The Grateful Dead Full Concert: 04/18/1970 at Family Dog in San Francisco

Venue: Family Dog on the Great Highway Location: San Francisco, California, United States Date: April 18, 1970

On April 18, 1970, the Grateful Dead performed at the Family Dog at The Great Highway in San Francisco, showcasing their improvisational style and blending genres like rock, blues, and folk. At this stage in their career, the band had recently released the studio album *Workingman's Dead* in June 1970, which included classic tracks such as "Uncle John's Band" and "Casey Jones." However, this live recording predates that release, emphasizing the band's transition towards a more polished sound without sacrificing their live spontaneity. Notably, the setlist from this performance features early fan favorites like "Friend of the Devil" and "Cumberland Blues," indicating the band's growing repertoire and their ability to weave narrative and improvisation into their live shows. The confluence of their evolving sound and energetic performances during this era solidified their status as a seminal live act in rock music.
