Some collectors have expressed incredulity that we have recommended an incomplete concert as our top choice. The fact that the 11/25/90 recording is currently incomplete is a shame, but does not detract from the performance, which scores highly under all our criteria. Indeed, over half of those experts who contributed to this document considered it to be their personal favorite show. We hope that the full recording will surface one day.
We conclude this document with thanks to all those who have helped to surface every recording we list here: without the countless hours of scouring the earth and web for these concerts, we would not be able to listen to them today. Perhaps future surfacings will affect our judgement in this section: of the many concerts yet to be heard by collectors (see here for a list), perhaps 08/06/93 or 12/31/90 will warrant a mention here.
