Reckoning is a 1981 live double album by the Grateful Dead.

It consists of acoustic material recorded live in September and October 1980.

The material recorded in 1980 was originally intended for release on one double LP set, but the format of the music subsequently steered the Grateful Dead towards the release of two double albums, Reckoning and Dead Set.

Grateful Dead guitarist Jerry Garcia commented that the band "ended with so much good material that it was a struggle.

"[3] Initial CD releases omitted one track, "Oh Babe, It Ain't No Lie", for space reasons.
