Lately I've been really partial to Van Morrison and "It's Too Late to Stop Now.". For those who haven't heard it give it a listen. Van Morrison at his absolute best. Backing band was awesome for this tour.
It's Too Late to Stop Now
Also, Elton John's 11-17-70 is just pure rock n'roll. It was recorded before Tumbleweed Connection even came out. It's just a 3 piece band with Elton jamming the keys with a really raw sound. Awesome version of "Honky Tonk Women" and if you listen to one song listen to the "Burn Down the Mission" medley. It really gives you a sense of his piano playing style that I think was lost in some of his later works.

8/17/97 - best set ever
Best full show? Tough call. 12/6/97 , 4.3.98, 12.31.95, and 12.31.99 all contenders

Was just listening this morning. I feel like it almost has to be the choice due to the insane depth.

Both of my choices come from Woodstock, probably the greatest set of performances ever.
Richie Havens - Freedom (live at Woodstock) : one guy dominated the entire crowd
Santana - Soul Sacrifice (live at Woodstock) : this is the epitome of all that live music can be
Another bonus personal favorite while I'm going through my favorite Woodstock moments: Canned Heat - A Change is Gonna Come

My personal favorite is one of Zappa's annual Halloween concerts at The Palladium in New York City.
October 31, 1978.

17 minute version of Black Napkins to send em off

I said set. Set II (DWD, The Went Gin->Uncle Pen, 2001, Hood) is the best set.

Set I may be the 2nd best set ever after the aforementioned 8.17.97 II. The rest of the show, while above average, doesn't contend with the other heavyweights. I think the jam following Johnny B Goode is overrated.

Wow.
Get 12.6 , 12.7, 11.22, 12.11, 12.29, 12.30, 11.23 immediately. They are all Live Phish releases and spectucular shows.

You always jerk Great Went stuff off
That Gin is criminally overrated. Barely a top 5 version.
I like that Tweezer from that show though. The DwD doesn't stand out in my mind, maybe I need to give a re-listen.
