Gram Parsons Archives Vol.1: Live at the Avalon Ballroom 1969 is a twenty-seven song, two-disc set released November 6, 2007, by Amoeba Records, taken from two shows at the Avalon Ballroom in San Francisco when theFlying Burrito Brothers opened for the Grateful Dead. The album features live versions of several songs never officially released by the band, such as "She Once Lived Here" and "Train Song".

Amoeba Records co-founder Dave Prinz found tapes of the two shows among the 16,000 hours of material in the Grateful Dead's vault, and after considerable lobbying, convinced Grateful Dead sound engineer Owsley Stanley, who oversaw the Dead's material, to license the Burritos’ material to Amoeba's record label. It was regarded as a "coup" because Stanley, a.k.a. the Bear, hadn't licensed anything from his personal vault since 1970
