30 Days of Dead
It's a Dead Head's most wonderful time of the year! Welcome to another 30 days of unreleased Grateful Dead tracks from the vault, one for every day of the month, selected by archivist and producer David Lemieux. The tracks are yours, 100% free gua-ran-teed, but the real fun is taking part in the challenge for the chance to win some sweet swag from the Dead.
Those of you who know what to do, feel free to skip right on ahead. For those of you who need a refresher, here's the drill:
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 70s show? Each day we'll post a song 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 just starting to warm it up at Winterland? Is that Pigpen's harmonica we hear? Brent on keys? If you think you know, lob your answer in and you just might find yourself taking home our daily prize of a 2025 Grateful Dead wall calendar or the grand prize – a copy of limited, numbered, FRIEND OF THE DEVILS: APRIL '78 boxed set!
Help!!! The Cold Rain from 10/28/84 is full of glitches!!!! it is fugly, I downloaded the MP3 file the morning of the 19th (Tuesday) and it does not playback well. Did David L. swap it out yet for a better version? Was he made aware of this grievous error???
Am I the only who has the feeling we are going to wake up Thanksgiving morning with a search for "Drums"? Not that it would be horrible in any way, just a real time-consuming search as we prepare to feast.
Please submit your answer at the bottom of the page not in comments.
Thanks
Where?
Happy when I can find the shows before I head to work. Then I know my music line up that will be playin in my office. Today it will be this show and the second half of yesterday's show.
