Live Phish Vol. 8 was recorded live at the E Centre in Camden, New Jersey, a suburb of Philadelphia, on July 10, 1999.

This show is known specifically for a standout version of "Chalk Dust Torture," which guitarist Trey Anastasio referred to as one of the greatest Phish jams of all time. Upon hearing the song, drummer Jon Fishman lobbied for its release as part of the Live Phish Series.

Much like Live Phish Volume 5, fan reaction was mixed upon the show's release, as many felt the concert was released only for the version of "Chalk Dust Torture" and that the rest of the show was standard fare. Aside from the album's most famous jam, the band heads into deep funk territory on the twenty minute "Tweezer" and closes the show with an impressive performance of the Beatles's "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."
