Bill Graham Presents: Last Days at the Fillmore (1971) 🔔 Subscribe to Live & Loud channel: http://bit.ly/44hzHM1 Bill Graham Presents: Last Days at the Fillmore captures the final week of San Francisco’s legendary Fillmore West, bringing together many of the artists who helped define the San Francisco Sound for one last celebration before the venue closed its doors in July 1971. Filmed across the Fillmore West’s final five nights, the feature-length documentary features the Grateful Dead performing “Casey Jones” and “Johnny B. Goode,” Santana performing “Incident at Neshabur” and “In a Silent Way,” Quicksilver Messenger Service performing “Fresh Air” and “Mojo,” along with Jefferson Airplane, Hot Tuna, It’s a Beautiful Day, Cold Blood, the Elvin Bishop Group, Lamb and more. The film goes beyond the stage, capturing Bill Graham and his team behind the scenes as they prepare to close one of the most important venues in rock history. Rehearsal footage, candid backstage moments and performances from across the closing week document not only the end of the Fillmore West, but the closing chapter of a remarkable period in San Francisco music. By 1971, the Fillmore West had become inseparable from the rise of psychedelic rock and the Bay Area counterculture. The Grateful Dead, Santana, Jefferson Airplane, Quicksilver Messenger Service and their contemporaries helped turn San Francisco into one of the centers of American rock music. Last Days at the Fillmore captures many of those musicians together at the venue that helped give them a stage. Watch the complete film and experience the final days of the Fillmore West.
