This Grateful Dead classic was often performed at live shows and was more of a jam than a song, since it was sometimes over 30 minutes long. Widely considered the Dead's signature song, it was written by Jerry Garcia and Robert Hunter. In So Many Roads: The Life and Times of the Grateful Dead, David Browne explains that "Dark Star" represented a "turning point for the Dead on several levels. During this period, the Dead were transitioning from a more typical band image and moving into the -hippie" image they'd eventually embody. They were looking less than a standard rock band and more like a "gang of bemused hippie ranchers," in Browne's words.

Dark Star is a live album by the rock group the Grateful Dead. It was recorded on May 4, 1972, at the Olympia Theatre in Paris, France. It contains only one song from that concert - a version of "Dark Star" that, including an embedded drum solo, is almost 40 minutes long.
