Well just on the studio album side to start my favorites go Wake of the Flood, Go to Heaven, The Mars Hotel, and Shakedown Street. and to get your live fix to start Europe 72 live album is a good place to begin. So much live stuff you can just go to the Dicks picks volumes of live releases and get some of their best live shows ever recorded remixed to almost perfection. listen well and feel it.

Give me American Beauty and Workingman's Dead. Those two albums are when I fell in love with their music and when I most enjoyed their live shows.

Go download that Sunshine Daydream video. Lotsa nudity and lotsa jams. It's a sweet concert documentary filmed in 1972 in Oregon.
