I don't, no, sorry. I searched YouTube for "Hippie Temptation," which was the documentary's title, and didn't come up with anything but this clip. Found a couple other sites that look like they had the whole thing at one time, but it had been taken down for terms of use violation. It's playing at the Red Vic in San Francisco June 29-30, though: http://www.redvicmoviehouse.com/show.php?pageid=471 And you can get it on DVD: http://www.thevideobeat.com/store/music-documentaries/hippie-heaven-vol-1.html Huh, just read that the documentary was so well received that it actually gave birth a couple of months later to "60 Minutes" with Reasoner and Mike Wallace. There's lots of other videos about hippies on YouTube. I suspect this segment is all there was of the Grateful Dead in that particular documentary. > Thanks for posting this Judy!
