Default Best Richie live performance moments

So...I'm making myself sad by watching a bunch of live performances that include Richie, but I'm also inspired by many of them. So, in keeping with the "Jon's best vocals" thread, what are your favorite Richie performances (either guitar playing, vocals, or both?). Feel free to include both band stuff or his solo music.

I'm not a guitar player, but I loved the feel of his solo at the end of "Keep the Faith" from Jon's birthday show this year, especially the wailing he does. He just seems on fire here (beginning at 5:27):

The entire Crossroad Tour with the shows in Tampa and Johannesburg being explicitly outstanding.

I never saw that one! I was thinking he only used his Flying V in Keep The Faith this tour. Great solo.

Richie's solo performance on 29 November 1991 - the entire thing was amazing!!! I wish I had been a little more astute then and appreciated this amazing performance as I would now.

He was on fire in the Live From London DVD. I remember watching it for the first time and thinking every so must be like that. Then I went to my first show and he just went through the motions. I think we've all be waiting for that Richie to come back.

It also appeared in 1989 (Wild in the Streets). Not sure whether it was Largo or Philadelphia.

I'll single out the Chile 1990 performance as his best. Full of energy and soul.

Here's a solo I really liked from Richie's solo tour, in Munich, at the end of "Fallen from Graceland"

But you have to skip past the out-of-tune fan stealing Richie's spotlight because he thinks he can sing the song better than Richie.

Richie's solo starts at 3:35:


Also, the solo at the end of "Taking a Chance on the Wind" from the LA show (starting at 4:14):

Richie don't need to go crazy or do some fancy solos to do good music. Just an acoustic and a beautiful song makes me proud of being his fan:
