"Contact" is Mike Gordon's song, words and music, and it sits on Junta, the first studio album from Phish. The band produced it themselves and cut it at Euphoria Sound Studio in Revere, Massachusetts, with Gordon Hookailo engineering, while studio owner Howard Cook caught some of the sessions on videotape.

Junta took the long way into the world. Phish self-released it on cassette in May 1989 with no label behind them, and it only reached a wider audience when Elektra reissued it on CD in 1992. It was the band's first professionally recorded album, after a couple of demos that did the rounds among fans, and it takes its name from Ben "Junta" Hunter, their first official manager.
