Trampled by Lambs and Pecked by the Dove consists of 25 raw tracks recorded by Trey Anastasio and Tom Marshall in 1997 during 4 weekend songwriting sessions.
There is an unmistakable immediacy and excitement to these tracks, as the songs were recorded to an eight-track digital tape machine as they were being created. Their efforts over a total of 9 days yielded 10 songs featured on the 2 most recent Phish albums, The Story of the Ghost & Farmhouse, as well as additional songs that have been performed live by Phish, but not recorded in the studio. This CD also contains songs from the sessions which have not yet been heard elsewhere.
