Lowell although I love my Roxy SBD cass version.

That Atlanta Reba is absolutely nasty. I've always thought this was one of the best. Super funky.

The Roxy Reba is very good. Fiery and intense in ways we haven't heard in years.

The Lowell version breaks the mold a little at around 8:00, and nicely. Thereafter it's by turns creative, jazzy, dissonant and aggressive, all while weaving in and out of a more "proper" Reba jam.

I'll vote Lowell. Though I'm a little astounded that the 7/6/94 version didn't even make the cut. Probably my own all-time favorite. A stupefyingly gorgeous, original version.
Is this still Wombat?

Montreal 94 made my list over the two versions in this match up.

But, I don't think our fans do happily lap it up, I think they go online and talk about how it was a bad show.

Lowell gets my vote. It's been my favorite Reba ever since I left the show that night.
Paug FTMFW!

Montreal, Clifford Ball, and Roxy were all tied for the 4th spot, but Roxy was the only one on my list so it won the tiebreaker.

ETA: turns out your vote didn't matter, Hicks :wink:

They played Reba at the Clifford Ball?

Ok then.

Not trying to hate on the Roxy version by any means, but the Lowell version is the quintessential embodiment of Reba.  Easy vote for me.

You never drink alone when you have something good to listen to.

Ironically, listening to the Lowell version right now (some FTA) when I found this thread  :mrgreen:

Both are top 20 Reba's.

Neither are top 10.

Voted Lowell, but I would have rather been at the Atlanta show. If that makes sense....

Nothing in your post makes sense. I have never read something so inaccurate in my life.

My two favorite Phish songs with "slow to peak" jams are Hood and Reba......and Montreal, among its other great lilts, had top flight versions of each. Its Reba might be a top fiver.
