'Grateful Dead Movie' soundtrack gets 10-LP box set release

'The Grateful Dead Movie' soundtrack is finally getting a full-fledged vinyl release with a 10-LP box set coming this spring.

For the Grateful Dead, the music from the vault never stops.

The newest special vinyl to drop: "The Grateful Dead Movie" soundtrack, a 10-LP collection featuring 44 tracks, first made available in 2005 on CD and now finally coming to vinyl.

"The Grateful Dead Movie," directed by Jerry Garcia and Leon Gast ("When We Were Kings") and released in theaters in June 1977, captured the band's five-night run of shows at the Winterland arena in San Francisco in October 1974.

The dates were pivotal in the Dead's legendary career as it marked the end of its usage of the Wall of Sound, constructed from hundreds of loudspeakers for live performances. The shows came before a planned band hiatus, too, which brought increased focus to the gigs. (The Grateful Dead wouldn't tour again until June 1976.)
