LP on LP

LP on LP (Live Phish on Long Play) is a series of live albums by Vermont-based jam band Phish. The albums contain highlights from different Phish concerts, released on vinyl records. Due to the length of the typical Phish jam, all the albums so far have featured only one or two songs. Four volumes have been released thus far, with the first two being released on June 18, 2021, the third on August 5, 2022 and the fourth on January 13, 2023.

LP on LP 01
The first release in the series, LP on LP 01, contains a performance of "Ruby Waves" recorded on July 14, 2019, during a concert at Alpine Valley Music Theatre in East Troy, Wisconsin. "Ruby Waves" first appeared on Ghosts of the Forest, a side project by Phish guitarist Trey Anastasio, and the 38-minute-plus version featured here is one of Phish's all-time longest jams. Made up of several distinct movements, the jam became known by fans as the "Alpine 'Ruby Waves'" and is the longest singular performance of the band's "3.0" era. The album was pressed on "ruby waves" colored vinyl. LP on LP 01 reached number 134 on the Billboard 200 and topped the magazine's Vinyl Albums chart.
