I'll nominate the Phone Booth from 1/19 too. Looks like this is going to be a great tour!
-
Gotta nominate the Tampa Leave The Light On...real tight groove in this one.
-
Holy fuckin' Bee Jam. For sure in my top 3 and that's no small feat given that song's pedigree.
The very end is without a doubt the weirdest music I've heard the band play and I loved every second of it.
-
Man, that Memphis in the Meantime from last night (1/29) is top shelf.
-
@GeorgeBailey Hot damn, no kidding. Love the crowd going nuts at the end.
-
1/31 Ginger Stardust has an amazing mournful jam in it. You don't hear the band jam in this mode/key much. Very worth a listen.
-
Yeah I was there, my 2nd ever show and loved it, but I wasnt able to pick up in the subtleties of that song, but after downloading it's my favorite

So I’m new to Spafford and just attended my first show on 2/6 in Boston then Friday and Saturday at the Bowl. But I’ve been listening for a little while. The Plans they played on 2/7/20 at Brooklyn Bowl was UNBELIEVABLE. Such a jam
-
@GeorgeBailey Weasel from 12/27/19. The jam intro is fantastic and the jam out before the segue into palisades is absolutely incredible. Hands down the best Weasel I've ever heard. Also Dirty Lundry from 1/24/20 that jam intro is FILTHY dont think they'll ever top that one.
My nominations:
WEASEL 12/27/19
DIRTY LAUNDRY 1/24/20 -
Also noticed that the best Lonely IMO isn't on here either.
LONELY 10/28/16
-
Absolutely LOVED that version of America from 2-7. Liked it better than the Jamcruise version.
-
2/8/20 Impressions, inside a Stuck in the Middle With You sandwich is the best version they've played yet. Excellent addition to the repertoire.

Backdoor Funk 2/29Listening to 2/28 now. I'm not a huge Galisteo Way fan, but that is probably the best I've heard. Incredible show overall...love When it Falls, Comfortable, Bee Jam, and GW.
-
@GeorgeBailey I said the same at the show, the guy i was behind was hoping for a Galisteo and I was saying I didn't love the song. But this version especially with the energy of the crowd blew me away.
-
Grand Junction Funkadelic is so good! Highly recommended.
The It's a Bunch is a little noodly for my tastes, but worth a listen as well along with Memphis.
But my rec for this list is the Funkadelic.
