The Grateful Dead performs live at Winterland in San Francisco in October 1974.

The Closing Of Winterland documents the Grateful Dead's landmark New Year's Eve 1978 concert that marked the end of the famed San Francisco Bay Area venue Winterland Aena. The Dead celebrated the closing as an approximately five-hour-long party (complete with breakfast with the audience at dawn) and invited some guests including guitarist John Cipollina of Quicksilver Messenger Service and Ken Kesey as well as actor Dan Aykroyd who provided the midnight countdown.

Rejoignez-nous pour célébrer le 50eme anniversaire du concert le plus mythique des Grateful Dead joué au Tivoli Concert Hall à Copenhague au Danemark le 17 avril 1972. Avec un son tiré par Jeffrey Norman des « master tapes » analogiques à 16 pistes, et masterisé par David Glasser, Tivoli 4/17/72 représente une heure et demie des GratefulDead au top de leur carrière. Les moments phares du spectacle sont un aperçu du répertoire de la tournée de 1972, notamment de magnifiques versions de China Cat Sunflower, I Know You Rider, Big Railroad Blues, Truckin’ et bien d’autres classiques, ainsi que la première représentation en direct de He’s Gone et des chansons comme Ramble on Rose, Jack Straw et One More Saturday Night. Pigpen, dont ce fut le dernier concert avec les Grateful Dead, est bien représenté aussi avec trois chansons, inclus Hurts Me Too.

The tale of the Grateful Dead is inspiring, complicated, and downright messy. A tribe of contrarians, they made art out of open-ended chaos and inadvertently achieved success on their own terms. Never-before-seen footage and interviews offer this unprecedented and unvarnished look at the life of the Dead.

Sunshine Daydream is a concert film starring the Grateful Dead. On a blistering summer day in 1972, the Grateful Dead took the stage on the grounds of the Oregon Country Fair in Veneta, Oregon. for what would become one of the most legendary concerts of the band’s storied history. Considered to be the Merry Pranksters last "Acid Test", the concert offers a snapshot of the band at the peak of its playing prowess. The setlist that day included memorable performance of "Sugaree, " "Deal, " "Black-Throated Wind, " "Greatest Story Ever Told, " "Bird Song" and a mind-melting version of "Dark Star" that stretches over 30 minutes. The show, which was recorded and filmed but never released, has since become the most-requested live show in Grateful Dead history. A digitally remastered and reedited official version of the film was released on DVD and Blu-ray on September 17, 2013.

1977 saw The Grateful Dead at the height of their powers. The new songs were solid, the band was playing better than ever and the bootleg recordings from that year prove it.
