Grateful Dead Requests: DVDs

Forums

Our friends the Rhinos have various and sundry new releases in the development process, but they're always interested in hearing what you'd like to see hit the virtual shelves of the Store. No promises, but you never know...

This topic is for requesting new DVDs. There are also topics for box sets and individual shows.

If you've already requested something in the previous Requests topic, you don't really need to request it again, but hey, if you just can't help yourself...

Rockpalast --- 3/28/81 Grugahalle,Essen,West Germany

To those of you,who might be interested.You can find this at Bestcddvd.com. What a SHOW!!! JERRY,TEARS ,IT ,UP!!! PEACE!

Videos

Why not a collection of all the song videos they relased over the years? And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

dvd=video ?

Oups ! Like I just said on other forum here, I'd just love to have live concerts videos of the Grateful Dead ,to keep me warm this winter ! The best would be the top performances of each of the band, on a video but it must have "little red rooster"included ! Euh,do you take western union for payments ? Buy/pay via a computer worry me .Secured paiments in Europe don't seem tha secured at all ,here!!!

Treasure of the 70's

You're sitting on a goldmine of extraordinary 70's footage of the Dead at their peak. Full shows, professionally shot. Durham, NC 1978, Passaic, NJ 77 & 78, Copenhagen, Denmark 72... The list goes on and on. Not to mention the full shows shot on 16mm with multitrack audio recordings filmed for the Grateful Dead movie which should be released in their entirety; either one show at a time or a box set of the full run on DVD/Blu-ray. I don't know any Deadhead who would not salivate wildly to own these full shows. Especially in the best available quality with a great sound mix. This would make Rhino incredibly popular, bring in tons of money and bring wide smiles to most everyone in the DeadHead community. It's a win-win. Thanks, Hal

potential DVD releases

Sunshine Daydream (obviously) and of course that guy on the pole is not naked; shirtless yes, naked no. Bundled with the CD's of the whole show. So Far Backstage Pass All GD Videos. Is there even a place to get an officially released DVD version of Touch of Grey? I know it's on Dead Ringers-The Making of the Touch of Grey Video And More. If not...typical GD. Their biggest hit and video and you can't even buy it if you want it. What about Little Light and Foolish Heart? Am I missing any other official videos? Just saw Hell In A Bucket on the Deluxe Scrapbook bonus DVD (which was great...thanks!) A little pricey but well worth it. Likewise, I wouldn't want to buy the scrapbook without the DVD (although it's very well written and presented). But anyway... How much usable GD outtakes are there from Festival Express? Playboy After Dark would make a nice bonus on a DVD as filler. I could go on and on about live 70's and 80's pro shot stuff. Again, the 12/27/83 Scarlet>Fire on the Scrapbook bonus disc was Great! More of that would be super.

So Far !

I would definitely buy a So Far DVD ! And more Jerry Garcia Band shows on DVD would be great as well 1989-91.Thank ya

HD Dead?

Well, I posted this in the wrong thread - so apologies for the re-post: Is any of the video vault shot in HD or suitable for conversion to HD/Blu-Ray? I'm watching Ticket to New Year's now as I normally do this time of year, and as with some of the other DVD's it is pretty blurry when not displaying close-up shots (especially on an HD TV). I would probably upgrade to Blu-Ray on the DVD's I have and would be interested in new Blu-Ray releases more so than new DVD releases. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * -enjoyin' the ride -There'll never be another Jerry

There's Only 1 DVD For Sale Now !!!!!!!!!

You go to the store and click on DVD and all that's listed is the last days of the fillmore. No view from the vault, truckin' off to buffalo, GD movie, NOTHING !!!!!!!!!!! What's up there !!?!?! If all the DVD's are getting the once over and re-released I hope they re-release "A Ticket To Noew Years" with "The Promised Land" back in there. Why did they ever cut it out in the first place. And what about all the fun stuff for the pay-per-view audience that night? "Ask The Band" MR. Spock mind melding with santa clause ("Drum Solo Almost Over ") all the interviews.

Black Muddy River

Black Muddy River was only released on "In the Dark"?? I can't find a live recording of it.Such a staple for many years, an encore I always looked forward to. I would love to obtain a live digital recording. My favorite song! I performed it around the campfire at the camp I worked at in Upstate NY the weekend after Jerry died. Many of the campers joined in singing ...Roll Muddy River... mim

12-31-81 New Year

This was really the last of the old time new years shows, the Oakland auditorium, 4 sets, and an out of nowhere Dark Star. I do remember video screens and cameras that night. The playing throughout the night is unbelievable, check the tapes. The Joan Baez stuff is not the best but Jerry is there! Sunshine Daydream I saw Denis McNally talk at an event for his book several years ago and he said that Sunshine Daydream had just been remastered for release and that the sound problems that hurt the original tapes were corrected digitally. What Happened? There should be a box set with the entire Winterland 74 run - EVERYTHING shot for the movie should be on my shelf!

that

is my favorite New Year's of all time also.

Where are they?

There are hardly any DVDs at the store and on Amazon they are way to high$. Will the out of print DVDs be released and when? Does anybody know the answer to this? Also no download series? Where did that go? Thank you in advance. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

Alpine Valley June 1988 run

Would love to see a DVD with the Soundboard tracks with swishy jerry. _____________________________________________ Will you come with me? Once in awhile you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right!

At this point, ANYTHING!

None of us are getting older. It seems to me there's so much stuff to choose from, I don't understand why it takes so long to get the next DVD out. I love playing these DVDs with my kids and dancing around the living room. But there's so little in video that's been released and I know there's a ton out there. At this point I'll take a cup of cold coffee or a blue sun or a three piece band on the corner playing nearer my God to thee......

Blue Ray

I would really like to see a Blue Ray dvd release. The Grateful Dead movie on Blue Ray would be fantastic!!! Just a thought.

squeakin The Wheel

I'd like to see Alvin and the Chipmonks put on a concert of all Grateful Dead tunes!

Yes 1972 Ventura, OR Please!

An official DVD of Aug 27, 1972 would sell like dime beers. WTF? It's the same lack of logic on GD management's part that has kept so many requested, good quality recordings and videos inside the vault instead of in the hands of Dead Head consumers. Bootleg recordings (even Cornell '77 for example) fail in comparison to what a high quality official release would sound (and look) like. Choosy mothers choose to buy good, quality recordings of the Dead even if they already own a good bootleg or an old official VHS of the same show.

Veneta

Veneta Oregon on dvd please! Also Rockpalast !! Thanks for Egypt dvd by the way. Also a Jerry dvd from the 70's.

60-70-s Dead

Outside of Closing Winterland and the Pyramid DVD there is little to choose from in this era of the Dead. I love Brent and Vince but we need some honey from the honey years. And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

My requests

Berkeley Greek Theatre (7/15/88) Berkeley Greek Theatre (7/16/88) Berkeley Greek Theatre (7/17/88) These Greek Theatre shows would be a good dvd or Knickerbocker Arena, Albany NY (3/24/90) Knickerbocker Arena, Albany NY (3/25/90) Knickerbocker Arena, Albany NY (3/26/90) but 3-24-90 is my favorite and would be a great dvd or last Soldier Field, Chicago, IL (Saturday 7/8/95) Soldier Field, Chicago, IL (Sunday 7/9/95) 7/9/95 would be great since its the last show to be on a dvd.

Best of `65, Best of '66, Best of '67

Or, if there's not enough quality material (doubt that) for individual years, a best of '65-'67 series.Live, not studio. Would make my day. Thanks so much.

Ticket To New Years/Summer Solstice PPV Shoreline '89

The complete shows on blue ray and cleaned up and including the complete between set sketches and and crowd footage uncut. They are way overdue. Better yet, how about a NYE blue ray box set containg all of the visually recorded shows featuring the 80's, '90 and 91.

Complete October 1974 Winterland run on dvd/blu-ray

Hello,This starts my daily request to have all the video of the complete run of the October 1974 at Winterland shows released on dvd/blu-ray.

Re-release of Downhill and Ticket?

Hello--As I watch my VHS tapes slowly oxidize, I'm wondering if we'll ever see the re-release of Downhill From Here (perhaps expanded?) or Ticket To New Year's? Used copies are going for too much ($30-50) on Amazon and E-Bay, so it would be lovely to see these re-released.Thanks!

Complete video of the entire October 1974 run at Winterland

94 and 95

How about a dvd boxset of shows from 1994 and 1995

re: 94 and 95

Jerry was in pretty bad shape at that time, for example Cal-Expo '94 was just plain awful. I guess it was too hot for him at that time, somewhere around 100F as I recall, and his playing suffered. It was so sad to see him that way. RIP Jerry, and thank you for all you gave us.

Re: 94 and 95

I agree with you. I would just like to see any full shows after 1991 or before 1970.

I think you said that... Veneta '72 gets a lot of requests, shall we say. It is also in wide circulation.

DVD Requests

I have longed for a Blu-Ray or DVD version of "So Far." In my experience it's the only film made that captures the time distortion and texture of an actual psychedelic experience -- and does so convincingly even for unimpaired minds. Now that's a good trick and it deserves archival preservation for future generations. Besides that, the footage is beautiful, imaginative, and trippy and the music can't be beat. I think this masterpiece deserves a major revival since it could easily be the highest quality project with which the Dead have ever been associated. Azulstar

woodstock

How about woodstock??!! may not have been the best performance, but it would probably be a huge hit on dvd, and not a lot of video from the 60's circulates at all.

Anything!

Just release anything!!!! We will buy whatever you put out there!!!!! More of winterland 74, or how about veneta 72, or any europe 72 you have (you can tie it in with the big box set music release), or make it easy on yourselves, put So Far on dvd, or how about any of the shows from the 90's you have on video in the vault that were up on the big screens? Brent's last show? Any of the new years eve shows that were broadcast on pay-per-view cable tv (which seems to be most of the 80's? Halloween 1980? Summer Solstice 89? The final show? Anything!!! To save on money for yourselves, how about just releasing it on this website as a purchase for download, kind of like iTunes or your digital download series. Then you don't have to cover the cost of dvd booklets and cases. Or at least put some up for us to stream from the site to see!

Hire me, I will work on it for you!

Sunshine Daydream !!!!!!!!

I'm sure I'm not the first one saying this but if we all keep hollering maybe they're get off their butts and put this out. August 27th 1972 It's all on film and georgus audio. Just put it out, the whole show don't bother editing just mail out !!! We're all sitting here waiting for you to tell us how much it'll cost !!!!Check Out My Orignal Music at www.reverbnation.com/salaversano

August 27, 1972, Veneta Oregon "Sunshine Daydream"

Please release "Sunshine Daydream"! I'm sure the folks at Rhino as well as the band members themselves realize that this show is THE one that more people want to see officially released, in theaters and on DVD, than any other. There is tons of pro-shot footage of the whole show from at least 4 different angles, there are soundboard recordings, film crew audio recordings, nothing is missing to make this a reality except for somebody's permission. I would love to see a no-bullshit real explanation as to why this has not happened yet. Everybody has theories and there are little bits of "Bob said this or that" floating all around but I have never seen the issue addressed head-on. And we all know this wasn't just "a show". This was a historic cultural event, fully documented, kept under lock and key. And all the while the filmstock slowly succumbs to the chemical vagaries of time. A damn shame, a real damn shame.

What's taking so long on the DVD's?

Hey Everyone, I really appreciate all of the releases and understand that DVD's are more difficult to bring to market. However, We're not getting any younger and there is so much music already out there on CD. Can't you focus on getting some big runs of shows on Blu Ray? You know, Like the Warlock shows at Hampton in '89, etc. So let's hurry up and get it out here! OK, ready, Break! Thanks, Scot

DVD request

I'll keep this short and simple, I would love a release of the Sunshine Daydream movie along with a CD release of the entire show. You know it is one of the all time best, so please I'm almost 64 years old and I would like to be able to buy this before I become too senile to remember why.

Hellooooo!!!

It's 2012... THAT'S 2012!!! Has anyone out there ever heard the requests for 8/27/72 I'd like to see this while I will still know what I'm watching. And before my discretionary income becomes earmarked for diapers. 1972 - 2012 there has to be some great marketing ops here. Come on guys, or girls

I think it's safe to say

that that particular request has become the latter-day equivalent of "DAAAAARRRKK STAAAAAAR JEEEERRRYYYYYYY!!!"

DVD Box: Centered on summer '89

I second that emotion. Alpine '89 has to be the center. But I think a MeetUp at the Movies type box would be fantastic, similar to the All The Years Combine DVD box.

Out:
2011: GD Movie (no need)
2013: Sunshine Daydream (no need)
2018: Crimson, White, & Indigo (7/7/89, Philly)
2019: Giants Stadium Box (7/17/91)

In:
2012: 7/18/89 Alpine
2014: 4/12/72 Beat Club, Bremen, West Germany
2015: 7/19/89 Alpine
2016: 7/2/89 Sullivan Stadium
2017: 7/12/89 RFK, DC
2022: 4/17/72: Tivoli, Copenhagen (Danish TV)
2023: 6/22/91, Soldier Field, Chicago
Plus: 7/17/89 Alpine (Downhill Omits the last 2 of the first set, and this is the centerpiece of the release)

That's 8 shows. 6 complete. Add some of the others back in if you want more.

Hey, hows about we quit laming around and start releasing Summer 89' video box sets. Start with complete Alpine and go from there. Mixes need not be flat. Gets get some energy. There is such a thing as over mastering.

Woodstock footage

I would love to see a DVD release of the Woodstock performance. The version of Dark Star is really quite beautiful - I was listening to it and watching it on You Tube and my cat became fascinated by it and came and sat on the keyboard so as to get close to the screen. I played it many times, but now it has been removed for copyright reasons. I would love to have access to the video footage as well as the music, once again!!!

So Far - Outtakes and All Footage Shot

So little has been released from 1985 - can we have the So Far sessions released in total on video, and if you want to include all of the '85 NYE with Ken Kesey and Bill Walton and Guido Sarducci talking about USS Merrimac and Wagner himself, that'd be okay as well!

Château d’Hérouville 1971-06-21

The show was filmed by ORTF (the former French national TV agency), and the original should be in the ORTF archives in the Institut National de l'Audiovisuel. Get a copy, clean it up, sync it with the SBD that was also made that night, and profit (spiritually and financially).
