This footage came to me through a lot of reels that I bought from a guy about 3 years ago. It has taken me a while to get it converted. I had approached Grateful Dead Productions about trying to get it in future DVD, but that never materialized because they were in the process of closing things down. I had the footage on YouTube, but the Fillmore guys shut it down.

The footage is frustrating at times-- This was not a very stable format, so there are a lot of glitches throughout the footage. It is VERY difficult to get a good transfer from these decks. They are very finicky and often times will not play footage from a different type of deck- ie- a Sony EIAJ machine can have difficulty with a reel that was recorded on Panasonic. Furthermore, not too many people are out there that do the transfer. The person who did this had done transfers for the Dead before on 1/2 inch as well as 2 inch video. He did as good a job as could be done with this footage. Im sure that somebody can synch this with the existing audio out there to provide a better experience.

Please chime in with your thoughts on this show-- I am by NO means an expert on GD, and am guessing from the setlist that this is the 2/14 show at the Fillmore-- Any verification of this would be helpful- as well as any info on the Arthur Lee footage.

I also have about 25 minutes of Paris 1974 footage which is available at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgwJJgF0BvY. I will post it at some point.

Also-- if you enjoy this-- I ask that you make a donation to Guitars Not Guns, a national charity that brings guitar lessons to disadvantaged children. This footage along with the other things I have unearthed was not cheap. If you love progressive metal in the Bay Area, come see my show www.bayarearockfest.com on May 4th and 5th.
