The Fillmore West closed in early summer 1971 with five nights of all-star concerts. The storied San Francisco venue had become an institution, an integral part of the West Coast music scene of the '60s and an essential element of the mythology of rock 'n' roll. It was sent off in a blaze of glory, spotlighting bands - including the Grateful Dead and Santana - that had risen to fame there. The madness leading up to those final shows, and the concerts themselves were filmed for Fillmore: The Last Days, a gritty, behind-the-scenes look at a facinating moment in rock history and a showcase for great performances by iconic artists who epitomized "the San Francisco Sound". Originally release in 1971 and long out-of-print, the documentary film makes its DVD debut.
