Via Reddit: Which song's live version is so good that it ruined the studio version fo

As I'm sure most of you are as well, I'm a big fan of reddit. Today there is a post on the front page asking which song's live version is so good that it ruined the studio version for you?

and naturally I wanted to bring this question to DMB. So what what do you guys think?

    I don't think there are any songs that are so good live that they RUIN the studio version for me, I mean I guess it would apply to Hello Again if you heard the studio version first.

    For me it would be somewhere in the realms of:

    Do you mean Jane from R2T? Because that's actually not studio

    probably none for me. Even with great, expanded live songs, I'll probably appreciate the studio for what it is.

    I'd much rather listen to Dancing Nancies live than studio.

    On the flipside, Rapunzel studio is so good that it ruins live for me (post 2005 versions).

    Almost every song DMB has recorded.

    They're a live band to me. No matter how great the production was on the Big 3, I almost never listen to them, preferring almost any live released version of the songs. There is a much shorter list of songs better in studio than live to me:

    Shake Me Like a Monkey
    #34
    Spoon
    Broken Things

    I almost never listed to studio albums anymore either until they got pressed on vinyl. Now I spin them pretty often. Good list, fully agree on all though #34 with Roi was fantastic live too.

    Exactly. I bet it's been over a decade since I last listened to a studio album (other than when they release a new one).

    Spoon studio is still one I listen to a lot despite 09.03.03 and 09.11.03 being terrific live versions.
    Dreaming Tree there are very few that come close to the studio, they kind of have to have Greg Howard on them for a start (so '98 only).

    Definitely most Stand Up tracks, Everybody Wake Up and Smooth Rider being the exceptions.

    I feel like they haven't even come close to capturing live how good Spoon is in the studio.

    I dare say Spoon is a song that just doesn't work live.

    If they would take the time to practice it/put it into rotation... it could be great.

    I think it's comparable to Mercy in it's subtlety (not song quality!!!). They play that middle jam to Mercy with perfection... given that, there's no reason they can't get there with Spoon.

    Spoon live is still great, but it doesn't come close to the studio version.

    I don't think they played "Spoon" on 9/11/03. I remember when they liberated it down here at Chula Vista and it was a train wreck...but I still enjoyed the fact that they played it after 1587 days on the shelf.

    We all have problems with Stand Up. But this question was made for You Might Die Trying. Compare Wrigley to studio and it's not close. I can't remember the last time I heard it studio.

    However, I like to think the question is more focused towards really well done studio versions (not garbage stuff). But even that is hard.

    Maybe Two Step? Crush?

    Agreed on So Right and YMDT.

    Two step and crush are great studio. Idk how anyone could say the live ruins them.

    Live cuts of Good Good Time really ruin that studio version.

    I'd say the Grey Street from the Gorge in 02. The one from night 1. Grey Street may be overplayed now, but the old live version, especially the one I mentioned, kicks ass. Wouldn't say it necessarily ruins the studio version, but it's definitely better.
