Widespread Panic - Their best album?

Saw them last night on (PBS) Austin City Limits-didn't catch what year it was recorded in. Great show, unfortunately, the recording was less than stellar.
Very talented group of musicians...

Chadburr, thank you for the offer, but wouldn't those be pretty poor recordings?

"Space Wrangler" is my favorite all-around album. I've seen them live ~8 times over the last 10-12 years. First time I saw them live was in 1995 in the aftermath Hurricane Roxanne somewhere in New Orleans.

Somewhere in the midst of a drunken blur in came across a hot frothy mug of 'shroom tea. Next thing I know, I was wandering the streets in a torrential downpour looking for music.

There was a loud din off in the distance which I followed to the State Palace Theater(actually, someone could have told me about the show, but I was beyond reality by then). Man, was that just what the doctor ordered. Armeggedon outside and glorious music raging inside. Auditory exctasy.

Of course, that was all in my youth and I can appreciate a good show without the additives. I caught their show last August at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles, Ca. seemed like 3+ hours of music. My girlfriend and i actually left before the end because our legs worn out from dancing.

Caught the Austin City Limits' show again last night that I referenced on 2/4/06. I guess I was in a better frame of mind last night, 'cause I was blown away. These guys are way talanted! Again, a terrible recording for some reason though. I still have not picked up one of their albums, but after last night, my next cd purchase will definetely be W.P. Probably either Everyday or Space Wrangler. I'll see what I can get my hands on locally.

Anybody know which is the better recording of the two?

I picked up Everyday and Till the Medicine Takes. Everyday is a great album, not a bum track on it, and IMO, it is a very good recording. It is warm and inviting with great weight and bass. If you like rock, I highly recommend that you add this disc to your collection. I haven't listened too much to Till the Medicine Takes yet so I'll wait to comment on that one. But if your always looking to add some quality r&r to your collection, pick up Everyday, you won't be sorry.

perfectionist - Everyday is probably their best studio CD out there. You may want to also check out "Dont Tell The Band", its pretty damn good, and also can be found on DVD-A if you're into that. Make sure you check out some of their live stuff. check out digitalpanic.org for some goodies
