1980s - #1: As the summer of 1987 neared, the Grateful Dead went into the studio at Club Front in San Rafael, CA. Accompanying them was the legendary Bob Dylan. The Dead had long been admirers of Dylan and often covered his tunes in their shows. This was their chance to work side by side with him. Dylan and the Dead rehearsed over 50 songs during a series of sessions in late May and early June in preparation for a series of summer shows. The plan – the Dead would play as set of their own material, then serve as Dylan’s backing band for a set of his music. In the end, Dylan and the Dead would pair up for just 6 shows that summer (go here for the complete list), the first of which took place at Schaeffer Stadium in Foxboro MA on July 4, 1987, 3 dozen years ago today. This soundboard recording captures that historic first show in its entirety

I wasn't there but will give it a try, 33 years late.
Thanks for sharing, and yes, I like the Dylan/GD sound. It's like a hot summer lazy rock in pyjamas.
