Outstanding Versions of Spafford Songs, Best Performances, Recommended Versions of Songs, etc...

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.

https://2nu.gs/38DeblM@GeorgeBailey can you add this to the original post up at the top and credit @strictlygrizness ?

@damian thanks! This will continue to be added to and may have some more choice cuts of my own but also has all the versions listed in this thread that are available on Nugs.net
Is there a way to signify new adds to the master list other than scouring it for recent dates? Will make it easier for me to update the playlist going forward.

@GeorgeBailey I think that 3/4/20 Memphis is excellent. It's so rare for them to get into that ambient space, and I love the People outro jam.
All around that second set stays away from the peak>trough>peak trope. It's just a nonstop goulash of tasty music. Dig it.
-
I know it's been many months since the last reply (sorry y'all lol), but the It's a Bunch and Other One from Pittsburgh 10/8/19 were straight fire. IAB really grooved out, and the Other One ranged from angry, dark, to heavy, and dancably awesome towards the end.
-
@GeorgeBailey Dirtbath from 12/31/20 should be on this list
-
+1 for 12/31/20 Dirtbath, great version.
12/30/20 Soil is definitely outstanding with a savage relentless peak. Two or three times they could have let it drop back into the song and decided instead to keep building up the tension.
