YouTuber and video engineer extraordinaire Christopher Hazard delivered a New Year’s Eve treat in time for the new year—an HD remaster of the Dead’s 1978 New Year’s Eve show at the Winterland.
The Blues Brothers and NRPS opened for the Dead. Before the Dead’s three sets, promoter Bill Graham flies above the crowd in a giant joint. The Dead then get the party started with a rocking “Sugar Magnolia.”
