Now I'm going to upload a personal favourite show of mine from the US 1984 tour! This show is mostly complete and is in decent quality! Philadelphia 1984!

This is a candidate for best US show and another for show of the year as considering it is near the end of the whole tour, Elton's voice still is in great shape and the band is fantastic as always! Some of the songs from this show are candidates for best version from the tour and some possibly are best version ever! They include Tiny Dancer with great embellishments plus he sounds clean so this version rivals European performances, Levon where for once on the tour Elton is completely faultless although he doesn't go for the studio F5 near the end he is still very clean vocally, Rocket Man with awesome vocals plus a great improv, Restless which is a nice performance, Candle In The Wind with the end oversung like Worcester but it still sounds good, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me which is a candidate for best US version plus you hear amusing comments from audience members insulting each other (something about fat legs!), Who Wears These Shoes which is energetic, Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word which is much better than the version a week later and Bennie And The Jets with obnoxious vocals plus he flubs part of the second verse in an amusing manner also he hits some of the third chorus with the D5's (one of the last times he did this!) and the solo is also fantastic!

The greatness continues with Philadelphia Freedom with the awesome crowd cheering wildly every time he sings the chorus which makes this one of the best versions ever, Kiss The Bride which high energy but Elton isn't as clean vocally as others from this year, One More Arrow which is one of the better US versions with hardly any growling, I'm Still Standing which is sadly incomplete however has a Bb4 which makes it a top version, Your Song which is sadly incomplete but as soon as the recording cuts in Elton flubs the words, Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting which is a fun version, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road with Elton hitting the higher notes more easily than on later versions plus he has the munchies during the second verse and Crocodile Rock with Elton using the 2nd octave! Enjoy this great show!
