Notes: sbd - kaplan (2 addntl tracks from PBS broadcast) [2007-08-27]Sound quality varies from B to A-. H2H a tasty hint of where this song was going, C>R and NFA > SS > NFA, Midnight Hour are all goo dtunes, but this format didn't allow for epic GD. the jam at the end with Santana and JA is typical of these events - just too many people playing at once, with a rotating solo or leader. No chance for ensemble magic. For completists only.

For the remainder, I used the previous circulating (PBS) Pro Shot DVD of the mono recording then heavy editing using Cool Edit Pro adding (among other things) a simulated stereo effect. Other then the 3 Dead songs, the remainder does not sound great. IMHO however, it sounds better then the original mono recording and overall very enjoyable! Video Source: Circulating PRO SHOT (PBS) DVD: The entire video IMHO is in near perfect quality considering it is a 1970 recording!

Filmed at San Francisco's legendary Family Dog Ballroom on February 4th 1970, "A NIGHT AT THE FAMILY DOG" is an amazing document of the entire Haight-Ashbury scene distilled into one incredible night of performances from three of the era's most definitive bands: Santana, the Grateful Dead, and Jefferson Airplane. Produced by poet and jazz critic Ralph J. Gleason as part of a documentary series for the National Educational Television Network, the concert film boasts two songs by Santana, three by the Grateful Dead - featuring original member Ron "Pig Pen" McKernan on "Hard To Handle", two by Jefferson Airplane, and an all-star jam with members of all three bands for an exuberant testament to one of the most exciting yet ephemeral moments in rock history!!! <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Screen Captures (more in previews ~ see below) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ UPDATE ~ To preview a SAME show "In The Midnight Hour" slideshow SCREEN CAPS video "WMV" file: http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/gd1970-02-04.html http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/santana08.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/santana09.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/santana10.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/gd03.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/gd02.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/gd05.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/gd07.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/gd10.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/gd14.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/gd01.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/ja01.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/ja05.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/ja09.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/ja13.jpg http://www.goodbear.com/gd1970-02-04/ja14.jpg The 1st Lossless Legs Project to start "In The Midnight Hour" eastern on Saturday 10/14/2006!!!
