Not normally a huge fan of this live, but it gets really hot in the last few minutes. So good

30 Days of Dead 2016 - as good as any, great sound quality and vocally tight. Great early psychedelic Dead!

Mammoth 10 minute version, great jam in the middle, worth a listen. Brilliant way to end the perfect second set

Agreed, strangely overlooked for such a highly regarded show. The verses are nothing out of the ordinary, Donna's singing is great though, but as said above there's serious intensity to the last few minutes. Definitely should be higher

As said above, Slipknot is a dream. Great tone, just fantastic
Not Fade Away

Felt Forum, Madison Square Garden

Start to finish brilliant. They seem to never want it to end and when they do Bobby sounds exhausted! Great stuff.

Arrowhead Stadium

So so so good!

Selland Arena

One of my favourite stand alone PITBs, the last 5-6 minutes of jamming are gorgeous, but this has got it all from beginning to end. They really push on from this into the next set as mentioned already. Supreme.
