30 Days of Dead
The rumors are true! Each day in November we give away a high-quality MP3 download. That's 30 days of unreleased Grateful Dead tracks from the vault, selected by Dead archivist and producer David Lemieux. Intrigued? We're also going to put your knowledge to the test and give you the chance to win some sweet swag from the Dead.
If you've been here before, jump right in with the link below. If you need a little refresher, here's how it all goes down:
You know your Ables from your Bakers from your C's, but can your finely tuned ears differentiate the cosmic "comeback" tour from a spacey 70's show? Each day we'll post a free download from one of the Dead's coveted shows. Will it be from that magical night at Madison Square Garden in '93 or from way back when they were warming it up at Winterland? Is that Pigpen's harmonica we hear? Brent on keys? Step right up and try your hand all November long and win prizes while you're at it.
Guess the venue and date correctly and you'll be automatically entered to win the prize of the day - a 2024 Grateful Dead Wall Calendar. Each day a winner will be selected at random, so take your time and make your best guess! Answer correctly and you will also be automatically entered to win the Grand Prize - a copy of our SOLD OUT HERE COMES SUNSHINE 1973 boxed set.
Today's Song
Hint:
Ending our 2023 30 Days Of Dead in style, we're leaving you with a some classic Dead from an important tour in Grateful Dead history

As the 1980s rolled into 1990, the Dead's post-midnight set on 1/1/90 included this combination is a wildly dissonant "Victim Or The Crime" before heading into the first California "Dark Star "since 7/13/84

As others have mentioned in earlier post be kind and don’t give away the date. Clues that are not obvious are welcomed. Here is how I go about researching. First, download and listen. Chat with good friend about what era we think the song is from. Break out Deadbase for every time played and set list. Deadlist for set list and if I can identify song before or after Deadlist provides easy way to query song pairings. Then use archive to compare versions . What is your process? Happy hunting brothers and sisters!
Hey Now, please don’t give away the date. The fun is in the hunt. Ok to give obscure clues but nothing to obvious.
Appreciate this so much - look forward to it every year.
Pretty sure it’s 6/12/76
In all these years, this is only the second time I've gotten it on the first guess, (except for a few medleys that only had a couple of possibilities). I really love this version. Now I'll check out the whole show.
