Liner Note Author: Gary Lambert. Recording information: Winterland, San Francisco, CA (12/31/1978-01/01/1979). Photographer: Steve Schneider. Arrangers: Grateful Dead; Bob Weir. This pristine recording of the final concert at Winterland, the crumbling San Francisco venue that had witnessed thousands of often incandescent rock & roll shows between 1967 and 1978, features the only band deemed worthy of closing the old place down. The Grateful Dead performed three sets of relaxed, often inspired music that night, most of which is captured here--favorites like "Dark Star" showcase their often almost telepathic improvisatory skills, while covers like "Johnny B. Goode" and "Good Lovin'" show that they're also not averse to pure entertainment.
