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!
Fer sure this is one of mine as well, then I started to wonder how many eras there are... hahaha. I think I fallen down the rabbit hole on day 23.
It was that echo on one instrument right at the beginning. Thinking it had to be from 1 or 2 certain years based on how they had a relaxed way of starting one of these songs. Nice guitar tones on this 2 fer
Holy Moses Malone Folks! Your supposed to be Deadheads, Hippies, free spirits.
It's just a game ( And a silly one at that) Stop with the hate and anguish. Who cares ? we get free music and we all know you are so much smarter than the rest of us. Lighten up Francis !
The Boys are "Firing On All Cylinders".
I could not agree more. In my 12 years of playing this is the absolute worst I have ever seen. Someone posts the obvious answer, through the obvious clue, gets reminded not to post obvious clues, then someone else does the same thing 45 minutes later.
Like I said: I could not agree more.
