@Peeler asked me this, I am sure some of you can help with this question. Thanks!

Question: What bootlegs (if you have to choose one bootleg per tour) for the tours in 1981 (Faith), 1984 (Top), 1987 (KMKMKM) and 2004 (The Cure) you regard as the best in terms of sound/recording quality ? Which 4 bootlegs are the most representative ones for these 4 tours ?

In my opinion:

1981.06.18 Düsseldorf - Philipshalle (Germany) [SBD]
More info

1984.11.16 Washington - Ontario Theater  (USA) [SBD]
More info

From 2004, probably any of the Mexico DF shows. From 1987 I am not sure, I have very few recordings from that year.

Yes, I completely agree to Washington 84, my version is great as well.

Unfortunately, my Duesseldorf 81 version is quite bad. Do you think you can upload it some time? ;-)

I'll look for it :smth023 The Dusseldorf recording is a very special one to me as it was the first live recording I got from the Faith tour. A German friend from Bielefeld sent it to me back in 1998 (It was a TDK Chrome tape I remember) I must look if I have the FLAC version somewhere and I will publish it in the Audio section if I find it!
