Resurrection Rag was written for the soundtrack of a film based on the George R.R. Martin novel Armageddon Rag. The book features a band called The Nazgūl. The film producer Phil DeGuere, who knew the Grateful Dead, put together his own version of The Nazgūl to play music for the soundtrack. Robert Hunter was part of the group and wrote songs for the soundtrack. This real life The Nazgūl recorded some of this music which circulates widely but has never been officially released. The Nazgūl were Robert Hunter, John Cipollina, Merl Saunders, Tony Saunders and Gaylord Birch. The film was not completed.
