The 11/17/97 show is just disgusting, but all the songs are 15+ and funky as shit.
The '94 and '96 Halloween shows are pretty badass.
The "Island Tour" is 4 shows from '98 that are just downright NASTY. They play everything you'll need to hear, for the most part, and all 4 shows are top-notch. I'd say get these about most shows. The NYE '95 and '97 shows are also a must.

either, my uncle is a fan of the dead, and all the jam band stuff. i burned him a live phish release a few years ago. now he wants a different show as well.
Anything soundboard is fair game, official or unofficial. Are the shows you mentioned available? (I know the Halloween shows are.) What about the Island Tour? (Do you have the dates for those?)
Thanks!
some of the best shows I've seen or even heard, probably the 4 shows I listen to the most
Have they been released?
I am pretty sure you can download them via Phish's website, along with many other shows. Those released on cd are more limited, but you can pick up some worthwhile shows.

EV Solo: Boston 8/2/08, Boston 6/16/11
I'd probably start with these, then go from there. Really, anything officially released is good, I'd say - good sound quality and while some are better than others, it's all Phish
Download/buy the Island Tour first then I'll give a couple shows a listen tonight and see what I'd recommend. There are some shows (the 11/17/97 I listed earlier) that a newer fan wouldn't necessarily like and an acquired taste (15+ minute jams).
