Another strong choice: March 29, 1990 · Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum · Uniondale, NY, US
Complete Nassau Coliseum show from spring 1990 with jazz saxophonist Branford Marsalis, who was invited by bassist Phil Lesh and sat in on 'Bird Song' in the first set and the entire second set except 'Drums.'
Another strong choice: October 10, 1982 · Frost Amphitheatre, Stanford University · Palo Alto, CA, US
At Frost, the first set ends with China Cat Sunflower > I Know You Rider, and the second set holds together for a long Playin' In The Band > Crazy Fingers > Lost Sailor > Saint Of Circumstance > Touch of Grey sequence.
