''Steal Your Face'' is a live double album by the Grateful Dead, released in June 1976. The album was recorded live in concert between October 16 and October 20, 1974, at San Francisco's Winterland Ballroom as part of the band's then-"farewell run". The title of the album derives from the lyrics of "He's Gone", a song that does not appear on the album ('Like I told ya, what I said, steal your face right off your head'). In an interview, Jerry Garcia said: "None of us liked it. I'm sure even Phil and Owsley didn't like it that much. I think part of it was that we were not working, and we didn't have anything else to deliver."〔(''Steal Your Face'' ) at the Grateful Dead Family Discography〕 Despite the discontent of the band, the album was issued under duress in order to fulfill a contractual obligation to United Artists. The cover art featured a logo (a grinning skull with a lightning bolt on the frontal bone) designed by Owsley Stanley and rendered by Bob Thomas. The logo has since been identified as the "steal your face," or "stealie" logo, though it first appeared on the cover of ''History of the Grateful Dead, Volume One (Bear's Choice)''. Although the album was released during the band's working life (and with its full consent), it was omitted from the 2004 Rhino Records ''Beyond Description (1973–1989)'' boxed set that otherwise collected all of the Dead's studio and live works from this era. Instead, a 5-CD album called ''The Grateful Dead Movie Soundtrack'', which documents the same run of shows as ''Steal Your Face'', was released concurrently with the boxed set, with only one song duplicated from that box set. Casey Jones was used, in an abbreviated form, on that box from the same night as from this album, while other repeats such as Stella Blue, Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodeloo, and U.S. Blues were from different nights of that stand than this record. ==Track listing== ;Side one #"Promised Land" (Chuck Berry) – 3:17 #"Cold Rain and Snow" (trad., arr.
