Re: Rank the Live Trax albums from best to worst
This is an old thread, but a fun one to think about.
I have purchased LT1-20, 22, 24-29, 31-32, 34-36, 39-40, 44-45, 50, 55. I have streamed several more in the 20s that I don't own.
Personal favorites include: LT1, LT3, LT13, LT19, LT28.
I'd say my next up are: LT2, LT7, LT14, LT15, LT22, LT29.
Others heavy on rotation are LT5, LT16, LT17, LT35, LT45, LT55 (underappreciated).
I appreciate LT2, LT6, and LT10 much more than the average fun (I personally think 2006-2007 was the band's musical peak). I think some of the best versions of Ants, Warehouse, Pig, plenty of other songs were from that 2004-2007 era. You can say what you want about the setlists, but I would take a 10/10 YMDT, Cornbread, Bayou, etc. over a 4/10 version of a fan favorite. It's also easier to complain about the setlists when you attend 6 shows in a summer and hear YMDT, Cornbread, Bayou, etc. at all 6. But in isolation, they're not so bad.
I never understood all the love for LT8. Personally, I prefer LT2 from that same tour.
I was at LT28, LT29, LT36, LT44, and LT55.
