        Seriously if you haven't listened to the 2/2/13 Ain't That Wrong you are doing yourself a disservice.

            Super attendance bias here, but that My Road (My Road) from 3/14/18 at belly up, aspen was amazing

            Also, 2/12/17 Palisades... this one goes a different direction than usual at the end that i really like. Kinda bluesy. Im not even sure if the last 5 min are even Palisades but who knows haha prob them just jamming

                  Great rec, awesome version. This is the reason for this thread!

                      if there's a better jam out there than the 3/5/18 VBD, I want to hear it. That jam man, from 33 minutes on, holy shit

                        My slip and squander votes go to:

                        -Guest sit-in, Rick from Goose, gives this version a step above most: https://spaffnerds.com/shows/2018-01-20

                        ETS needs work. I'll listen through some early ones and suggest one.

                        10/30/15 definitely worthy for it being an atypical jam for ETS. Things got weird.

                        Listened to most ETS versions from 2012+2013 (to separate out Alternate Ending in the setlists) and I wasn't WOW'd by any of them. 10/30/15 still reigns supreme.

                            I would like to recommend Soil from 3/14/18.
                            my case ; ) :
                            around the 2 min mark, the keys get super nasty funky
                            3:30 guitar tone starts getting fatter
                            jam breaks for a second around 4:10
                            then we really start heading to the promise land
                            4:34 the guitar riff i love kicks in. very simple repeating, dark tone
                            4:40 keys go full blown 80s dead funk like feel like a stranger
                            then they really start to create within that simple structure they just laid down
                            solid foundation to funk on top off, keys really starts adding flare
                            this lasts till 6:20 mark at which point they switch to cruise control and rage out the rest of the song in typical spafford fashion

                                        I'd advise you to listen to the 2012-03-16 Down Under from Coyote Joes, but your mom will get pissed at me when you face slops on the floor
