Obviously Always Wembley 95 is another classic as well as Bed of Roses with the "i cant help falling in love" intro.
IBTFY has the best improvisations of any Jovi song in my opinion. There are so many great versions with long, long adlibs that are superb. My current signature is actually from Cinicinatti 2000. It is a little different from the MK adlib. Other great versions of IBTFY with adlibs include:

Pittsburgh 2001
Santiago 1990
Giants 2001
and of course MK 1993

I actually made a CD a few years ago with live IBTFY's back to back to back to back because they are all such great performances.

I would also vote for the improvisation in these songs:

Blood on Blood from Moscow ~ the breakdown in the middle, especially Richie's part is just utterly amazing

Blood on Blood Wembley 1990

and of course one of my other all time fave live performances

Ride Cowboy Ride Tokyo New Years Eve.... BABY COME ON... BABY COME ON!

That one is just the best!

The all request hour, the girl in the front row has just asked for Blood on Blood, ok, Merry Christmas young lady!" Amazing <3
