Subtitles: Dutch, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, French The Grateful Dead are a unique phenomenon. One of the most successful live touring bands in the world, their longevity is founded on their desire to play music their way, coupled with an extraordinarily close relationship to their huge following. Coming out of the San Francisco Bay area in the mid 1960's, the core band (there were many changes over the years) comprised Jerry Garcia, Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Ron 'Pigpen' McKerman, Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann. The Grateful Dead always refused to be part of the mainstream, even though their 1970 album American Beauty sold over a million copies in the U.S. Anthem To Beauty tells the story of the band and their journey from the experimental Anthem Of The Sun (recorded in 1967/1968) to the accessible, 'countryish' American Beauty. It is told in the band's own words and includes a reae interview with lyricist Robert Hunter. The film also features a wealth of rare vintage film footage of the Grateful Daed in their prime, including television appearances, home videos and classic recordings like Ripple, Box of Rain, Truckin' and Mountains of The Moon and it all adds up to a riveting portrait of one of the rock world's most controversial bands. Other contributions in this acclaimed film come from David Crosby )of Crosby, Stills and Nash), Grateful Dead biographer Dennis McNally, keyboard virtuoso Tom Constanten, producer Steven Barncaro, legendary engineer Dan Healy and Warner Records cheif Joe Smith.
