Recommend me some GOOD SOUNDING dead shows

There are too many shows on the archive to go through, and some of them don't sound as good as others.

I'm trying to download at least 3-5 shows from each month, each year off the archive but am only interested in the best sounding (regardless of SBD vs AUD), well-played shows.

Its hard to go by the # of downloads and the comments are not very helpful, most of them are long stories of how whacked they got from the L they found in the lot etc...

Although its convenient to stream archive shows, I don't like the gaps between songs and would rather have a nice, representative collection spanning the years, mostly interested in 1970-1990.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

most of those MSG/Boston Gardens shows from 1990 and 1991 are sweet. Get the SBDs.

Aside from that:

There's a sprinkling of shows that kick ass both in terms of quality and performance.
