I have a hardtime judging which is better LT5 or LT8 they are both close.

I know people jizz or LT1 but I don't get it. It's good yes but I don't think it's superb or great (flame away) I prefer Live in Chicago. For the record I don't have LT12 yet.

1 LT5 (as I said superb recording, superb performace, and superb setlist)
2 LT8 (superb recording, superb performance, great setlist)
3 LT11 (great recording-but not superb, great performance, great setlist)
4 LT10 (great recording, great performance, good setlist)
5 LT7 (good recording, great performance, great setlist)
6 LT1 (good recording, great performance, good setlist)
7 LT2 (average recording, great performance, great setlist)Santana puts this over LT3
8 LT3 (great recording, good performance, great setlist)
9 LT6 (average recording, good performance, great setlist)
10 LT9 (average recording, good performance, good setlist)
11 LT4 (good recording, average performance, good setlist)

Something about LT4 is lackluster.

there is nothing lackluster about LT4 whatsoever...agree to disagree

Good point. I forgot how great that version of PFWYG is. I still really wish we got 41 Police though.

And I agree, LT4 is great.

LT5 is one of the most underrated releases by the band
roi is on fire
david ryan harris is sick
people have already mentioned the greatness of exodus, jimi, and pay for what you get but proudest monkey and rhyme & reason are amazing as well

LT3 for some reason that performance does not stick out at all for me. I think LT11 is wayyyyyy better than LT3 while the recordings I basically ranked as equal.

One thing to note in terms of recordings, I was at RR05 Night 3 and I think the recording sounds much better than the performance that I saw. When I was there there was this weird echo effect or something going on that bothered me but didn't seem to bother anyone else.

Everyone sees (hears) things differently I guess.

One other thing to note, I said I prefer LIC over LT1. That is kinda skewed because LIC is tainted due to overdubs which I don't think are present on LT1. I'm not sure how much that gets talked about when referencing those two shows since they are close in date.

Wow. To me it's completely the other way around. LT3 is smooth and perfect performance, LT11 has alot of mistakes...

Just listened to Exodus from this LT...damn, what a great cover. I'll have to go back and listen to this whole show. 1995 was a great year for this band.

Happy 25th Anniversary (yesterday) to this wonderful show.

One of the best LTs period

Top 5 for sure. Band sounds awesome

Watchtower ends so violently, and then Dave just says “Thanks. Bye bye.” Love LT5
