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!
If that isn't straight out of a detective movie, I wouldn't know what is. Obviously stated but I can't understand why. Could be due to some other things taking place that year? IMO this tour rocks from start to finish.
Over 10 hours of free music is a great early Christmas Present. As hornsby said, been an easy year. All the best to all of you!
been a fun and easy year with a giant pile of great tunes to show for it. did you catch the rain at the end of the spectrum show? one of the better versions. anyone else been jiving on the winterland 77 from couple days ago? listened to it every day since. thanks Dave and 30 days. Let's meet back here in a year and see how far into dystopia we've devolved. Take care and good luck
What did Dorthey say when she clicked her heels? Dave means it.
