Movie Reviews of The Grateful Dead: Dead Ahead
Movie Review: Buy it - you won't be sorry
Summary: 5 Stars
I've owned this one for a looong time. Dang good concert and the Dead are in top form throughout. Having gone to Dead shows, I can say that sitting back in the comfort of your favorite chair and enjoying the Dead in great audio and video is waay better than it was trying to see them live because 1970's Deadheads were the rudest most inconsiderate people I ever had to STAND through a concert with. The so-called COMEDY team of Frankin and Davis that is incorporated into the video is an insult to the show and just makes me sick but if you live through that you will be treated to an awesome concert. Bear in mind, this is mostly an accoustic show, but as that goes it is the best I've ever seen. Jerry has the best guitar-ripping fingers in history. Its a 70's show and many fave Dead tunes are missing but what is performed is a rare treat that I highly recommend if you like the Dead. Plenty of long guitar jams if you like those - which I do.Movie Review: How could you not give this five stars!? Best Dead DVD in years..
Summary: 5 Stars
So I netflixed this, man am I glad I did. The sound quality is incredible as is the song selection. The video is great for something that was filmed in 1980, you can tell they really cleaned it up, and the many different camera shots made me feel I was right there. The Skits in between were fun, the cameo bits with the band members.
The best part of this DVD? The special features. The 5-6 extra songs included are the best ones on the DVD!
If you're a fan just go get this. Really great show - although I think it's a compilation of different nights - not sure about that.
Either way, a very unique and entertaining Dead DVD.

I have read some of the bad reviews on this website, so I went and bought Dead Ahead!! This rocks, the people that are compalianing about poor sound quality... go buy a new sound system, sweet set list, great cinematography.... Do yourself a favor find yourself on the better end of a good time, and get yourself dead ahead.Movie Review: Awesome DVD!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you have the VHS, scrap it and upgrade to the DVD. The 50 minutes of additional footage is well worth it...Not to mention the awesome 5.1 sound! It sounds like you're actually in the audience. I highly recommend this DVD!Movie Review: Great Dead

If you like early Brent-era Grateful Dead, you'll love this DVD which finds Jerry and the band in great form. Bobby sports an Izod polo shirt, marking him as the godfather of prep school hippies nationwide.
