I agree that they are very different but oh well.

L@LC, without a doubt.

I'm sure this counts as heresy to many, but there are several songs that I think sound better with only D&T.

Certainly not heresy with me, I completely agree.

I'm ALL about L@LC but I have to place it purely in a class by itself. The music D&T create when they're together just can't be compared.

I guess I'm the only fool who picked Live at Chicago. Don't get me wrong, I love Live at Red Rock and Listener Support but Chicago just had some many well-played songs. We were all disappointed that DMB went back and released another live album from 1998 but now I can't stop listening to it. The Last Stop, The Maker, Tim Reynolds on every song, Victor Wooten and his bass solos like on #41 (freakin amazing!), and Maceo Parker and his saxophone.

We won't even discuss Folsom Field....4-minute Recently follow by Diggin a Ditch..what is UP with that? They had such an awesome Recently going and they just ended it! AH!

2001 was a rough year...

This is like Sophie's Choice.

I probably listen to Luther College the most, but I voted for Listener Supported, because it's got the whole band. I still get shivers when I listen to Crash from that CD, and that's also the best version of Warehouse I've ever heard. Also, #36 is another of my favorites and so is Long Black Veil.

Hear this, I almost voted for Folsom soley based on the fact that when Dave says, "There are many among us who feel life is but a joke," in Watchtower, Boyd does that laugh. And he does it on other versions but it sounds the best on this one, and I LOVE THAT.

Best live album with the band though...Listener Supported was when they reached their, mature, but improv-like best...

I love LARR, but I think they sounded more well rounded on LS...

Chicago and Folsom (while having some good ones - i.e. LIOG (chic)...and Bartender (FF)...) just are way too close (if not) selling out for Daves standards...


D&T is what appeals to me the most though...
