Wading through the VU bootlegs

What are the best Velvet Underground bootlegs in terms of sound / performance quality?
I'm interested in picking a few more up via blogs like The Nuns Are On The Sea Wall, but want to aim first for those with high sound/performance quality. Can any VU collectors out there point me in the right direction?

Response by poster: princelyfox: Thanks for the suggestion - looks like the 4/67 Gymnasium show has been released (all or in part) several different times. Is there a particular version I should look for?

The Legendary Guitar Amp Tapes are also pretty awesome. I went on a VU boot binge 9 years ago, this thread takes me back.
