Although Junta is Phish's first official "album" (and an excellent one at that), it doesn't really represent the band's true musical roots and development. This mid-80s collection is a worthwhile purchase for anyone who wants to delve deeper into Phish's origins. Most of the White Tape is made up of solo compositions by Trey and Mike, many of which were never performed live. Trey has some lovely acoustic instrumentals (And So To Bed, Aftermath) while Mike contributes some truly bizarre novelty pieces (F*** Your Face, He Ent To The Bog, Minkin.) But what really makes this collection interesting is the stripped-down versions of classic early Phish tunes -- Slave To The Traffic Light, now a hard-rocking, 10-minute stage epic, is given a sprightly, reggae-flavored treatment here, while Run Like an Antelope is performed in a slightly bluegrass fashion. Only three of the songs -- Alumni Blues, AC/DC Bag and Dog Log -- feature the Phish line-up we've come to know and love, so the album may take some getting used to. Also, with the exception of those three songs, everything here was recorded on a four-track machine, so the sound quality isn't the best. Still, it should be a worthwhile purchase for anyone wanting to know what Phish was up to during their fledgling days at Goddard College.
