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!
Just to satisfy everyone's technical needs, throw out a 1st audience tape from back when we used to ONLY get them in the parking lots..
So easy and I blew it…time to buckle in
This is a very nice version of one of my least favorite Grateful Dead songs. Don't know why but I've never appreciated the song...but this one, with the Midi and Smooth Vocal harmony is pretty Sweet.
Not sure why so many are worried about the bit-rate and not the point of the game (Where and When). Let's have some fun you all. Blessings
Thanks Dave
Many references refer to unknown location, had to go to a few old places for a mention, even a compendium of sorts. Pretty sure I found it with an offhand comment on an old website i had used before, but as usual anomalies and such leave me unsure like the crowd applauding at end and such. but that was fun.
