Thanks Carson! I'll put together an updated list. Some interesting notes. The other difficult thing is whether jacket numbers actually correspond with press counts (in the case of RR95 and Luther College, specifically). It's hard to say if jacket #3,500 means there was actually #3,500 albums pressed, or still the strict #3,000 but a lot of scrapped jackets/boxes. To your point, we'll probably never know.
Interesting note on Live25...

Surely there are better quality turntable options but back to the point of this thread and the quality issues with DMB vinyl, with a dozen or so other records I’m not experiencing this issue on the LP60, and there are visible defects on the Red Rocks records.

It's likely coincidence, though. The warp doesn't seem to be so severe and the area you mentioned skipping issues (Seek Up) is where many with the LP60 had issues. The problem is that the LP60 is struggling to track through very dynamic passages (comparatively, to your other albums). It just happens that there's also a warp, but it isn't the warp causing the playback issue. It's why despite getting a second copy, you have the same issue. If you took that same disc to play on a table with calibration control, it's likely that it'd play right through the warp without issue.
