For me, American Beauty and Workingman's Dead are close for studio stuff (Anthem Of The Sun is good too), but their live stuff is glorious. Europe '72 is awesome, if you dig that, check out Dick's Picks Vol. 4, it's their best live album in my opinion and is absolutely enrapturing.
totally. I have Europe '72 on cd though so that's the one that tends to get wedged in my cars stereo & just never comes out. Frogger also recommended Dicks Picks vol. 8 (I think or was it 16. Pretty sure it was a multiple of 8 at any rate. ๐คฃ ) this past summer which I dug quite a bit back then.
I love all three albums from The Vault series as well! Like Europe '92, I have them on cd so they can get wedged pretty firmly in my listening rotation.
Yeah, I meant of their studio stuff alright, their live stuff is a whole different ball game, there's so much that I haven't come close to hearing yet and I'm not sure how I rank what I've heard.
Frogger's the man for that! He drilled out a list this past summer I think which I grabbed a few recs from.
Pretty sure Dick's Picks Vol 4. is considered the best of the best.

Man, it could be either, both 8 and 16 are fantastic (though I'm slightly more partial to 8 of the two). Also, while 90s Dead can really be hit or miss, Dozin' At The Knick is great too. Now that I think about it, I should make a Live Dead chart... _________________ Progressive Rock
As good as American Beauty for sure...both are their 2 studio classics...
