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!
A Huge Thanks to All who make this happen, such a fun way to start the holidays
Charlotte?
I think that is Vince on the Keys.
The only time that this combo happened, according to Deadbase was in 1991, at a show I attended.
Cleary that is wrong because Brent is on this and Garcia is playing “Freedom Jazz Dance” during Space, which was something he quoted quite a bit during the early 80s. So, why am I not able to find this??
In all the previous years of the 30 Days in November the downloaded files are 320 kbps mp3 files. The first download for 2024 is 128 kbps. Can we get 320 kbps files? Thanks!
I did not always gravitate to the Phil Zone but when I did I danced my ass off. Rest Easy Phil, and Thank You for a REAL GOOD TIME. This is a great Nov tradition to keep the community vibrant, Thank You dead.net.
