"The Duke '78 show had been floating around in video tape trading circles going back to the 1980s. It wasn't great, but being from such an underrepresented video period in the Dead's history, it was a holy grail. The sound and audio mix wasn't very good on the original video, and we're thrilled to offer you this restored version of the video synced with Jeffrey Norman's newly mastered audio from the Betty Cantor-Jackson reels. Kudos to the restoration team that painstakingly synced the new audio to the original video as well as can be. It's not perfect, but it's much better than we've seen and heard in the past. And a special thanks to Christopher Hazard for providing us with the best video of the show." - David Lemieux

FRIEND OF THE DEVILS: APRIL 1978 19CD BOX SET Filled to the brim with peak performances from the Grateful Dead's post-hiatus period, this Friend of the Devils collection captures the historic tour where "Drums" begat "Space," morphed into "Drums"➡️"Space" and cemented the Rhythm Devils' second-set power move from the music business to the "transportation business.” Featuring eight previously unreleased stellar shows, the limited-edition collection features liner notes by the late, great Steve Silberman and original artwork by Matthew Brannon.

Will you come with me? Won't you come with me? There's no better place to take a long strange trip with the Grateful Dead than right here. We've got music from every single studio album and a bevy of live albums, to boot. There are celebrated live performances from the 70s and 80s and official videos with more skeletons than you can shake your bones at, an exclusive seaside series on what's to come from the band's rich catalog and details on meet-ups all across the promised land. If it's community you’re after, try your hand at our yearly DEAD COVERS PROJECT competition and connect with fellow Dead Heads around the world. Heck, keep your eyes peeled you might even catch a glimpse of Pigpen on keys, Jerry in a GROOVE, Bobby tellin' tales, Mickey talkin' space, Phil and friends, Bill on the beach, or anyone from our extended family.

It's all happenin' right here. Subscribe and you won't miss a thing.
