Dick's Picks, Vol. 32. One of my favorite versions of the '80s.

Absolutely demented bulidup and jam + a killer Phil solo segment

Just a stunning ensemble effort...Jerry's complimentary playing duing the verses is breathtaking!

Shakedown Street

New Haven Coliseum

I agree grendel, this version is definitely better than 6/30/85; it brings the serious funk!
Terrapin Station
March 18, 1977
Winterland Arena

"Alahambra" should really be labeled "At a Siding", since that is what this piece is called on the album version of the Terrapin Suite. But technicalities aside, this is a good one, and not just for the historical significance.
Jack Straw

Carrier Dome, Syracuse U

Awesome extended soloing in this one
Cryptical Envelopment
Feb. 22, 1969
Dream Bowl

One of the all-time best Crypticals IMO. They really take this one up a notch towards the end.
The Other One
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium

Good one! Gets better with each listen.
