for years my favorite gnr live song was paradise city (especialy from ritz 1988 and rio 1991),but paradise city from rio 2001 was something amazing and for me the best live version of that song.
in rio paradise city was the most powerfull song ever

no, they played it too fast at Rio 3 especially during the chorus. Did they have a train to take? secondly it sounded "metal". THE GUITAR SOUNDED Metal while Paradise City is a pure Rock n' Roll song. However I recognize there was a lot of energy when they played it. My best "new" GN'R version of that song is the CHICAGO 2002 version  :o at the end, buckethead + fink + fortus were doing guitar solos at the same time. amazing version. THE MSG one kicked ass too.
Now about Rio, the best song was THE BLUES. The blues RIO VERSION got the perfect tempo.

I like the Rio 91 or Ritz 88 best.The Ritz 88 is their best concert in my opinion, almost all songs sound perfect.
Ritz 88 Rocks!!Rio 01 , more or less....
