Let's put things in perspective. I have a long list of favorites, and there isn't one show from '86 on it. You have a ton of listening to do. Welcome.

Here are three very different and essential shows. All amazing.

Yeah, that's true for me, too, but I listened to the Box of Rain from Sean Many-Zeros' show, and it's wonderful. It had just been broken out in Hampton a few days earlier, I think (I'm no expert either, LOL); the crowd is ecstatic, and I think it would make anyone happy to hear it now, too ...

Not that there aren't some worthy 86 shows, epsecially pre-coma. Just none that I would consider among my favorites.

None are top ten pix; but there were a good shows during the spring and early summer...
