Live Phish 04.05.98 is a live album by American rock group Phish,which was recorded live at the Providence Civic Center in Providence,Rhode Island,on April 5,1998,which serves as the final night of the four-night "Island Tour". The short mini-run quickly became one of the most popular Phish performances of all time,with the band mixing the funk of 1997 with the high-energy jams of the mid-1990s along with brand new compositions.

Highlights include a 16-minute "Down with Disease",as well as a funky second set that features a slow,funked out version of "Cavern" that evolves out of a jam developed in "Possum". Additionally,"Shafty" made its concert debut this night. The band expands on "Cavern" well into the 13-minute mark,a song that is usually about four minutes long in concert.
This would be the last Phish concert until their return to Europe in July.
In addition to being a CD release,this concert is available as a download in FLAC and MP3 formats at LivePhish.com.
