Description:
Starring: The Grateful Dead
Directed By: Len Dell’Amico Description: Rich Stadium, Orchard Park, N.Y. July 4, 1989
The entire band is in peak musical form, making 'Grateful Dead: Truckin' Up To Buffalo' one of the very best concerts. Arguably considered to be the Grateful Dead's best tour of their last 15 years of touring, this complete concert at Buffalo's Rich Stadium on July 4, 1989, features the quintessential Fourth of July song, 'U.S. Blues.'
With the picture taken from the master 1' video tape, shot with six cameras, and featuring an outstanding new 5.1 and stereo mix produced from the master multi-track tapes, this nearly three hour concert features such staples as 'Touch of Grey,' 'Morning Dew,' 'All Along The Watchtower,' 'Deal,' 'Terrapin Station,' and is sure to be a collector’s favorite!

Rating:  - Nothing Left To Do But Smile Smile Smile...
I consider myself a Deadfan & realist. This is a good solid show- no regrets on the purchase at all. I have most of their DVDs and VHS's and this is right in there... while I did not go to this show, it is a solid representation of what the good late '80s shows were like. 'Downhill From Here' is my favorite, but I was at those shows too- so take it for whatever its worth.
For those who just can't get enough- splurge and make the purchase!
Rating: - Highly Recommend this show for your viewing pleasure
While its not my favorite of all the video official releases, its sure up there. The boys are having a lot of fun (Jerry is practically doing arobics), and it shows. Songs are not supercharged but very deliberate and inspired. CR&S is very methodically great. Deal is a smoker. Set II has some significant highlights. Ship of Fools is played as close to perfection as the guys could get. And Morning Dew to boot.
All in all, a very good show and a lot of fun. Summer time come and gone!
Wanna know the kicker? All of the 1989 and 1990 Summer Tours are on this high quality video.
Rating: - Excellant Sound and Film Quality
By far the best GD cronicle that I have seen. The energy level of their play was certainly at a peak here. I was happy to see that a release of this quality had a playlist that included some of their lesser known works.
Rating:  - GD Best in Show of the live DVD's
I "got on the bus" on the 12/31/82 show, and in my opinion, if you want to know what the fuss was all about with this band you should pick up this DVD and the "Dozin' at the Knick" CD. The stages of the Grateful Dead can best be measured by the tenure of the keyboard players, giving Brent two periods (early and late). "Late Brent" is defined as the period where he was given a chance to lead once or twice a show, as opposed to "Early Brent" where it was more like once or twice a month. "Late Brent" is where the Dead finally got it all together as a professional act, and you get the benefit of all that in this DVD:
+ Equipment and sound at the show is clean, bugfree, and solid
+ Camera and recording chops are practiced and at their best
+ This particular DVD comes at a point in the technology where they've figured that out too. 5.1 sound is clean and strong... Phil (bass) is ALL THERE and the "rain" sound effects during "Looks Like Rain" come from behind you!
For various Deadhead reasons, I prefer this show over all the other commercial releases. Jerry's voice is not entirely up to snuff, but his playing is, and this is basically my kinda show. Touches like:
+ Jerry plays slide, as well as the Tiger guitar all show.
+ Brent sings a verse in "Women Smarter." Smokes on the keys too.
+ "Deal" starts easy and comfy, then raises to a smokin' blaze. All JG.
+ I still get a rush out of Brent's keyboards on "Touch of Grey." ... Read More
Rating: - Good DVD production, OK Musical Performance
I'd give it 5 stars for overall production. (My only picky complaint would be that they didn't have decent sustained shots of Bill or Micky on the drums except for the drum solos.) It was a nice option to be able to view lyrics to the songs while watching the show. I'd give it 3 stars for musical performance though. This was not Jerry at his finest (lots of little clams) but he was still the driving force on stage. My favorite moment was the audience singing "Not Fade Away" in unison after the band left the stage, exhorting the Dead NOT to disappear.
