Rockin' at the Red Dog Saloon (1965)


Opening in June 1965, the Red Dog Saloon in Virginia City, Nevada, was the prototype for the hippie dance halls of San Francisco, the proving ground for new groups like the Grateful Dead and the Great Society, and the outlaw enclave where Bill Ham invented the psychedelic light show. Melding raucous vintage footage with recent interviews, this brilliant documentary is essential for anyone interested in
the kinetic rise of Si
xties rock.
