Can I ask anyone who has heard them all, is there any one FF reunion gig recording which stands out as best, or are they all equally good (Dublin, Wolverhampton Wembley, etc)

Depends if you want to hear the army singing as well .
If so none of the above came close to Hammy/Glasgow .

It's hard to be objective when you're listening to something you witnessed personally. Although, I'm always put off live albums where there are gaps between tracks.

I haven't played them for ages, but from memory, the first Glasgow show on 9th March 2013 captures the audience participation really well.
Listening to the crowd singing along to Most of the Time from that gig has reduced me to tears.

I was only at 2 of the gigs, and have both recordings. Hammy March 2013 and Dublin April 2014.
The atmosphere comes across better on Hammy 2013, but the overall quality of playing is better on Dublin 2014. I usually listen to JW (that crowd roar is just incredible) and MOTT (very emotional) from Hammy, but I prefer everything else about the Dublin recording. 4500X was much better on the 2014 tour, too.
Sorry: just read the question properly! You wanted to hear from someone that has heard them all. I haven't. Apart from the two I already mentioned, I heard (but no longer own) recordings from Manchester and Glasgow from the 2013 tour. My preference from 2013 is for the Hammy recording, simply because I was there.

Not quite the same question I know, but I've been re playing my DVDs lately, and the 2014 recording is better both from the playing POV and (in my view) the recording quality/camera work. The extra rehearsing does show.
On the other hand you don't get the pinky-blue bits ;-)

Hammersmith for two nights, on both Tours, absolutely immense...'Juniors Wailing' 'Blue Eyed Lady' & 'Most of the Time' were the standouts...with '4500 Times/Gotta Go Home' on the 2014 Tour, but it was everything and more...you HAD to be there on those Tours (No matter what Mr F Rossi Esq thought about it...)

I just can't believe it was 4 and half years ago since Dublin. Where did that go? That's like going from Blue for You to Never Too Late and that was an eternity!!
I will forever look back on the 13 and 14 tours as complete closure on Quo for me. Despite what happened after, they went out in style. Magnificent tours in every way.

Not as young,quick,dynamic,loud,or as tight as in years gone by.
And yet

Only saw them one night at Hammersmith 2014 and it was the first time I was able to see the FF complete...had seen them with Kircher but never with Coghlan...and it was the most amazing experience I have had ! Just happy I got to see them before everything that came after 2014
