This 1992 effort, Phish's third overall and first for Elektra, represents the peak of their early-period studio records. The full scope of the quartet's artistic vision comes through clearly across a selection of their most enduring songs. They reveal a voracious and sweeping appetite for a large assortment of styles: psychedelic roots rock; heavy, fusion-leaning progressive rock; bluegrass; straight jazz; and even salsa all creep in. The constant and frantic battle between wild imagination, oddball humor, and keen musical chops is mighty compelling, and even their most grandiose, over-the-top, jet-fueled jams are delivered with a disarming wink. --Marc Greilsamer

Those were the days, huh? .......2007-04-18

One of Phish's most critically acclaimed albums may not have been their greatest, but proceeded to incorporate more elements into one wildly fun whole, definitely some sort of early year triumph in regards to that incredible high-wire act between pop and progressive tendencies they struggled with forever. Here, the 16 tracks blaze along into a convincing whole with ease. Whatever any melodic excess their instrumental, scale-bustin' ways starts to grate on traditionalists, a huge display of seamless synergistic prowess in multiple genres offsets the intellectual jamming , which I usually love more then anything else to begin with due to the musically enlightened pedigree this supreme unit doth brought to the rock set. A far cry from their stellar, massively extended live adaptations any fan has come to let overshadow their original studio incarnations, enjoy this sweet album of nectar on it's own merit to find one of the more intelligently hip rock experiences of the early 90's which for the most part holds up quite fine indeed.

Not thiet best studio album.......2006-05-06

A BUNCH OF SILLY INCONSEQUENTIAL STUFF.
ALL THE BEST SONGS ARE DONE MUCH BETTER ON THE LIVE ALBUMS.

This is Phish's second official, major release studio album (it is thier third, if you count Junta, which was originally only sold at concerts on a cassette tape). It is 60 minutes long, and the sound quality is very good but not excellent.

There are 16 tracks on this disc. But, only 5 of them have any meat to them. The rest is just silly filler in between the real songs.

Phish plays these 5 songs in concert all of the time. They are on many of the Phish live albums. Sometimes, Phish stretches out the songs, and other times they don't. But, all of the live versions I have heard are better than these studio versions.

The album starts out really strong with Llama. Other good tracks are Tweezer and Chalk Dust Torture. Cavern is a good song, but this one is especially so much better done live.

The other tracks are a mixutre of styles. There is a Calypso track, a Latin-rock track and some soft jazz. There is nothing wrong with experimenting with different styles. Many groups have done it successfully all on one album, like Derek Trucks on Make A Joyful Noise, or Frank Zappa on Chunga's Revenge. But, Phish's attempts at all of these styles is rather weak and not very interesting. It reminds me of Pat Boone trying to do rock and roll.

I prefer Phish's later studio albums. I think they just got better as their sound matured. But, I also like the earlier work on Junta and Lawn Boy.

I think that this CD suffers somewhat from the "American Beauty" effect. As with every jam band, Phish's first 2 studio albums, Junta and Lawn Boy were more along the lines of their live shows. Eventually, every Jam band wants to make an American Beauty, the Grateful Dead's first traditional studio album that emphasizes the songs and not the music. I think with most bands it is forced, while for the Dead it was a natural progression. String Cheese Incident just went throught this with the horrible One Step Closer.

Listen up.......2006-03-14

I have been a huge Phish fan for years now, and in my time listening to them I have always heard about people loving this ablum. This album includes big hits like tweezer, chalk dust torture, etc- and the fact is that it was an average album for phish. In mine and a lot of other peoples opinions- live phish is the way to go; but if your talking studio.. this album was average. I think the highlight songs were: tweezer, llama, chalkdust, guelah papyrus, and stash. I recommend most phish albums in front of this one.

Smegma Dogmatagram Fishmarket Stew.......2005-12-02

This is Phish at their best. This is the album that made me a fan. And when I saw them live for the first time, they came out and opened with an instrumental, The Landlady, off Picture O' Nectar, and it was great. They came out and just played, no cutesy-ness, no geeky, absurd, pseudo-momentous lyrics. I always wondered why they couldn't do that more often. When they appeared on the David Letterman show or Saturday Night Live, why not just come out and do a tight instrumental? I think I know why. Because they have to be cool and pick songs that show off that they don't care what the larger public thinks, "we're just playing what we like for ourselves, man." But they should show a little more respect for their fans, some of who, like myself, have attempted to turn other people on to the scene only to be embarrassed by their lame recitals when on the national stage.

Anyway, that first paragraph sounds awfully resentful, I'm off to a bitter start but I'm really trying to say that this is a great album. Of all their studio albums, Picture of Nectar has the highest ratio of cool songs to filler. Songs such as Llama, Cavern, Stash, Landlady, Guelah Papyrus, Chalk Dust Torture, and maybe Tweezer all rank as some of the best studio Phish. As a band, they don't quite live up to the hype and expectations of the hard-core fans. But as musicians, when they had time to write and create together, when they were focused on jamming and musicality over the bombastic flamboyance of their live shows, they were often great. One can make a case for Lawn Boy, which comes in a close second for me, but overall I would say this is the one album to own if you want to appreciate Phish for their songwriting and musicianship.

Phish Rules!!!!!.......2005-11-29

Phish is known primarily as a live band, but this CD shows that they know how to make awesome studio albums to. The album opens with an awesome song: llamas. The song opens with some awesome drumming and then Trey comes in on guitar and Page on the keyboards. Cavern is another great tune. The song Guelah Papyrus has awesome jazzy keyboard jams. Chalk Dust Torture showcases awesome hard rock, with Trey Anastasio's guitar and Mike Gordon's bass taking center stage. Overall the album has influences of everything imaginable. Jazz, funk, latin, and rock are the most prevalent, but the song Poor Heart is really a country song. The lyrics on Picture of Nectar are whimsical, the instrumentals are brilliant, the jams are exciting, the compositions superb. What more could you want? I would reccomend this CD to anyone who likes good music!

This album is great. Favorites here are Thank God and Beautiful. Yeah, it's expensive, but you may not be able to find this again after she becomes even bigger. Get it now.

For young and old alike!.......2003-03-19

Father of a teenage daughter, I look for edgy intelligent music from women in rock. This CD is very edgy and intelligent. My daughter is ordering copies for friends. She can't have mine, it stays in the car CD player. Punky, but not punk. It has overtones of acid rock, but isn't easy to categorize. I appreciate the variety in sound from song to song, (versus, say Bikini Kill -- very punk and edgy, but thuddingly mono-tonish) and the searing band work (versus ani di franco -- very intelligent, but hardly scream out the car window band work). Storm gots it all. Only complaint is the motif of angst is pretty constant.

Talent, intelligence AND passion.......2003-03-18

I saw Storm, Inc. in a little ski town in Colorado back about six or seven years ago. Those who failed to attend missed out on the best live show ever seen in the area.
Storm not only has a voice that rivals any singer in the past century, they lyrics on her original CD, Storm & Her Dirty Mouth, show she's intelligent, socially astute and fearless in singing about how things really are in the world. Unafraid to confront social mores and sociological concepts, her lyrics are poetry - fraught with personal emotion and drawn on personal experience. She was unafraid to draw on her own psyche - in all of it's bright and shadowed places.
I have been looking for her second CD since 2000 and am thrilled to have finally found it! Both are an absolute, unequivocable MUST. Storm is a true and original musician.

Storm "rawks".......2003-01-09

If you love rock n roll (or as Storm likes to call it "RAWK") don't EVER miss an opportunity to see Storm. I caught Storm Inc., the band on this LP while visiting SF, purely by the luck of having to find an all ages club for my 17yr old guitar playing son and I. Storm is a 6 ft tall goddess (and a very cool and classy person to boot) with twice the personality, vocal chops, range in styles and energy of any of the Jenny or Johnny come lately's on MTV2 today. The band was incredible live and are really good on this CD. Why she isn't a big star boggles the mind.

Storm's Album Is A Must For Anyone's CD collection!.......2002-11-02

I first heard Storm when she played with Art Alexakis (from Everclear) in San Francisco. I never heard of her before. She rocked the house, knows how to keep her audience's attention. This album has a little something for everyone. Songs are from different genres of music, from blues to rock. Everyone can relate to her music. She's one of the few artists that really "feels" her music. She makes you feel her music as well. I've introduced many people to this CD, I'm proud to introduce people to a rarity like Storm.

A voice teacher early music fan.......2005-12-21

Dietrich Buxtehude (1637-1707) was one of the three major North German composers of his era. He was also one of the most prolific composers of his time, his scope including liturgical music, cantatas and oratorical works for services and concerts, solos arias and cantatas, organ preludes, fugues, toccatas, chorale variations and fantasias , and chamber music including nineteen keyboard suites. Moreover, judging from features common in both, Buxtehude's cantata 'Jesu, meine Freude' may well have served as Bach's model for his five-part motet on the same chorale (BWV227). Though it is arguable that Buxtehude was Bach's greatest precursor, it would be foolish to think of his vast output merely as a preparation for Bach. Buxtehude's music deserves to stand at the summit of his age in its own right.
Although Buxtehude was primarily an organist, he was required as part of his church jobs to not only direct the choir occasonally but also to write some choral selections. Most of these comprised small-scale pieces such as those recorded here. It is quite possible that these pieces may have been performed during services by a chamber ensemble located in the organ loft. The prefered musical genre for private devotion at these small-scale gatherings was the strophic aria for solo voice and continuo. I found them to be very attractive and certainly well sung by the soloists, all of whom are excellent singers and obviously very skilled in the Early Music area. And, of course, the Purcell Quartet is unmatched in their ability to weave in and out of the vocal line in an exemplary fashion! I especially liked the first cantata:"Das neugebor'ne Kindelein" (Newborn today this little child) which features all 4 soloists:Kirby(sop)-Chance(countertenor)-Daniels(tenor) and Harvey(bass). And also the final cantata"Jesu dulcis memoria" (the thought of Jesus, sweet and kind) which features Chance and Harvey. It's all great music and played marvelously!!!!

Kirtan is the communal call-and-response chanting and singing, over and over, of the many names of the Hindu gods and goddesses. The practice is intended to invoke these deities, and by so doing, make the participants become one with them. It is an offering of spirit and feeling, a prayer; a devotional practice set to music. Unlike Krishna Das's excellent Live on Earth (For a Limited Time Only), a live recording of kirtan sessions that's easy to chant along with at home, Jai Uttal's Nectar: Live Kirtan & Pagan Remixes is headier--more of a listening experience. Interspersing street recordings from India and electronica-infused remixes, along with live kirtan recordings, Uttal offers a devotional and intense musical experience. The 25-minute trance-inducing "Om Namah Shivaya" alone is worth the price of the CD for the inner journey it will take you on. Another highlight, Ben Leinbach's "Radha (Remix)," samples vocal elements of the Radha mantra and beautifully places them in a hypnotic and pulsating electronic world-music bed. "Big Wheel (Remix)" masterfully reworks more of the Radha chant in a surprising dub-heavy arrangement. With the exception of the wailing vocal supplication, "Opening the Gates," which will probably appeal to mostly hardcore chant fans, Nectar is accessible and moving. Uttal, who has been leading kirtan sessions for 30 years, likens kirtan to "an oil well digging deeper and deeper into the heart. A power tool of love and longing." While some devote hours, years, or a lifetime to the practice of kirtan, the sweet spot, or nectar, of this CD is that it can give a glimpse of the union with spirit--and what a sweet spot that is. --Kevin Cole

Customer Reviews:

It's growing on me.......2002-05-20

There are some strong kirtans here with a lot of emotion that really involves the listener. I enjoy singing along with some, while others are more complex but flow and are interesting and easy to listen to. I prefer the 'traditional' arrangements and think the remixes distracted from an otherwise excellent CD. However, the more I listen to the CD the more I'm begining to tolerate the remixes. Overall I'm glad that I purchased the CD.

Delight In The Divine Names.......2002-03-21

Inspiring CD of live kirtan and studio kirtan remixes. The feeling of being in a group of people chanting to God is one of the most amazing feelings on earth. I was fortunate to of been present at one of the live kirtans on the CD and I can still feel the magic that was created when I listen to it. Some of the CD is particularly raw compared with the earlier multi-track Pagan releases, but this is very personal side of Jai that he is sharing.
Yet he does go into the studio and play with remixing some of the live tracks. The "Radha Remix" and the "Big Wheel Remix" are groovy.
A beautiful rendition of the song to Shri Hanuman on "Bajarangi".
A taste of Psycedelia on the "Namah Om Remix" that sends me into the sea aboard the Yellow Submarine.
Thanks Jai.

Boring!.......2002-02-20

I echo the reviewers below in saying that if Jai went back to more interesting music and blending east with west, he would be better off. I don't need to buy a cd with an american singing kirtans when i have more beautifully produced cds of authentic kirtans from india (without the american accent). The chanting on this cd is leaning towards a repetitive "hare krishna" type sound and i dont need images of bald hare krishnas dancing around in my mind as i hear this....sorry but his earlier albums are better...it seems as if he put this cd out cause he HAD to and probably took all of maybe a couple of weeks. These are all traditional bhajans so he didn't have to write any lyrics of his own so...then...what's the point?

At long last..........2001-07-11

Jai, we really love you and the Pagans, but also desperately need your incredible, unique, pure Kirtan. Thanks for sharing your heart practice with us in this way. More please!!! Radha Ramana Hari Bol, Om Namah Shivaya and Bhajarangi defy description. Worth owning just for the artwork. Also awaiting your new Pagan album with great anticipation.

A Beautiful, Inspiring Work of Art.......2001-05-28

For anyone who has actually participated in a Kirtan or for those who just love the beauty and joy of music, then "Nectar" will be a deeply moving experience. The call and response of Kirtan is such that even those listening at home will find themselves singing along and joining in- the remixes are quite fine and use the Kirtan chants in a creative fashion. As noted above, the center of the CD is "Om Namah Shivaya" which mere words can not even begin to explain. All in all this is an album not only to listen to, but to grow with.

Album Description

"Three In One" is the debut CD of Wayne Wallace -- an historic figure in the development of the unique San Francisco Bay Area Latin Jazz sound, which is a major force in the current worldwide resurgence of this genre. Affectionately dubbed "The Doctor" by Latin Jazz icon Pete Escovedo, Wayne's career spans over twenty years as master trombonist, composer/arranger, and internationally respected music educator. Master percussionist and Latin music historian John Santos has said that Wayne's "three in one" musical persona "indisputably places him among the most important musicians ever to emerge from the San Francisco Bay Area". "Three In One" is a culmination and summation of Wayne's immense contribution to the intercultural scene known as "Latin Jazz".

Three In One is about the synergy and new sensibilities that happen when musical styles blend -- and Wayne's compositional penchant for combining three styles, rhythms, or structures, in a single song. The musical styles, structures, and rhythms blended here come from Jazz, Funk, and Afro-Caribbean musical sources -- mambo, cubop, songo, reggae, bomba, samba, conga de comparsa, soca. The result is deep Jazz-Latin - a musical synthesis that respects the artistic, folkloric, and spiritual roots and disciplines associated with the musical forms. In the best historic traditions of Latin Jazz, the listener is treated to beautiful melodies, strong rhythmic bass lines, bright and tight ensemble playing, close harmonies, call/response, and sparkling solos -- all supported by a deep Latin rhythm section which explores the rich traditions of Afro-Caribbean drumming. The montunos, monas, and tumbaos are here and, of course, clave is never crossed! You will feel the pulse, and the salsa dancers will definitely not leave the floor!

"Three In One" has seven Latin Jazz Originals, Latinized versions of the jazz classics "Straight No Chaser" by Thelonious Monk and "Moon Rays" by Horace Silver, a beautiful ballad in the spirit of Duke Ellington and Bill Strayhorn, and two original arrangements of traditional Afro-Cuban spirituals.

Tres t-bones de Un Wallace.......2001-01-09

The best I ever hear on the bone. I could really feel the slides and the really groove of Latino Jazz and the feeling of real latin style trombonist. I love to had the opportunity to meet with Dr.Latin-Jazz Wallace. I am a tromboist my self and I really like the style he create for our music. The only regret I have is that I dont live by Dr. Latin Bone himself. I hope you support his art in this CD is the best yet.

Acabo de atender uno de sus conciertos y me impactaron son de las pocas bandas que se oyen aun mejor en vivo, si llegan a su estado e pais se los recomiendo no se los pueden perder.
Spectacular!!! Highly recommended it's an awesome band and this is one of their great cd's.

Music's Nectar.......2005-01-03

Los Enanitos Verdes are one of the greatest Argentineans bands ever, I mean, I just can't help feeling alive when I hear one of Felipe Staiti's solos, he's the one of the greatest guitarrists I ever heard. Well, the CD is different this time, it's not all rock & roll now, there are ballads: Luz de Dia, Futuro Mejor, Rebeca, and Piel. The rest of the songs are rock with some interesting fusions: Cordillera is one of my favorites, specially during the solo where Staiti uses the tapping tecnique to make it sound kick-ass, Hombre Vegetal got a funky feeling and it sounds even better when the brass comes in, Tequila's got a jazz touch and Mal de Amores reminds me how much I want to visit Spain. Ay Dolores, like I've said before in other reviews sounds tight 'cause not everyday we get to hear Agentineans playing mexican music. La Banda de la Esquina is the only song in the cd with pure rock & roll and is also my personal favorite in the album. Anyways, it's a great CD but it lacks the heavy rock taste like in previous productions, Big Bang, Guerra Gaucha, Planetario, etc. but it doesn't change the fact that is a great album. Buy it today, good luck finding.

2-8 rule.......2004-06-11

This cd is great played #2 through #8. It is wonderful, and those 7 songs have the right flow from one song to the next. Enanitos have a great sound. This is their second best album just under the newest one.

Como todo disco de los Enanitos Verdes se los recomiendo si les gusto desde lo mas viejo de este gran grupo hasta lo mas nuevo esto es algo para tener en su colecion....

Enanitos van al estudio con traccion acustica en la mente..........2002-05-09

Tengo 4 cd's de los Enanitos Verdes; Big Bang, Guerra Gaucha,Traccion Acustica y por supuesto Nectar. Guerra Gaucha es el mejor album de los cuatros. Ellos tomaron lo que hicieron en "Big Bang" y lo llevaron hasta el proximo nivel con arreglos bien originales. "Traccion Acustica" es un "unplugged/live" de exitos que preciden "Big Bang." Buena coleccion de canciones pero por supuesto con guitarras acusticas no puedes tocar canciones bien rockeras. En Traccion uno se puede dar cuenta de el talento que los Enanitos poseen como compositadores. POR FIN "NECTAR", es parecido a "Traccion Acustica", no es tan rockero/pesado como los otros discos, es mas pop-rock. Es como tomar canciones basadas en "Traccion Acustica" pero con las libertades de usar un estudio para anadir arreglos. Todas las canciones son geniales (las primeras cuatro son increibles), excepto por dos, track 5 y 9. NECTAR es un disco bien accesible gracias a sus melodias. Si necesitas anadir gasolina a tu coleccion de discos de rock, Nectar te puede llenar el tanque. ENJOY!

Honeyed harmonies.......2003-08-02

This CD displays the lushness of feminine Slavic harmony. It is soothing, hypnotic and sometimes challenging with its occasional whoops and hollers. the liner notes give a nice summary of the songs; would be nice to read the actual lyrics, though.

It's refreshing to know that singers in America can produce these sounds. Keep it up, Kitka!

voices of angels.......2002-06-06

If I could make a wish and have any person or group of persons materialize at my bedside and sing me to sleep, it would be Kitka. Their music is so beautiful that there are no words. It is only to be experienced. So get it for yourself. Let this astounding music wash over you.

It truly takes my breath away..........2002-01-30

...every time I listen to it, and I try not to say cheezy-sounding things like that too often. I don't know how to put my love for these songs into words. It's like... oh, how do I describe this? Pure, beautiful, skin-tingling passion. My words are inadequate, but it's as close as I can get to what I'd like to say.

Wow !.......2001-11-14

I, too, heard Kitka perform on Prairie Home Companion, while driving alone in my car. When they finished, I audibly (and loudly) exclaimed, "Wow!" ... this coming from a mid-40's male rock-n-roller! The minute I walked in my front door, I ordered this CD. Addictive melodies, tight, soaring harmonies ... what a beautiful, moving experience.

Great music for any music lover.......2000-07-13

After hearing Kitka on Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion a while back, I couldn't resist the urge to buy this CD. Kitka's music talents are truly amazing -- they are able to bring life to music that has been distant from our ears for many generations. After hearing Kitka sing their eastern European specialities, I can only wonder why we haven't enjoyed music from that tradition before now, as it is truly phenomenal. Kitka's performance, always flawless, opens this somewhat rare genre to the "Western" ear in an extremely pleasant and enjoyable way.

Great Music - Beware - Copy Protected Disc!!!.......2006-06-19

Kala Ramnath delivers, as always, stellar and flawless playing with deep, emotional maturity. Vijay Ghate's playing is crisp and tight. Excellent sonic production values throughout. The big problem here and reason for the low star rating (which pains me greatly - it would easily garner 5 stars) is the annoying copy protection software embedded on the disc. I bought the disc, can't I manipulate the data to suit my personal needs? I'm not interested in selling it to anyone! I'll spare you the rant on copy protection. Just be forwarned that this disc is in my opinion, greatly compromised by the copy protection.
