Shakedown Street

The album was released for the first time on CD in 1990 by Arista Records^[1] before being re-released in 2000 by BMG International.^[1] It was then remastered, expanded, and released as part of the band's Beyond Description (1973-1989) box set in October 2004. The remastered version was later released separately on CD on March 7, 2006 by Rhino Records. This is the band's second album on the Arista label after releasing three albums on its own Grateful Dead Records.

The album cover art for Shakedown Street was drawn by Gilbert Shelton, creator of The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers and other popular titles from the San Francisco underground comics scene.

"Shakedown Street" is also the name given to the vendors tent set up area at an out door music festival. Vendors tents are most commonly the "E-Z up" style tent sold at wholesale stores. They are usually lined up in a long row at the music festivals, resembling a street.

The record was produced by Lowell George, of Little Feat fame (also formerly of Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention.)
