For a "down" closer I'll go with Dindi, BD 1980. Fantastic.

Suncoast 85, Midnight in Miami, is great for a vibey-type closer.

For an absolute rouser, I may have to go with the 1986 version ofConquest by BAC. That's the best I ever heard them play it.

I'm a little surprised none of the other olde phartes has mentioned Conquest.

1993 Regiment

Good call. Not nearly enough love for this. Death Hunt was a brutal, bombastic, in your face from start to finish piece that was so bad ### that I'm surprised the Regiment played it. Way too underrated. IMO

For me there is only one in thinking of traditional closers from the dark ages (i.e. "my era" :devil: ) ....

2-7's "Danny Boy" (any year, starting with 1971, I think) :devil:

A few come close...

Kilties "Auld Lang Syne", again, any year

Blue Rock's "Requiem for the Masses", 1971

Blessed Sac's "Free Again", 1969 (and I think 1970 too)

Skyliners "Give My Regards to Broadway/Little Ol' NY"
