Best Live Trax?
 

I was wondering if there is a consensus amongst hardcore fans as to the top four or five Live Trax. I have a handful of them, but I was looking to pick up a few more. I found some posts on this topic, but they were a bit dated and didn’t factor in many of the recent releases. I appreciate your recommendations!

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

here's my top 4, i'm sure it's similar to a lot of other users, maybe not LT 37

1. LT 3 Hartford, CT 8.23.00
2. LT 8 Elkhorn, WI 8.7.04
3. LT 39 Oakland, CA 10.31.98
4. LT 37 Charlottesville, VA 11.10.92


37 & 39 have a lot of go-to versions for songs

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

My Top 5 (not in a specific order)

1)- LT6 - 1996 Hampton Coliseum
2)- LT3 - 2000 Meadows Music
3)- LT34 - 1999 Deer Creek
4)- LT45 - 2013 Camden NJ
5)- Tie L14 - 2008 Bristow VA / LT37 - 1992 Trax

Bonus - Favorite Dave & Tim LT = LT41 - 1999 Berkeley

I would also recommend looking into the DMBLive Series if you want some older concerts. Some really great 1993-1998 (and a few newer) in there.

Theres something really special about LT 1. The show is one of the best LTs I have. I also love LT 3 and LT 7. I'm biased towards LT 2 and LT 26 because I was there. I was also at LT 32, but have to admit, theres better shows.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

LT3 100%

unpopular opinion: LT22 is also up there

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

LT7

Probably my all time favorite show.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

LT3 Without question.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

It's hard to pick a best out of over 40 of them, but I think Live Trax 8 is the answer. Certainly is my favorite.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

LT 3
LT 26
LT 39
LT 13
LT 18

Five of my favorites.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

Here are some of my favorites from the Live Trax series - strongly influenced by performance and mix, in case it helps...

DMB:
LT 8 (2004) (One of the best things this band has ever released, I reckon)
LT 3 (2000)
LT 1 (1998)
LT 16 (2000)
LT 40 (2002)
LT 13 (2008)

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

From a sound and mix and blend standpoint LT31 to me is the best sounding live trax even satellite is amazing with butch playing keys. I think it is extremely underrated

From an Overall Setlist/show
LT3, 20, and 42 are the holy trinity

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

1000% agree on LT31. Probably my favorite Rapunzel, Too Much and Lover Lay down from that release/bonus disc. The ending of LLD with Carter’s work is awesome. Even DDTW sounds incredible. Carter is just a monster on the release.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

My favorite JTR is from that show. The mix is so good.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

37 & 39 are two of my favorites, too

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

Some good suggestions in here. Latest Live Trax I have is LT19, so glad to hear some more recent ones are quality.

LT8 is my go-to, just genuinely great the whole way through.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

This is pretty much correct.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

LT 3 & 5 are must haves

LT 17 is extremely underrated. Has the best Say Goodbye

I really like 16 too

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

16 had potential but the mix is hot garbage.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

my top 5:
lt 3
lt 7
lt 8
lt 17
lt 18

honorable mention lt 12

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

35, 26, 18, and 30

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

Top 3 in no order:

3
8
50

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

2, 8, and 19 are my favorite 3.

To be fair, I probably haven't listened to any full LTs since 31 except for Camden 2013

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

It’s a tie between LT3 and LT18, which has made its way up in the rankings lately.

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

It's LT3


... Dave's voice is annoying on LT7

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

A nice plot showing likes per LT release during various years

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

i think his voice of that era is captured well. certain rawness in the air

Re: Best Live Trax?
 

It's raw alright
