in Phish's short version, the melody line is sung as a goofy nonsense phrase. "Poor Heart" is written in bluegrass style. The latin jazz instrumental "The Landlady" is part of longer work (only available in live performances) titled "Punch You in the Eye". All songs on the album have been performed live by the band, though the instrumental tracks have become relative rarities after the mid-1990s. The short instrumental, "Faht", written by drummer Jon Fishman, has only been performed live twelve times, the last in 1995. The album was certified gold by the RIAA on November 15, 2001. After its vinyl reissue in 2014, A Picture of Nectar charted on the Billboard 200 for the first time (22 years after its release), peaking at number 110. (en)

  • A Picture of Nectar è il terzo album ufficiale del gruppo statunitense Phish, uscito nel 1992. È il loro lavoro più famoso, in cui tutti i componenti danno sfoggio della loro abilità strumentale. Il disco fonde jam session alla Grateful Dead con alternanza di stili sul modello di Frank Zappa, mantenendo sempre un approccio vivace e fresco. La versatilità del gruppo si dimostra nella loro capacità di spaziare in più generi musicali: funk ("Cavern"), blues rock ("Chalk Dust Torture"), country ("Poor Heart"), assoli chitarristici alla Santana ("The Landlady") e jazz ("Magilla"). Alcune canzoni sono dei simpatici intermezzi e in molte tracce sono presenti giochi di parola e nonsense. "Tweezer" è la canzone più famosa, eseguita molto spesso dal vivo perché ideale per le jam session. Il nome dell'album deriva da quello di Nectar Norris, proprietario del club in cui i Phish suonavano agli inizi della loro carriera. (it)
