The Grateful Dead Movie, directed and edited by Jerry Garcia and Leon Gast, is a documentary concert film which captures the band, their associates, and their (extremely) devoted fanbase during a historic 1974 five-night run of concerts at the Winterland Auditorium in San Francisco, CA. Which, at the time, were to be the group’s last shows ever. These recordings capture the Dead at the height of their mid 70's predominance and effectively marked the end of the first act of the group's 30 year career, as a yearlong hiatus immediately followed.
The Grateful Dead Movie Soundtrack now holds legendary status among Dead Heads. Not just for the group's superb playing, but it also documented the last shows where their infamous "Wall of Sound" sound system was captured to tape, as well as the return of drummer Mickey Hart to the band's lineup. It is now regarded as a pivotal moment in the Grateful Dead's long strange trip.
Available for the first time in any format since 2005, and on vinyl for the first time ever, Mondo is proud to offer our first collaboration with the Grateful Dead featuring stunning audio and visual reproduction. This box set features the full 44-song tracklist originally featured on the 2005 CD release, configured for the vinyl format.
Pressed on 10x solid color, audiophile quality discs by Optimal Media, mastered by David Glasser at Airshow Mastering with lacquers cut by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering, and Plangent Processes tape speed correction by Jamie Howarth. This premium set also includes a 42-page hardcover book featuring an extensive liner note essay by Nicholas G. Meriwether, alongside rare and previously unpublished photos courtesy of Retro Photo Archive.
Original illustration, design and art restoration by Madalyn Stefanak and book design by Justin Goers and Chris Minicucci.
